Great tour and tour guide!
It was a great day filled with very scenic areas, wonderful sites, and Hamza was an excellent tour guide.

Windmill, cheese, tour
We liked the tour but we thought that it was a private tour with guide. We got dropped off in each location and we had to fend for ourselves. The tour information said we were to make the last stop for an hour in Marken. That part of the tour was skipped. We don’t know why. We don’t think we got our moneys worth because of this.

We loved the sites in this excursion!
Note to NCL travelers, this is a 45 minute commute from the port of IJmuiden and is not consudered a "guided tour". However Hamza saved the day. He picked us up, showed us the sites, stayed with us and had some great recommendations. Plus he is extremely polite.

Great Private Tour – Fair Price, Reliable and Punctual
I had a fantastic experience on the Private Countryside Tour from Amsterdam. The pricing was very reasonable for a private tour, and the team was trustworthy and professional throughout. Our guide was punctual, knowledgeable, and made the entire day enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore the Dutch countryside with a reliable and friendly guide.

Amazing countryside experience
I have never experienced the Dutch countryside this beautifully before. Truly amazing, magical, and very special to be here. The drivers are also very friendly, punctual, and reliable. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting the Netherlands. Thanks Fetu!😊

Beautiful countryside with our local driver
We had an unforgettable countryside tour with the local driver, he took us to the zaanse schans, cheese farm and volendam. I got the feeling that he was very experienced and did everything to give us a good tour. thank you very much and I will definitely come back

Horrific
This is not a “tour”. This is a private car/driver. This driver had some kind of sores all over his hands and a sore on his head that he picked the entire time he drove us around… lovely! Also, admission to the specialty windmills, museum, bathrooms, etc is not included. The main entrance to the windmills, clog factory and cheese factory is free to everyone, so this description is misleading. The driver did not appreciate having to turn on his AC in his vehicle. This “tour” was absolutely useless. When booking a “private tour” I would have assumed the driver would have been able to tell us about the countryside, the towns, the history, etc. 100% just book through a hotel or a different service. Total waste of money.

Operator response
However, we find the review quite disrespectful, also towards our driver, despite the fact that he did his utmost for you. There is no mention of a private guide present, so this is not included. We certainly do not pay for a for the toilet that you are going to enter and a map that you bought yourself.
