Amazing Tour of Dutch Countryside
LeftHandCabbage,Jun 19, 2023
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We booked this as an opportunity to get out of the city and explore more of the Dutch countryside. This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Our driver / guide, Robin (pardon if I have misspelled) was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about all the areas we visited. We had a great time getting to know more of the history and culture. He arrived on time, drove very safely the entire time, kept us on a comfortable schedule all day, and gave us an excellent experience. It does take the full 6 hours but, if you have the time during your visit, would highly recommend this.
