Visita às Aldeias Holandês Sonhadoras: Giethoorn, Zaanse Schans e mais

Our driver, Reinier, made this an exceptional tour. He provided a wealth of information all along the tour. What made it really special was his charming and engaging personality. He seemed interested in giving his best to all of us. He cared that we received a quality experience and we did.

Alex was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and made the day very enjoyable! He was timely with pickup and easy to communicate with. He also made great recommendations along the way.

This was an absolutely beautiful, interesting tour from start to finish. Alex was so kind, gracious and hospitable from the moment we met him, and was really invested in giving us an excellent experience in every way. My husband is a history buff. Alex gave us some fascinating historical and cultural info, and was able to give my husband insightful answers to every question he asked! Alex also made sure we got to Zaanse Schans before the crowds, which made our experience there so much more enjoyable and efficient. The shoemaking demo there was fantastic. The fishing village was absolutely lovely, and Giethoorn is not to be missed! Alex gave us a personal boat tour of the canals and lake there, and gave us plenty of time to walk through the lovely village and eat a relaxing lunch. The entire tour was delightful, and a photographer’s dream with all the unique, beautiful sights along the way. We highly recommend doing this tour with Alex!

Our tour guide Alex (of AlxTours) gave a wonderful day tour of Durgerdam (small village), Geithoorn, a tulip field, and Zaanse Schans! I appreciated Alex's descriptions of the towns, polders, and how the land was reclaimed from the sea. He gave an informative description at the start of each destination we visited. Charming Dugerdam was our first stop. Then, Alex smartly took us to Geithoorn, a beautiful village of canals and thatched roof cottages, to arrive before the onslaught of tourists. Alex took our small group of 7 people on a relaxing, lovely boat ride through the village and out in the lake. Then we had time to walk around Geithoorn. I visited the Olde Maat Hus museum, which was very nice and provided a good understanding of the history and culture of Geithoorn. Walking along the canals and across the bridges was so peaceful. Our group left Geithoorn as the mob of late morning tourists were arriving and getting their boats stuck in "bumper boat" jams in the canals. This was smartly timed by Alex. We stopped at a tulip field on the way back which was absolutely beautiful. We were able to take gorgeous photos in the field (this was April 27). Zaanse Schans was our last stop. It was very crowded, yet still very picturesque and charming. The clog making and cheese making demonstrations and shops were very good, though very crowded. Alex did a great job navigating our small group of 7 people through the crowds and getting us into a cheesemaking demonstration. The operating windmill closed just before I got there, but if I had gone earlier I would have been able to get in. There was another windmill we were able to go inside, though it was not operating at the time. All in all, this was a wonderful day, and Alex expertly organized the destinations so we would get the most out of the day in each beautiful location. I highly recommend this tour and AlxTours! And, to note, Alex picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel; very helpful and convenient. He also gave us a great restaurant recommendation for dinner at an authentic Dutch restaurant in Amsterdam.

Thanks to our knowledgeable guide for covering so much ground and showcasing the best of the Netherlands in one day!

Superb. The road from Amsterdam to the sights is a delight. The guide gave us a lot of useful information about Holland and what we are going to visitI strongly recommend. Alex is wonderful, professional and kind. Go ! You won t regret.
