A pleasant journey in Amsterdam - Really enjoying the cheese factory trip. We encountered the process of local cheese manufacturing in a pleasant atmosphere. Get a sight for the windmill and a free city walk.

Day to Amsterdam - Visiting the cheese and clogs factory. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and make the trip very interesting . Must have in consideration that not all people have WiFi in their phones (roaming cost a lot of money -AT&T) and after you are on your own instructions are given thru the phone

Disappointed... - A bit disappointing... This was not a guided tour, we were dropped off and given all of 3 hours to tour through the historic district of Amsterdam, with a map that was not overly helpful. The walk to where we were dropped off and picked back up was a 20 minute walk each way, so there went 40 minutes. We were encouraged to take the boat tour, took over an hour and while we did see lots of buildings and get some history, it was hard to take photos in the covered boat. We were promised windmills in the tour description, we saw one.... The cheese tasting, was a tour through a family owned farm, and while it was interesting, it was very staged.

Disappointing - This is an organized tour (it is certainly not a guided tour) that is in its simplest expression. The map given to us to visit Amsterdam is not really useful because it is too small and practically impossible to see the names of the streets. So in short very ordinary!

9 hours in a bus and a weird cheese stop, 2 hours actually experiencing Amstedam - Tour guide was knowledgeable but didn’t really say much you couldn’t derive from a 2 minute Wikipedia search. 9 hours in a bus and only 3 hours unguided in Amsterdam. We stopped at a cheese factory thing because the bus driver had to take a break even though we were less than 10 minutes from Amsterdam. The cheese tour was less than impressive, ran by a dude who seemed very weird who really wanted us to know he spoke Chinese. Dropped off on the outskirts of Amsterdam where you have to walk 30 minutes to reach the city center and 30 minutes back, really only leaving 2 hours to explore. When in Amsterdam the prices are absolutely ludicrous (14€ for 1 pint of beer) and cannot see much. Bus has no bathroom and no food allowed. Do yourself a favor and just get train tickets to save yourself 30+ euros, pretty underwhelming overall. Am I glad I did it, meh I guess. Would I do it again? Absolutely not.

Disappointed with the Tripadvisor tour guide - I was treated very unkindly and unprofessionally by the tour guide. Amsterdam is a beautiful city and my enjoyment was impacted negatively by the tour guide’s unprofessional behaviour towards Tripadvisor’s customers.
