Memorable trip to beautiful, picturesque villages in the country side…Expect touristy but still pleasant experiences. - Beautiful places at a comfortable pace. Kai was very helpful, informative and witty. Overall an enjoyable and memorable tour to the outside of Amsterdam city centre, a journey we are so glad to have taken before the end of our vacation. Had a bit of worries earlier the day before, trying to get in touch through their main number to confirm pick up details. They weren’t responsive the whole time. But all was good, they got in touch by 7:30pm and all was easy.

Great experience - Such a beautiful peaceful village, even though there were many many people and many many boats. Eric was a great host and guide. The windmills and area were just beautiful. I would highly recommend this day trip.

Great experience - Amazing villages to walk around and get demonstrations included for cheese and Clogs. Liked all the little shops and paths in Zaanse Schans and we went into a Windmill with great views (extra cost). Geithroon was also wonderful with a scenic boat ride included.

Excellent tour and very professionally done. - Boat ride and conversations in bus led by Reiner, a superior guide. I have said enough. It is ridiculous that you are requesting more characters. Are you giving me home work?

Great enjoyable tour - It was a great tour. We enjoyed the whole trip and the tour. Zane’s Scchans offered some unique experiences for us as tourists. It was good to see how they have set it up as a a spot for tourists to enjoy. Great cheese tasting and many choices to purchase. Giethoorn is also a unique and a very beautiful place. Also a relaxing yet very enjoyable place. Kai is an excellent tour guide. He made the tour more enjoyable. Excellent interaction and communications. Thank you Kai
