5.00Our host Scott was outstandingly great. Scott was very accommodating to our group of 7. Scott provided an informative history of Holland and the surrounding areas, its beer industry development and evolution and an in depth understanding of current pub operations and opportunities. We highly recommend touring with Scott…we really our enjoyed our three hours with Scott and the fun stops he includes along the path.
Great experience! Scott will impress!

5.00Scott was easily recognized at our rendez-vous point by the top hat he was sporting. He was interesting and interested right from the start. Tales of growing up in Holland with a half Dutch family were cultural glimpses. It was a good walking tour visiting 3 pubs with a snack provi#ed. We'll worth your time and$. Congrats on one year, Scott! All the best to you and your family.
Fun, informative tour with great beer

5.00I had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Holland Brew Pub Tour! The combination of learning about Holland’s history and exploring its breweries was both educational and fun. The guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the whole tour feel very personal. I loved walking through the heated streets, admiring the artwork along the way, and of course, tasting some incredible local beers. The atmosphere was friendly and relaxed, and it was a perfect way to meet other people who share the same love for craft beer. Rain or shine, this tour is definitely worth it — it was truly the highlight of my visit to West Michigan. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Holland! Це була абсолютно чудова подорож під час туру Holland Brew Pub Tour! Поєднання розповідей про історію Голланду та знайомства з місцевими броварнями виявилося і пізнавальним, і дуже веселим. Гід був надзвичайно обізнаний, щирий і зробив тур по-справжньому особистим та захопливим. Мені сподобалося прогулюватися теплими вулицями, милуватися мистецькими роботами дорогою і, звісно, куштувати неймовірне місцеве пиво. Атмосфера була дружньою і невимушеною, це був ідеальний спосіб познайомитися з іншими любителями крафтового пива. Незалежно від погоди, цей тур обов’язково варто відвідати — це справжня родзинка мандрівки у Західному Мічигані. Щиро рекомендую всім, хто планує відвідати Голланд!
Great tour.
