Description

Experience the best of Holland on a full-day guided tour from Amsterdam, exploring the iconic Zaanse Schans and the enchanting village of Giethoorn. Your adventure begins as you board a comfortable, air-conditioned bus, setting off to discover the unique culture and landscapes of the Netherlands.

At Zaanse Schans, an open-air museum just outside Amsterdam, marvel at the sight of authentic, still-working windmills. Step into a traditional Dutch clog shop, witness skilled artisans at work, and visit a local cheese factory to learn about and taste classic Dutch cheeses. The area’s rich windmill history offers fascinating insights into the nation’s past.

The journey continues across the scenic Dutch polders, lands reclaimed from the sea, leading you to the storybook village of Giethoorn, often called the 'Venice of the North.' Here, you’ll embark on a one-hour guided boat tour, gliding beneath charming wooden bridges as your captain shares local legends and the village’s unique heritage.

After your boat tour, enjoy free time to explore Giethoorn at your own pace. Wander along peaceful canals, rent a bike or boat, or simply soak up the tranquil atmosphere. Indulge in a delicious local meal before your comfortable return to Amsterdam, making lasting memories along the way.

This tour includes round-trip transportation, guided visits, and a boat ride, but meals and personal expenses are not included. Don’t miss your chance to discover two of Holland’s most picturesque destinations in one unforgettable day—secure your spot now before spaces fill up!
