5.00Well organized and very informative. Our guide, Ibrahim, was entertaining and knowledgeable about the countryside we drove through. We appreciated the detail and anecdotal stories. The stop at an organic farm market with fresh fruit and wares for sale, was a highlight. Even some gratis stroopwaffel treats were handed out on our way back to Amsterdam. I would highly recommend this trip.
