A taste of Holland

Great trip. Check in location was inside This is Holland which wasn't clear on the instructions. Friendly guide. Plenty of cheese to taste. Clog making is fascinating and the windmills are interesting. It's very windy - of course, so wear a coat!

A pleasant and relaxed tour embracing nature. Loved the calmness and beauty of the village with the views of windmills, wooden shoe making, cattle farm and cheese produce. The quiz session during the close of the tour was really engaging and thoughtful. Appreciate the whole team who make the travelers feel contended and cherished. Wish you great success and all the very best. Thank You!

Disappointing

Too commercialized, the windmills seemed to be secondary to the touristy shops. If your purpose is to learn about and see windmills this tour will disappoint.

Windmills and chocolate smell
Agnes_M
, Apr 2022
I went to see windmills with VIATOR tour bus and payed for it but there was some misfortune and I missed the bus on my way back. But there is bus stop near Zaanse Schans museum so I could get back by bus (anyway you need to have day card or something for public transpot). Zaanse Schans is wort visiting. There are very nice little wooden houses and you can see windmills working. You can smell chocolate because there is chocolate factory over the bridge and there is little chocolate shop over the bridge.

Nice, quick getaway to the country

The tour was quite short - perfect if you have a limited amount of time in the Netherlands. If you have more time, opt for the longer tour. The tour bus guide was friendly. My only complaint is that every thing he said he then translated it into Spanish and Dutch. Therefore, the talking part could have been less and there could have been more time to tour. I suggest maybe Englih only tours or pre-recording the talking points so everyone doesn't have to listen to 3 different languages being spoken.

Nice to see Zaanse Schans
ALI_J
, Nov 2019
It was nice to see the town of Zaanse Schans and ofcourse the Cheese Farm, Clog Museum, and the many other vendors, stalls, and Windmills. Value for money it was quite reasonable and the tour started and ended as described. The only issue was that the actual guide managing the tour essentially vanished after the Clog Museum demonstration had completed! We couldn't find her - or members of our tour group, we were not given any maps or places to meet, after some level of frustration and disappointment we ended up moving around at our own pace on within the area but were always making sure our tour bus and driver wouldn't leave us stranded. The Tour Guide needs to look out for her paying guests to ensure they are not abandoned during tour or at the very least can contact her should there be a split.

Holland trip
Kevin D
, Oct 2019
Thoroughly enjoyed the visit but found the cost of entering the windmills whcih for us would have been 20 euros each windmill adding in total to 80 euros is the only reason we have not gifven a top rating for the visit.
