The tour was very good and informative. Description should advise that visiting inside the windmills is extra 5€ Per person. Otherwise very picturesque.

All these buildings were brought here from 1961 on, bringing back to life this most prosperous period of the Zaan region.

If you are in Amsterdam for more than one day this should be day two. A beautiful tour with top notch customer oriented professional staff in every spot. Going to see this little village outside of Amsterdam was one of the highlights of our entire trip.
Nice experience
