Overview

This private day trip from Amsterdam lasts about seven hours and covers several notable locations in the Dutch countryside. The tour begins at Zaanse Schans, where you spend about an hour and a half exploring a well-preserved area known for its collection of windmills and a demonstration of traditional wooden shoe making. Next, the tour moves on to Edam, a small town where you have nearly an hour to walk around and experience the slower pace of life. Following Edam, the group visits Jacobs Hoeve Cheese Farm by Henri Willig for half an hour. Here you see how Edam and Gouda cheeses are produced and have a chance to taste them. After the cheese farm, the tour continues to Volendam for another hour and a half. In Volendam, you can explore the harbor area, wander through the town’s maze of streets, and enjoy views of the Ijsselmeer. The final stop is Marken, a former island visited for 45 minutes. Marken is noted for its distinct character and landscapes. The tour includes a professional guide and driver, along with hotel pickup and drop-off. Food and drinks are not included. This excursion operates regardless of weather, so appropriate clothing is advised.
