A 10/10 experience, coming from a female solo traveller! It may be more exp than the rest but it’s worth every penny. there is only a small group of us (8 pax) and the guide (Reinier) will take care of you from the start to the end, from preparing water bottles, picking you up directly from the hotel, preparing powerbank, wifi and everything! he makes sure we go early enough to avoid the crowd and get good pictures (he knows the best spots for pics). As compared to a large bus tour, this is a curated tour for smaller groups to understand the history of the places, and this tour includes the additional Lego House in Zandaam and most importantly Giethoorn which is a MUST go cause it’s so charming. I cannot recommend this tour and the tour guide Reiner enough!

This Countryside & Windmills All-In Tour is extremely good value for money. For just S$55 on Klook, you see so much—it's a much better deal than buying from the local Amsterdam agencies, which charge €45 on the ticket.
We loved seeing the inside of a working windmill, watching how clogs are crafted, and catching the Gouda cheese and stroopwafel making demonstrations (plus getting to taste them!). It’s highly educational, fun, and moves at a great, brisk pace. Perfect if you prefer to keep moving and don't want to spend too long in one place. Highly recommended!

First of all, this trip is definitely worth the bucks! There were multiple stops including the windmill, cheese factory, Edam, Volendam & Marken Tour. Personally found that the time in the windmill area was extremely tight, after a few photoshoot we barely had anytime to visit the stores, however places like Edam & Marken Tour I found it a little waste of time as the tour guide stopped and share historic moments in these areas, some of the explanations could’ve been done in the bus ride to reduce time in those area, which were pretty dull. Volendam was an interesting area where we had our lunch recommended by the guide, also more time could be allocated here but overall it was still pleasant. The cheese factory had a nice Dutch Lady sharing how the cheese was processed, there were a good range of cheese for purchase afterward. highly recommended

Our tour guide, Lei Zhen, was incredibly professional. He explained every itinerary item very clearly and had an excellent service attitude! He was also very attentive to everyone's needs, and the arrangements were seamless. His explanations of the attractions were vivid and engaging, and he introduced us to the local cultural characteristics along the way, giving us a deeper understanding of Amsterdam and its customs. The entire trip was filled with laughter and a great atmosphere! Highly recommended to everyone!

This day trip left me with very satisfying memories. Not only did we have perfect weather, with clear blue skies and white clouds all day, but we also met an excellent tour guide, Mr. KunHao. He proactively contacted us the day before the tour, which helped us understand the meeting point in advance. Furthermore, his management of the entire itinerary, explanations, and introductions to local details were all spot-on. Finally, when we returned to the meeting point at 6 PM, he personally bid farewell to each of us at the car door. I was extremely satisfied with the entire trip and hope to have the opportunity to ask KunHao to introduce other sights in the Netherlands in the future. Thumbs up!

Enjoyed this day starting with a quick visit to Lego Village. Saw some traditional windmills that are still operational. Followed by visits to the cheese factory & the clogs factory. The afternoon with the boat ride was truly fun & relaxing!

We booked the Zaanse Schans & Keukenhof day trip on Klook and loved the flexibility of the hop-on, hop-off setup — it let us explore at our own pace without feeling rushed.
I personally enjoyed the windmills at Zaanse Schans, while my mom absolutely loved the beautiful flowers at Keukenhof Gardens. Both spots were stunning in their own way.
Very convenient, well-organized, and perfect for a relaxed day trip. Highly recommended!
