interesting and short. It is worth it; the guide is very good. I recommend stopping in Zaandam first, as you can see the village in half an hour.
Great fun so close to Amsterdam!

We loved this tour! The whole team from our wonderful guides to the bus driver were very friendly, welcoming and organised. Being able to see and experience this unique part of the Netherlands in a compact tour time around 3 hours, was worth every $ and we would recommend to all.
Great!

The coordination for the pick up was a disaster. They pick us up late and because we call them. The driver has the wrong information about the pick up time and the pick up place. But Bianka ( the tourist guide in zaanse schan) was amazing and the place is beautiful

The tour itself with Kenny was very good, however be careful regarding your tickets as ours was arranged with a Hotel pick up and confirmed with this stated on the tickets, but this did not happen.
A Great experience

Very enjoyable half day tour with Ray. Friendly, knowledgeable local guide. Booking and pick up was easy, Zaans is worth a visit in a small group with more of a personal approach. There is enough time to explore and experience a little of the beautiful countryside/culture before returning to Amsterdam. Worthwhile and good value.
Good trip to Zaanse Schans

Great experience and a great tour. Our guide was local and she gave some great insights into the area. We were picked up at our hotel and offered a ride to Amsterdam after the tour, if we wished. Highly recommend the tour.
