Reviews summaryOur guide Eric is amazing. He is very nice, funny, polite, and especially informative when it comes to introducing Netherlands and the places knowledge. and a great driver as well. I had a great time tracking with this group. the recommended restaurant is delicious! 100 out of 10 experience thank you very much
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.
We wanted to visit both Zaanse Schans and Giethoorn in one day, and this tour turned out to be the perfect choice. Despite the very classic Dutch weather, our whole family had an amazing time! The tour provided plenty of time at each stop to wander, take photos, and enjoy the scenery without feeling rushed. Our guide, Liedse, was an absolute delight! He was very friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable! He kept things engaging the entire day and knew multiple languages for everyone on board. We walked away knowing so much more about the Netherlands thanks to him! He also communicated really well about pick-up times and introduced himself the day before the tour! The transportation was spacious, comfortable, and felt very safe throughout the journey. Overall, a very well-organized tour and a really memorable way to experience two beautiful places in one day!
The places are very beautiful and complemented by the weather which was nice and sunny at times. 1. Giethorn is a beautiful village around lake which is best navigated through boat or a leisure walk. Although, it would be amazing to stay overnight and enjoy the place and scenic beauty. 2. Zaanse Schans was a historic village with windmills, wood shoe and cheese factories. Wind Mills needed a separe ticket. Simon (Guide amd driver) was friendly with a lot of stories about the place.
Really enjoyed the tour. Place was so mesmerizing! Leidse, our tour guide, did so amazing job. He’s very informative and helpful! Even though I’m a solo joiner, he didn’t make me feel left out. Overall, this was such a fun and great experience. Thank you! 😊
Great tour. Eric was clear in explanation and taking good care of us. We were given enough time to explore on our own. Recommended lunch place was good as well. Giethoorn was quiet when we were there. Recommended tour.
We had an incredible time on this tour, thanks to our fantastic guide, Leidse! From start to finish, the experience was smooth and enjoyable. Leidse was not only attentive but also engaging and entertaining, making the whole journey a lot of fun. He was very friendly and went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable throughout the trip. He focussed alot on us to ensure we get the experiences that can be cherished in those moments. The communication was easy, and the small van was perfect for the group—comfortable and cozy, with plenty of space for everyone. We also appreciated the amount of free time given to explore the sights at our own pace. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great way to experience the area with a knowledgeable and personable guide. You won’t be disappointed!
The tour is good and not tight and time for each session is enough. The tour guide is friendly and willing to help for photo taking. The car is comfortable, we can take a good rest on the car. The tour guide will share much information of Amsterdam and Netherlands.
once again, our awesome guide, Eric, was very knowledgeable about the places and had real good recommendations. He has great experience, having lived in Giethoorn. highly recommended for the self driven boat ride
it was a wonderful experience with tour guide Surui who speaks mandarin and took very good care of us during the trip. very flexibly arranged the itinerary and even brought us to 2 more spots out of the planned schedule to let us take more nice pictures - the “lego” hotel and a random turnip field nearby the planned attractions. it’s also easy to communicate with him. just wait for the WhatsApp notification the day before to reconfirm the pick up time and place. overall a great experience and a very convenient way to visit the 2 famous tourist spots in a day. highly recommended!
