Windmills, Cheese and Piers… Oh my! - Very good tour, we extended an hour. I probably would have looked inside all windmills if we had more time but got to see in one and also see how the shoes were made. We were happy to see the dairy farm and taste the cheese. The little city by the pier ‘Volendam’ was quaint and we enjoyed a lunch outside on such a beautiful day. Thanks for a wonderful day!!!

Great overall experience - Younes was a very friendly and conversational driver who was also knowledgeable about the places we toured. We were picked up from our hotel in a very nice, clean car and he was a very safe driver. He made sure to make the most efficient use of our time we had with him that day, and we were able to see and do a lot as he navigated the crowds very well for us. It was a very memorable part of our trip!

Beautiful day in the Netherlands countryside - What a beautiful day in the Netherlands countryside with Younes! This was more than just having a driver to take us to different locations; he shared history & made sure we also got demonstrations (for clog making & cheese making) & gave recommendations for different foods & places to try. If we ever come back to the Netherlands or have friends & family come here, we will absolutely recommend this tour & company in general. Thank you, Younes!!

Wonderful - We spent a perfect amount of time in the Belgium countryside. The cheese was excellent and the story about and watching the wooden shoe being made was wonderful. Of course, seeing the windmills was nice also. Our tour guide gave us good information as well as let us have some time on our own.

not a tour - just a driver. - Though the driver was punctual and the car was quite nice, the title is misleading. We never got a tour. We got a chauffeur, who barely spoke any English (though it was dubbed as an English tour). He merely drove us from place to place and then had us walk around on our own and check out the sites. There was zero communication or description or discussion of any sort about any of the places that we went, though they were all beautiful.
