Great tour

This tour was very interesting. The area is of Zaandam is just beautiful and everything you expect. Just a couple of points to note. You are picked up from your hotel by a driver in a van who is not your tour guide. The driver takes you to a meeting place where you meet up with the guide. This was a little off putting when you didnt know about it. Secondly its a very busy area for tourists. The clog making factory was packed even though we went early. So be aware its a very busy area. The guide we had was a young lady (whose name i cant remember) who was very knowledgeable and informative. Its mainly a walking tour around Zaandam and the windmills. Then you catch a small boat to your lunch desitnation. Have lunch and then the boat takes you to another part of Zaandam where you walk around some more and then meet up with the van driver who takes you back to you hotel. Really do recommend this tour if you want to see classic Amsterdam and some windmills.

private tour - Zaanse Schans and Zaandam

4 of us who took this private tour could not have been more pleased. Six-seven hour private tour with automobile pick-up and drop-off at our Amsterdam hotel. We first had a great walking tour of the Zaanse Schans Dutch historic area; while it was filled with tourists (late August), it was enjoyable nonetheless. Then we had a private and interesting boat tour (about 30 minutes)j; very lovely sights. Stopped in Zaandam - interesting city. Saw a museum which had Monet reproductions of the many paintings he made of the area, a tour of the Peter the Great home, and then a lovely lunch (included in price) in Zaandam. Price very reasonable. Knowledgeable and friendly English-fluent guides. Strongly recommend.
