  We had such a great time on our private tour with Juan to Zaanse Schans, Edam, Volendam, and Marken. He was super friendly and really knowledgeable—he shared a lot of interesting info about each place without ever making it feel like a lecture. At Zaanse Schans, we loved checking out the clog-making demo and browsing the cute gift shop. Edam was such a charming little town—it felt so peaceful and picturesque, like something out of a storybook. Juan recommended a great spot for lunch in Volendam, which was one of the best meals we had. We also enjoyed learning about how the Dutch built and maintained their dykes—those illustrations were really cool. In Marken, Juan gave us a great explanation about the history of flooding in the Netherlands and how the country manages its water today. It gave us a whole new appreciation for how much thought and effort goes into keeping things running here. He spoke English really well and made sure to guide us along less crowded paths, which we really appreciated. Juan was also super patient and understanding with our group’s needs while keeping it well-paced. We’re really glad we had him as our guide—it made the day feel easy, informative, and fun. Highly recommend!

  We had an incredible tour of Zaanse Schans, Edam, Volendam, and Marken with our guide, Enrique. His knowledge of the region’s history—especially how the Dutch transformed wetlands into farmland—was absolutely fascinating. He brought to life the story of these charming towns with insights into their culture, heritage, and the impressive engineering that made them possible. The visit to the windmills at Zaanse Schans was a highlight, offering a vivid glimpse into traditional Dutch industry. In Edam and Volendam, we experienced the unique character of each town, from cheese markets to quaint fishing villages. Marken was equally charming, with its colorful houses and peaceful atmosphere. Enrique’s passion for Dutch history and his engaging storytelling made this tour both educational and thoroughly enjoyable. We left with a deep appreciation for the ingenuity, resilience, and culture of the Dutch people. Highly recommend!

  Enrique was fantastic. We had a wonderful day exploring towns outside of Amsterdam. Learned so many things we would have never known by just visiting ourselves. We enjoyed farms and sights and great spot for lunch! Highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed. Thank you for a fantastic day and experience Enrique!!

  Our driver was very flexible, friendly and helpful with suggestions. The small towns we visited near Zaanse Schans were fun and interesting. His contacts made it easy to get into places like a busy restaurant and cheese tasting.
