Great tour of the tulips and windmills!

This was an outstanding tour! Bianca was a great tour guide. Loved the tulips, they were so beautiful..The cheese farm was a great visit and we lived the windmill! Lunch was outstanding.

Incredible, personalized tour!

Esther was just incredible!! We booked a full day "off the beaten path" with for tulips, windmills, and cheese during a planned trip to Amsterdam. Esther was prompt, professional, incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and a wonderful guide. We felt very lucky to experience everything without the pressure of hoards of other tourists. It was clear from the first stop the care and consideration Esther puts into her relationships with local artisans and farmers. It makes for a truly unique and special experience. (She was also great answering all the questions from my 10 yo!) Truly cannot recommend Esther and Windmill Girl Tours highly enough!! (Afterall, she grew up inside a real windmill!!)

Operator response

I love creating personal and authentic experiences, and it means a lot to hear that you appreciated that. I hope to welcome you back again for another beautiful adventure in Holland! Warm regards, Esther

Perfect tour experience

We spent time communicating with Esther about the things most important to us. She listened and offered options and advice. Communication was spot on, transportation excellent and a day that not only met our expectations but exceeded them. She has lived in the area all her life and brings local experience to the tour in addition to the regular tour information one expects. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a comprehensive standard tour to special requests. Esther listens, is up front about what is realistic, finds ways to engage all participants (children to seniors) and provides a great experience!!

Operator response

Tulips, Tulips, and more Tulips!

Had a wonderful day. Tulips were spectacular. The Dutch countryside is beautiful. Got a fascinating lesson about the history and working of the windmill system. And we bought more cheese than we can possibly eat! Bianca was a great guide. Highly recommend private tour for this type of day/outing.

Operator response

Thank you, Mark! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed your day with Bianca, the tulips, the countryside, and everything off the beaten path. The real Holland! Say cheese! ;) Warm regards! Esther
