5.00Me and my friends had an excellent time with our tour guide Diana! It was really easy to meet her at the meeting point as her communication was very clear and timely. We enjoyed an incredible day and Diana was filled with incredible facts, especially since she grew up in the area and was able to share some of her experience growing up here as well. I highly recommend this your and ask for Diana as your guide!

Windmill village Zaanse Schans from Amsterdam Central Station

5.00We had one of the best tours with Diana for a visit to Zaanse Schans. Diana met us at Amsterdam Central station and had our train tickets. We travelled to Zaanse and she pointed out a few places during the train ride. Once we arrived, she navigated our way to the cheese shop, clog store and the windmill. It was a busy day but she really knew her stuff. Lots of historical information that we loved learning about. This was a small group tour so max like 12-15 but it was just 4 of us so it became a private tour. I really liked that she didn’t cancel the tour because it wasn’t a full group. Also, Diana kept in touch with messages right up until the day of the tour. . After the tour finished, which was about 2 hrs, Diana left us so we were free to wander around on our own. Diana had our return tickets for us. Highly recommend Diana for this tour
Awesome!!!
