This full-day bus trip begins with a drive of about three hours from Brussels through the Dutch countryside, where travelers will see traditional windmills. The first stop is Rembrandthoeve, a cheese and wooden clog farm located along the Amstel River. Visitors spend around 45 minutes here learning about Dutch cheese and clog production. After the farm visit, the tour continues to Amsterdam. Upon arrival, the guide points out landmarks such as the Netherlands’ National Bank, the Heineken Brewery, and The Painting Gallery, which features works by Dutch painters Rembrandt and Van Gogh. From Saint-Nicolas Church, guests take a 20-minute walk passing the neo-Gothic Central Station to reach Dam Square. At Dam Square, centered by the Royal Palace, travelers have free time to either take an optional 75-minute canal boat tour or explore the nearby coffee shops and the Red Light District. The return journey passes by Amsterdam’s houseboats and the replica ship of the East India Company. The route also includes views of the Jewish Museum and the Jewish Memorial, Artis Zoo, and Nemo Science Museum, designed by architect Renzo Piano. The entire trip lasts about 12 hours and includes a professional guide with bilingual commentary and air-conditioned transport. The boat tour, meals, gratuities, and hotel pickup or drop-off are not included.
