Kinderdijk - Honestly, the weather, after several days of rain and clouds, but we had an excellent guide who knew how to avoid the crowds of the nearby riverboat excursions, so there was no waiting in line! Also, after leaving Kinderdijk, we were given a choice of an excursion to Delft, the Hague, or Vurgt, which was most unexpected, but truly made ours a memorable day!

Delft pottery and Kinderdijk small group tour - The tour guide was amazing. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a lot fun and we learnt about Dutch culture as well as the history of buildings in Delft and the windmills at Kinderdijk. The Delft factory was amazing. I would thoroughly recommend this company for small group tours. It is much better than large group tours that try to cover too much in one day. This tour gave you more time at the places we visited. I had a great time.

Convenient and informative - Had a great day trip with Sarah in a very small group of four. She was an excellent guide, very personable, informative, and well-traveled. At the end of the day she was even able to drop us off near our hotels instead of the meet-up point. Not sure if that is a regular thing but I very much appreciated it! The windmills were beautiful and fascinating, very educational and bucolic experience. I enjoyed seeing the smaller town of Delft after being in Amsterdam. We had time to explore the market, climb the New Church tower, and tour the Delft Blue museum/factory. All in all a great choice!

Great tour, bad traffic - This was an excellent small group tour. We were fortunate to have good weather, so got to enjoy a boat ride up and down the canal in beautiful sunshine. It was great to see multiple windmills working, see the inside of a windmill, and see the canal system in action, raising water between progressive ditches. Delft was a lovely second location, and it was great seeing the pottery factory in action. The downside was traffic. Our guide was late arriving due to traffic, and also took an extra 45 minutes at the end of the day to drop us off due to traffic. (By contrast, our taxi drivers to and from had no trouble avoiding traffic and zipping us to/from our hotel. We went to Amsterdam Centraal multiple times during our stay and our taxis never took the same route twice. I'm not sure why this tour got stuck on this one road as if it were the only way to approach the drop-off point.)

The best part of our glorious trip to Amsterdam - This small group tour to the Kinderdijk windmills and Delft from Amsterdam by Dutch Tours was the highlight of a vacation where we saw many wonderful things. Our tour guide, Eva, was well prepared and made sure to point out those things we were most interested in. The conversation we had on our trip to Kinderdijk and Delft was delightful. Eva picked up on our interests and used that knowledge to guide our tour. A small group tour is the way to go. I saw many other large tour groups with the leader trying to keep the group together, and it made me appreciate our small group. A great tour that I can’t recommend highly enough!

Such a Great Tour! - Had the most wonderful day trip to experience windmills in a striking setting, stroll through lovely Delft city, and tour the Royal Delft Factory where we learned about the history and production of this fine pottery. Eva was the best kind of guide… knowledgeable, great storyteller, and a good sense of humor, and she was willing to adapt plans according to the group’s interests. She even arranged a bonus drive through the tulip fields on our return to Amsterdam! Would definitely use this tour group again!
