What To Expect
Amsterdam Centraal
A Monument of Amsterdam’s Past Opened in 1889, Amsterdam’s Central Station was designed by famed architect Pierre Cuypers, who also created the Rijksmuseum. Built on thousands of wooden pilings driven into marshy ground, this grand station became the city’s primary gateway. Today, it stands as a blend of history and innovation, linking Amsterdam’s storied past with its vibrant present.

5.00Very nice different activity for Amsterdam. Gets you away from the hustle and stereo typical tourist spots. There is only one windmill to see on the outskirts of the city and it’s only viewed from the road. Alll in all a good fun day.

Windmill and countryside tour

5.00It was a very pleasant bike ride through the city and into the countryside for the windmill tour. The only downside is that there’s only one windmill on the tour, but that doesn’t take away from the amazing views elsewhere. The route takes you past the windmill, over two bridges, and into a seaside village. After passing that, you enter farm country (be prepared for the smell because it’ll hit you). The cheese at the farm was delicious! And you’ll get to ride a bike ferry coming back into the city. Overall a great experience if you’re looking for a breath of fresh air and an escape from the city. Skip was an excellent guide and made sure everyone was together before starting the next leg of the tour!
Fun bike tour into countryside!

5.0014 mile bike ride from city to countryside and back on short ferry ride. Norberto was a great guide and was very knowledgeable. It was only my wife and I on a cloudy/rainy day and he let us stop for pictures whenever we asked. Visit to farm was a good break - saw cows and newborn sheep and tasted local cheeses.
