Day Trips from Amsterdam

By far this was the best tour I have taken in The Netherlands so far. While the other tours were great, this one was special. It was special because the tour became a private tour for me and a friend because other people canceled last minute. Adrian was a great tour guide; knowledgeable, understandable in English, a good driver, and a gentleman. He is taller than my friend and I with a longer stride. He was always in front of us and had to wait for us to catch up. No biggie, though. The first stop was a beautiful, old town (1600's). Quiet and quaint. We drove and walked on a dyke, saw county side, and three more special places that I am not going to mention so they do not get populated with tourists! This was a great tour! There was even a bag of nice snacks and a water provided. The car was clean and a lot of good conversation was had. We were able to use the bathroom at the places we visited too, without having to pay. That is a good thing because there is a lot of time traveling in the van. Thank you, Adrian!

Relaxing and informative tour to see a unique part of the Netherlands. Well organised, with good communication and a small group.

This was an excellent trip, the tour guide was extremely polite and knowledgable and told us all about the culture and history of the area. When we arrived we took a long boat ride through the village which is only accessible via boat. Lots of bridges, beautiful homes and luxurious landscaping. There were several options for us to get some lunch and free time to walk around and explore before going back to the city.

"Eric was a skilled, knowledgeable tour guide who was patient, informative, and made all aspects of our tour wonderful. We toured three cities and he made certain that we we learned much about each hub. We toured Rotterdam, Delft and The Hague and we now retain the essence politically, geographically and socially about each city. The driving was efficient and smooth and the knowledge of our driver made the trip exceptionally good. I let Eric know he should consider becoming a college professor with his level of experience. We give him ten stars!!"

Excellent guides...5* each! Great town with lots to do and see. Would like to go back for an extended visit.

We had a great day with Erik! Loved each of our stops! Erik was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend the day with!

Fantastic tour. My wife and I really enjoyed it. It was a great opportunity to see historic windmills without having to go too far from Amsterdam. Wandering along the canals in Giethoorn was a highlight of our trip.

The tulips were absolutely incredible! We enjoyed the farm and Keukenhauf Gardens. Staff was friendly and informative. It was all beautiful! I highly recommend.

The trip was punctual, well organized, fact filled and thoroughly enjoyable. Plenty of free time to explore on your own. Ian is a talented guide who is passionate about his work. Pete, our driver, kept us safe and on time. Long ride but worth it. Bring snacks and drinks for the ride.

Great information on the tour, long day but worth it. Went as a solo traveller and met some wonderful people

Giethoorn was on our bucket list of places to visit, and it totally lived up to the hype. Our guide Anzi made everything so much more special. He knew the inside tricks to avoid the crowds, and even during the high tourist season in August, we almost had Giethoorn to ourselves with very few tourists. We cannot recommend this activity and Anzi highly enough.

We did a day tour with driver/guide Mr. Reinier, and it was an excellent experience. He is a very kind, friendly, and knowledgeable person who explained all the locations clearly and patiently. Throughout the tour, he personally took care of all our needs and made sure we were comfortable at every stop. His professionalism and warm attitude truly made the trip memorable. Highly recommended!

Guide was enthusiastic about Koln cathedral. He patiently answered questions. It was a long trip but I think it was worth it

Santiago was a great tour guide! Very informative, I learned a lot about the history of Brussels and Bruges. Highly recommend!

Fun day trip with Pedro and Mo Ferrari! I enjoyed it being a small group tour. Ride was fast and comfortable. We were a mixed group but Pedro effortlessly explained information in English and Spanish! We also got ample free time to explore the areas. Book this tour!!

I can't believe we managed to see both Antwerp and Cologne in just one day! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing stories and facts that brought each location to life. The transportation was comfortable, and the small group size made the experience feel personal. While it's a long day, the itinerary is well-paced, allowing ample time to appreciate both cities. This tour is perfect for those wanting to maximize their time in Europe.

Excellent day trip. Ian gave wonderful information about the Netherlands, Belgium, Bruge, and many other things with humor and intelligence in two languages. His restaurant and chocolatier recommendations were helpful. The introductory walking tour was informative and well-paced. If you don’t have some sights planned on your own you might feel like the free time is too much. Do some research. Have a plan.

Such a fun day with Pedro and Mo-both very knowledgeable about the area. Their recommendations helped make our day in Belgium very memorable!

Mike was our tour guide in Bruges and we throughly enjoyed our tour. He was very knowledgeable and you can tell he loves his job. He guided us to the best chocolate shops. ❤️

The first independent tulip farm was the best the windmill cruise was SO BORING and the commentary was non existent and when they did speak it lacked lustre, it’s just a way to sell tea, coffee and Dutch apple cake. The main event tulip displays was over crowded and like a Disneyland of tulips Overall just go to the 1st one independently google tulip farmers and the one that has a cafe. Over priced trip.

Our guide got us ahead of the big bus tours making for a lovely experience. Great information provided in a wonderful atmosphere.

It was an excellent trip, with a very kind guide, I completely recommend it. Perfect choice for a family trip!

This tour was great! Abrahim was the best guide I’ve ever had on any tour! He is knowledgeable and takes care of small details like taking your packages to the bus, giving recommendations for restaurants and activities, and making sure there is access to toilets when needed. Our bus driver (can’t remember his name) was great as well. The villages are beautiful and the tour is well planned. Highly recommended this tour!
