Great choice!

5.00They took us to two quaint villages, one was on the water. Both were beautiful!!! So glad I got out of the city, saw the villages and learned about traditions, and saw how things were made. I wish we had more time everywhere because we didn’t want to leave. Great choice for a few hours if you are in Amsterdam.
Netherlands.

3.00The tour was wonderful...the tour guide was NOT! She was rude, sarcastic and made comments about some of the tourists.
Great tour!!

5.00Really good day out away from the city. Good balance of guided times (clog making & cheese making) and free time to relax and have coffee or spend time in the traditional village shops.
Great locations, poor guidance

3.00The places we visited were wonderful and it gave us a chance to see the area well. The add-on portion of the Canal tour was very poor, however. The mic system did not seem to work and there was very little narration about what we were passing or where we were going. It seems like we sat in a hot vehicle And rode around in circles. Very disappointing.
