“Kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum! Zamanında doğru konuma gitmemize rağmen görevli bizimle iletişim kurmadı, göz teması bile kurmadan başka müşterilere yöneldi. Defalarca rezervasyon saatimizi ve QR kodumuzu göstermemize rağmen hiçbir şekilde ilgilenmedi. Bizi yanlış yerdeymişiz gibi geçiştirdiler. Ancak ara sokakta ana merkezi bulunca oradaki bir çalışan yardımcı oldu ve 30 dakika gecikmeyle bisikletlerimizi alabildik. Bu kadar ilgisiz ve saygısız bir yaklaşıma maruz kalmak kabul edilemez. Boşuna vaktinizi ve moralinizi harcamayın, başka bir yeri tercih edin!”

She picked us up on time at our hotel and during the drive she provided information on where we were and features such as the improvements in a dam project.

“La actividad en bicicleta es buena. El paseo en barco regular. Y la cena no es de comida local, y la que sirven más bien floja. Pero lo peor , es que puedes elegir iniciar la excursión desde tres lugares, pero no es así, solo se inicia en uno. Por eso el tour a pie lo perdimos. Cara para lo que ofrece.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.7 · 3 reviews

Full-day trip to Edam, Volendam, and Marken for canal views, Dutch cheese museum tickets, klompen and stroopwafels, with hotel pickup.

“El guía turístico nos recogió y nos puso en otro tour en autobús con otro guía. Ese tour habría costado menos de la mitad que este. Hizo parada en Zaanse Schans, que no estaba en el programa. No sé si tuvimos una experiencia extraña porque la guía que contratamos se iba de vacaciones o dirigía otro tour hoy (nos dijeron ambas cosas). Pero no recomendaría este tour a este precio; recomiendo reservar el tour completo por tu cuenta.”
