The tour was just amazing. Although it felt a little rushed, the activities are well planned for an introductory trip and well managed; deparating and ending on time. The guides were fabulous, providing clear and concise explanation and were friendly too.

Great tour guide Dima. Explained everything with knowledge and humor Enjoyed seeing the windmills in Zan Scaanse, the cheese making in Volendam and the boat ride and shoe demonstration in Market

Disappointed because there was no visit to Edam as mentioned in the brochure. The cheese-forming factory was actually a store, with a saleswoman "disguised" as a farmer who spent barely 10 minutes there. No real presentation of "how Edam is made". Too little time in the very pretty village of Marken, and too much in the previous village.
