The renowned Dutch windmills of Zaanse Schans paired with the delightful village of Giethoorn, provide the ideal components for a day trip to remember.
Serving not just as a symbol of Dutch cultural heritage, the windmills have a significant role in the nation’s past. They were employed not merely for converting wheat to flour, but also for draining water from the marshlands encased within dikes, thereby forming a third of today’s national land, which would have otherwise been submerged. Not only will you get to wander amidst these architectural marvels, we’ll also transport you to the village of Giethoorn, one of the nation’s must-visit scenic locales.
Embark on this adventure with us and savour the stunning sights of both these locations, OuYi Travel style. Enjoy a comfortable journey in our 9-seater Mercedes Van, guided by our expert tour guide, and the coziness, adaptability and joy brought by our small tour groups.
