“What can I say! This is one of the best tours ever. Susana has that angel that since moment one she speaks you know this woman is knowledgeable, kind, and enough. She was able to provide accurate information and guidance. She was there reachable at all times making the tour an above and beyond experience. If you get lost and can’t find the red flag, no worries hear in the horizon Susana’s genuine laughter and it will guide you to where you need to be.

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 15,034 reviews · 8 hours · from $32

8-hour bus trip from Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans windmills, Edam cheese, clog-making, and the villages of Volendam and Marken.

“Eight hours on a bus trip! But trips were short, washrooms readily available, and stops had time to take in the area. Juan (?) the guide was quite knowledgeable on the area. There were 5 stops, each different and unique stories. It was quite relaxing and enjoyable for a day out. The meeting place was a ten minute walk from the back of Centraal Station. Recommended for a day out in the countryside.”

“Excellent trip. Traffic issues got us started late, but that's just how Amsterdam is. The timing of the day was perfect. I appreciated how each stop had cultural value. (Sometimes tours include "shopping," which we don't care for.). Our tour guide, Ingrid, was incredible and did a great job making sure everyone understood when to be back at the bus. I usually take tours with a small group but they were all sold out, so we went with this one, and we were not disappointed. Highly recommend!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,063 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $106

Guided day trip from Amsterdam to Keukenhof and Zaanse Schans. Tulips, windmills, clogs, cheese, plus optional canal cruise.

“We really enjoyed this tour, especially Keukenhof and the mills (we went inside the paint and the spice mill). Our tour guide was fantastic and made the whole experience honestly very good!! The only negative was going to the cheese place: the explanation of how to make cheese lasted 3 minutes max, and the cheeses were all bland. I hope they take this part off the future tours.”
