Great to see the countryside. Tour gave us enough time to spend at towns & to explore a bit. Tour guide was very friendly & knowledgable.

The windmills were great. Volendam was great. The cheese factory was a joke. It was 15 minutes of someone telling us how cheese was made, but not a real example- then sent us to a store to buy cheese. The Dutch shoes were fun to see, but that took 10 minutes. A lot of time was wasted this trip did not have to go from 9:30 to 5:30..

The tour was great! We visited 4 lovely towns outside in The Netherlands. The day was sunny and we all had a good time.
The restaurant recommended by Angel, our tour guide, was spot on.

The trip was very enjoyable although we think it should be reveresed in terms of where you go first as we had little time at Edam and Volendam as these places were rushed and we didnt really get to experience them.

Professional and organized team. We left on time and every moment was taken advantage of to give us information, advice and context of the places we visited. Special thanks to Walter, who took us the entire way and to Silvia, who not only guided us, but made sure that we were all always there and made the tour the best experience. Thank you!

Wygo was very informative. He was funny and knowledgeable. Nothing else to say.
Again you force to write more, otherwise it's impossible to submit.
This is very wrong

Angela is a great guide, full of energy. All 4 locations were extremely busy and she managed the group well. This is really a highlights tour and is a good way to visit the 4 towns in one day. They are definitely worth visiting.

The last stop of the trip was Marken, we went by boat and we didn't spend even 10 minutes in the little town. I would have saved the money for the boat because to see what we saw he could have given us the explanation in Volendam
