Best experience! - We absolutely loved our day tour with K7 travel! Our tour guide was Simon, who had so much knowledge about the areas we were visiting and about the Netherlands in general. We got picked up right at our hotel and the day was perfectly organized. 10/10 experience and we would definitely do it again. If you can get a tour with Simon, you’ve hit the jackpot.

Great way to experience some highlights of The Netherlands - On this trip you get to see the windmill town of Zaanse Schans which has a number of interesting attractions. Firstly looking at the windmills from a distance, then into the village itself where there is a cheese shop & demonstration, a clog making demonstration and a diamond show & tell. Of course there are opportunities to purchase if you wish. After these you can walk around the windmills and tour inside at an extra cost. We chose the sawmill which was absolutely fascinating. But there is a chalk mill and several others. After this we were driven to Giethorn and had a boat trip among the canals and on the lake and then time for lunch and to explore the town. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. We were very well looked after by Leidse who was generous with his knowledge and advice. He’s very passionate and enthusiastic about his country and looks after guests very well. The communication about pick up was excellent. A highly recommended tour

Leidse is an incredibly energetic, accommodating guide. He's extremely knowledgeable and will.make if worth your money! His passion for sharing information about the Netherlands really is something that cannot be found on any other tours. It was an honour getting to learn more about the country from him.... And he takes great photos! Thank you again Leidse for being a fantastic guide

Highly recommend this tour to everyone! - 1. The car was clean and comfortable, with no odors, and even had bottled water available. 2. Our guide, Leidse, was very knowledgeable about the Netherlands, so I learned a lot about the local culture. 3. Leidse was very attentive—he helped carry items to the car when members bought something. Since I joined alone, he kindly took photos for me. As a non-native English speaker, he made sure I understood everything. 4. The itinerary was well-planned: we visited Zaanse Schans in the morning when it was less crowded, making for a relaxed experience. In the afternoon, we went to Giethoorn, had lunch, and then took a boat tour. 5. I’m very happy to have joined today’s tour, and I would definitely sign up again next time I visit the Netherlands!

Beautiful village and windmills. - Leidse is good and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about Dutch culture and had an amazing time. The only problem is we are seated next to driver which is not comfortable.
