TERRIBLE! Me and my wife were the only ones! So we thought that was a plus but not! Ana was not bad but not great. We didn’t have access to anything. We had to pay our tickets. We wasn’t guided to the point we took off, she left us a few stations before and we had to figure out how to get back. There want any tasting of nothing. We didn’t see no windmills. Terrible for the price! There was groups near us that payed less than half and had way more. Worst money invested. Don’t even waste your money here. Look for the other cheaper tours.

Had a magical day exploring the windmills, seeing demonstrations of clog making and plenty of cheese sampling. Gillio was very polite and professional and even gave us all a small gift to take home :) highly recommend him!

I can not say enough good about Claudio! From the very beginning of our reservation he was very helpful, replying to messages immediately and helping us feel at ease in the meeting spot/time since we were on a tight schedule. Then our flights were changed and we had to move dates, he was not obligated to accommodate but had the new date available, so we were all set. But Delta made our time in Amsterdam go from 9 hours to one hour so our tour was off. Through the entire process he was great, and we plan on a longer trip to Amsterdam in the future and hope he will be available! Thank you, I can not be happier with the service, just wish we had the experience!

An enjoyable afternoon spent on the coast visiting Volendam and Marken. Within easy reach of Amsterdam, even the bus ride from central station was interesting. Our guide was intelligent and thoughtful and pointed out many things we would have missed. The towns themselves are charming even though rather fill of tourist tat, and with a guide to show us around, we saw the hidden quieter parts.
