Fantastic 5.0
I booked this hotel near Zaandam Station, a 15-minute train ride from Amsterdam, because hotel prices in Amsterdam were outrageously high. It was the right decision. Moving around the city with heavy suitcases on cobblestone streets or on cramped trams would have been a nightmare. The building itself is cute enough to be a tourist attraction, and the inside is modern, clean, and the bathrooms were spotless. There's also a HEMA (a popular store for general merchandise) and a Primark (like a British version of Uniqlo) nearby, so I enjoyed shopping too.

We visited the 3 places and feel that there was not enough time given to Zaanse Schans. There was a presentation at each of the locations but due to photo opportunities at Zaanse Schans windmills, there was not enough time to visit the shops for sounvenirs. Would suggest to cutback time at Volendam as there was more than enough time to take lunch and visit the shops. Although Marken itself is interesting, there is not much to see while taking the boat from Volendam to Marken. Truly enjoyed the tour and is highly recommend.

Very glad that we made the decision to join this day tour instead of getting there by ourselves. We are very grateful and happy that we had 小芳 as our guide for the trip. She was not only very friendly and helpful, also very thoughtful and took great care of us! There was a traffic accident on the highway, on our way to the Giethoorn area which resulted us being almost an hour late. 小芳 was worried about us not being able to get the best out of the area, she skipped lunch and walked with us , explaining in detail about the area. A very enjoyable trip with very good narratives from 小芳 !

Awesome experience. We were very lucky to have the sun out in this gloomier season, while enjoying the sights of Zaans Schans and Giethoorn at its fullest. The tour guide is not only knowledgable, witty and patient, he is also an all in one, being our minivan driver and our boat tour driver at the same time throughout this whole tour. Highly recommended if you are looking for a relaxing tour.

The tour was good overall, but it felt a little rushed at times. The first stop wasn’t something I was really interested in, but the rest of the itinerary was great! Our tour guide was excellent and made the experience enjoyable! thank you

Reinier is the best guide that I never seen before. He is so fantastic. He made my trip wonderful and so happy, enjoyable. He knew what things to show us. All interesting and important to watched them. After finished he suggested us to go to have nice restaurant around the city. I will put next trip with him again. Thanks Reinier.
