Countryside and windmills tour from Amsterdam

We had a lovely time on this excursion. Our tour guide Astrid, driver Frankie and their coworker Laura made the experience fun and informative. Especially liked Astrid's commentary as we made our way through the countryside. We also found some unique souvenirs to bring back with us.

Very entertaining and informative experience.

It was one of the best day trips I have ever taken. The bus driver, Stefan and guide, Tony were knowledgable and entertaining - plenty of life music on this bus. It was a full day and they accommodated me when I couldn’t go into one windmill due to an allergy. Cannot recommend them high enough. We came back and booked another trip with this company straight away.

Relaxing and fun

Was a good day out and enjoyed it. Were not at the one place for too long either which is good because some other tours leave you at the one spot for too long and you end up waiting around.

Wonderful Experience

Great experience and very helpful guide by Pia, Mercedez and Stef the bus driver (comedian). We took the 4dec23 morning trip

Great tour

Great tour, we loved it. Saw heaps of stuff but didn't feel rushed. Great afternoon our of the city which was also bice, the countryside is beautiful.

Fascinating Tour

Our team Vladimir (the driver) and Carolina and Charley were amazing. Friendly, funny and informative. I learnt a lot on this trip !! The planned visits and demonstrations from the windmill, cheese factory, waffle making and clog making were all well presented and fascinating. The whole trip was relaxed and unlike tours i have been on in different countries, we had plenty of time at each stop to eat, drink, browse and take the sights in. I would 100% definitely recommend and use again.

Fun day in windmill country

Great tour, made even more enjoyable by the bus driver Steve who entertained us throughout the day. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended.

Very good trip. Did what it said it would do. Comfy coach, lovely guides, interesting places to visit. It was cold and blustery but that didn't dampen our spirits. Loved the boat trip. The windmill was amazing. We enjoyed the cheese tasting and the demonstration. The clog factory was good as was the demonstration. The only negative was the waiting around for half an hour before we set off. Didn't understand why that was necessary especially as there was not where to sit out of the cold wind.

The outskirts of amsterdam guided tour

Cheese demonstration, Clog making with steam engine, and Peanut/Paint oil and chalk making windmill village was very educational and delightful. I'd like to say the windmill village was beautiful and the food recommended by our tour guide (Ian, I believe) at volendam was fantastic. The boat ride over to marked was amazing as well. 10 out of 10!

Slow Down

The tour and the places we went were great, I loved Volendam and Marken the most. The tour guide however was very strict about time and the tour itself was rushed. The guide walked off leaving the rest of the group in the dust even though people told her she was walking too fast and they couldn't keep up. She was constantly so far ahead of the group that people were asking where did she go. I'm not sure if the audio on the bus was having issues or not but it seemed to randomly cut out. If you take the 245 tour and chose the all inclusive option for the boat ride make sure to bring a hat, jacket, and gloves as it gets very windy and cold on the outer decks.

Fast paced tour

This day trip offered a lot. It was packed so full with attractions that the time allotted for each stop did not provide enough time to do much tourist exploration in the little shops. I gave it 4 stars only because I wish I had time to go in and out of the many shops at both stops. This was not possible. The windmills, clog making, and cheese factory were very interesting. The guides, Adrianna, Frankie and particularly Xiaoli were friendly, helpful, humorous and made the time spent together enjoyable. I could have spent 2hrs on the island of Volendam but only had time for a quick lunch and very brief visit to a shop next to the restaurant before having to leave. It felt very rushed. Time to eat and then explore the many shops in Volendam would have been perfect.

Windmills

We booked to see the windmills etc, what a great afternoon we had! With Steff and Astrid we had a fab time. We would definitely recommend

ESENCIA DE HOLANDA

Nos ha encantado y sobre todo millones de gracias a Carolina, Mercedes y Germán, sin ellos no hubiera sido la gran experiencia que ha sido.

Gran tour, el mejor staff

Hemos tomado diferentes tour en viaje por Europa pero debemos decir que es uno de los mejores que hemos tenido. Nuestros guías Diana, Erick y el conductor Haans fueron más que fabulosos. Hicieron que todo el tour fuera entretenido, lleno de información y sobre todo amables. En cada momento se notaba una sonrisa y siempre ayudaron a todos, incluyendo a una señora que venia en silla de ruedas, Haans estuvo siempre apoyándola. Gran equipo y seres humanos, divertidos y amables. Así mismo el tour es fabuloso, tiempo exacto para comocer las ciudades, se disfrutan enormemente y muy bien explicadas. Con pruebas de degudtacion en cada actividad. Si están en Ámsterdam no duden en contratar y busquen a este gran staff! Gracias y como dicen ustedes, Dag Dag 😁

Pinceladas cultura campestre

Un buen modo de conocer la cultura rural del país. Un aserradero de madera en un Molino, fabrica de zuecos, de quesos y dulces típicos Pia,, una maravillosa guía que nos que nos dio gran parte de las visitas en español. Si no hubiera sido por ella no nos habríamos enterado de las visitas, que eran en inglés La acompañaba Susana como huía de apoyo. Recomendable

Buena eleccion

Muy buena atencion de la empresa Tickets y Tours. Los guias Nico y Romi muy amables y correctos. Los lugares visitados bien tradicionales y muy bonitos. El chofer excelente. Me gusto mucho, feliz de realizarla. En la demostracion de la fabricacion de zuecos eramos muchos, todos apilados y no alcance a ver mucho.

MUY RECOMENDABLE

Una excursión PERFECTA! nuestra guía, Xiaoli ESPECTACULAR, una suerte que nos tocara ella 😀 y Josy muuuuy atenta y amable con todos también! En una ratito vimos un montón de cosas, mi familia y yo os recomendaremos, sin duda! Mil gracias!

Best day to spend und Amsterdam

- Vor allem waren die Guids sehr nett, freundlich und wussten vieles. Sylvia war die Chef von der Tour. Es lohnt sich. Wir konnten in einer Windmühle rein, Käse probieren usw… Mehr sag ich nicht aber es lohnt sich

Gita nelle campagne olandesi

Bella gita consigliata per chi vuole visitare posti unici. La guida molto gentile e disponibile, l’unica pecca è che in poche ore hanno concentrato un sacco di cose ma sicuramente ne vale la pena

Pomeriggio piacevole

Siamo andati con Tours &ticket , sono molto puntuali e la giornata era molto bella . Il pullman era pieno ma sono comunque riuscite a farci vedere tutto e in modo molto piacevole , forse ci voleva un po’ più di tempo nella zona dei mulini per girare con più calma . Le ragazze Silvia e Andrea sono state brave e simpatiche e ci hanno portato a visitare l’interno di un mulino segheria, sia alla fabbrica di formaggi e poi abbiamo avuto anche del tempo libero a Volendam paesino molto grazioso sul lago dolce artificiale. L’autista forse di nome Carl ha guidato bene e in tranquillità. Lo rifarei volentieri

Belle journée

Très bien une belle journée avec une équipe fantastiques Très bien organisé Ils sont très très très agréable merci a tout le équipe tour ticket Merci a bientôt

La guida era un ragazzo molto carino e gentile.La sua spiegazione era precisa .E stata una bellissima esperienza la raccomando fortemente

Très chouette visite

Tres chouette visite je recommande ces 3 villes moulins musées bateau visite à pieds un peu touristique mais c'est 1 pru partout pareil Ces 3 petites villes sont tres jolies

Villaggio di pescatori

Piccolo villaggio molto ordinato. Visitato in un giorno grigio e piovoso che rendeva molto l'atmosfera del mare del Nord. Tanti negozietti e ristoranti. Mangiato un ottimo fish and Chips. Ottimo per mezza giornata fuori porta

Super tour e super guida

Super Super tour. Straconsigliato. Solo il tempo ha rovinato un po le cose, ma la guida Silvy,Ian e anche bus-driver erano super friendly. i villaggi che andate a visitare eranno davvero unici,per non parlare del formaggio che abbiamo comprato. Suggerisco di comprare il formaggio con coconut,era davero speciale. Questo tour e un must.

Schönes Städtchen mit historischen Flair

Sind durch eine Busreise hierhergekommen. Geburtsort des Sängers Jan Smit (Klubbb3). Romantische Promenade. Häuser von anno dazumal. War vorher ein Fischerdorf. Heute klar mehr Touristik. Klare Empfehlung für den der sich für die Niederlande interessiert. Auf alle Fälle ein Besuch wert. Einkehr ist in den vielen kleinen Bistros und Cafés möglich.

Super Tagesausflug mit tollem Tourguide

Toller Tag ! Gestartet mit dem Bus ab Centraal Station, mit dem super netten Fahrer FrAnk und dem Tourguide Steff. Dieser spielte zum Anfang erst einmal Piano (!) im Bus. Insgesamt alles super organisiert, 6 Stunden gingen schnell vorbei. Windmühlen, Holzschuh Fabrik, Käse verkosten und Stropwaffels genascht. Dazu 30 Minuten mit der Fähre übers Isselmeer nach Volemdamm. 45,00€ alles inkl. Man kann auch weniger zahlen, und entscheidet vor , ob man jeweils für ca. 5.00€ eine Attraktion hinzubucht. Kein Zwang! Steff ist als Tourguide sehr zu empfehlen, sehr lustiger Typ, der die Ruhe weg hat.

Schöner Tagesausflug

Schöner Tagesausflug - Käserei Besuch - Bäckerei Besuch - Holzschuhmuseum - Promenade mit Mittagessen (Essen exklusive) - Windmühlen
