Rae(sp?) was a great driver. We started at Zanse Schaans and she gave a wonderful informative tour. We then started heading out to Keukenhof Gardens. Unfortunately we had two flat tires on a rather busy highway. She made arrangements to get us moved to a safer location and was continually in contact with people trying to get us new transportation. After we got on our way again she really wanted us to take advantage of the lunch included in our tour. However, we decided to go straight to the gardens. She was right there at pickup time and safely returned us to our hotel. She was really exhibited grace under pressure and went above and beyond to make sure we had nothing but a positive experience. We also met a lovely Dutch lady who was kind enough to invite us into her home to use her facilities.

The best part of this tour was our guide, Hans. He was knowledgeable, entertaining, accommodating and courteous. This wasn’t our first trip to these sites. We have been here before and knew what we wanted to see. The complication we had is that our ship stopped in IJmuiden but thus tour comprehended that complication and allowed us to get a lot of touring done in a short amount of time.

Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about most of the tour. Lots of good info on the windmills and community around them. We were a bit late in the season on the flowers and tulips and would have liked more guidance on navigating the park and experience.

Rayette was a great guide for our day of tulips and windmills! We did pick Easter Sunday to go, a very busy day, but she made it all smooth and easy for us. With great information at each place! Highly recommend! And the lunch spot was beautiful!

We couldn't have asked for a better tour . Hans and Ingrid were excellent guides . It was a perfect day - the tulips were peaking at Keukenhof and Hans let us walk the grounds as long as we liked. Then - lunch in a small town restaurant where we had a traditional Dutch lunch- Apple pancakes? Who would have thunk it. Then onto the windmills at Zaanse Schans. We visited a Wooden Shoe shop and a Cheese vendor- got to see the artisans at work. We visited the oldest windmill in the Netherlands and learned about their inter workings . Both of the guides were so friendly and I would recommend this tour to our friends and family!

This tour went beyond our expectations. Delivered everything as promised. Five star all the way. Our tour guide Bianca was delightful and informative. Itinerary was timed well to avoid crowds. The day flew by. Private is the way to go.

Zaan tours is highly recommended! Bart and Kenny did a great job accommodating our preferences while showing us Zaanse Shans and the Keukenhof tulips. We never felt rushed and still got everything done!
