What To Expect
Giethoorn
After pick up, we will drive to Giethoorn, which is a 1.5 hour drive. During the drive, I will take you through some beautiful Dutch villages and countryside, which are untouched by tourists. Once we reach Giethoorn, we will spend 2.5 hours there, where you can take a scenic boat ride through the canals of Giethoorn. The boat ride is a fun way to look around Giethoorn. 1 hour canal cruise ride is included as part of the ticket. After the boat ride, we can walk through the beautiful streets of Giethoorn. Then you can enjoy a good lunch at any restaurant of your like. I can drive you to any restaurant that you might like.
Zaanse Schans
From Giethoorn, we will drive (for 1.5 hours) to a famous village of Windmills (Zaanse Schans), where we will spend 1.5 hours. During this time, you can see the cheese factory, Wooden shoe factory and the interior of the ancient windmills. After visiting Zaanse Schans, we will drive back to your drop off point, which would take 45 minutes - 1 hour.

A great tour guide

5.00This was our second trip to Amsterdam. We met Allen the morning of our tour and as we lai out the plan for the day we realized that we had seen half of the tour during our prior trip. Allen said he would come up with some other options while we were on the boat ride at Giethoorn. Allen found three options and we selected Amersfoort as our new destination. The old city was filled with wonderful restaurant options and a number of quaint shops for us to explore. It was a great day!
Excellent guide and stunning sights

5.00Alan was a fantastic guide- extremely knowledgeable. He went above and beyond while showing us around the beautiful Giethoorn and Zaanse Schans. We couldn't have asked for a better guide for our tour.
