Amsterdam, be careful! - We are not very happy with Amsterdam. Very good for transport, hotels, services and entertainment. We found the center with a lot of dirt and neglect even in the street furniture and gardens, it's a shame because it would be such a beautiful city.

Recommended trip, especially in summer. - A trip near Amsterdam definitely worth doing. The history of this area and of the village visited is very interesting. Our guide Emanuele was knowledgeable and kind. It's a shame that only one mill can be visited and paid for.
