Perfect organization in addition to stupendous landscapes. Gianni was a high-level guide/escort
Very good, too bad about the group, very capable guide, but the group was too much. Large and consequently distant.
I absolutely recommend this experience. The entire staff was impeccable, the organization perfect. The guide was exemplary in their explanations from the beginning of the tour to the end. I would definitely do it again.
Excellent guide Gianni, very knowledgeable and kind. The tour was wonderful, I would recommend it.
Interesting trip to learn about Dutch history. Nice full immersion! You discover a piece of industrial and commercial history inside a charming village. With tastings of cheese and chocolate!
Excellent organization, the staff members were friendly and helpful. Simone is an excellent guide. I recommend it. We then extended the visit to the whole day
The guide I thought spoke more. The place no big deal. I had high expectations, if I went back I would do more by saving.
Availability found two days before the tour. Characteristic village with mills, clog factory and other typical workshops of ancient Holland. Very friendly qualified and professional staff. We opted for the 4-hour "short" tour due to time problems with the plane. But if you can arrange for the full tour with visits to other typical places. Usually recommended to complete the experience in and around amsterdam
Tour organized in detail, very competent and serious guides, attentive to all participants
We received little explanation. There were radio lines, which we - though - we didn't get it. We felt "left" to ourselves. I believe, however, that a tour is the only option to see windmills!
We were very lucky, the weather was gracious and the guide was able to involve us in a tour that took us back a bit to the world of fairy tales. The village is really nice and well worth a visit.
nice, nice experience to see the windmills, good guide Antony great guide who showed us well everything
Very positive experience Gentle but professional gudes. Beautiful fairytale place Very good cheeses
Entony was fantastic! . I must say exemplary! Thank you very much. You are super helpful throughout. See you soon:-)
Very professional and organized Precise nice clear movements and appointments for sure if I return to Amsterdam I will contact them for more experiences
Nice tour, you can taste the real Holland where it seems that time has stopped. You visit the mills and wonderful villages
Perfect organization from the transfer to the mills to the explanations in general all very kind and professional one of the first things to do just arrived in Amsterdam because they provided us with useful tips on how to move and what to see.
Beautiful experience, fantastic story told by our guide. Huge job done by the Dutch to fight the sea
Very punctual, very kind and very prepared companion. Zaanse Schans looks like a postcard. I recommend the tour.
Italian guides very nice and very prepared, but in my opinion little time for us, we did not continue with the visit to the fishing village and maybe they could have left us a little more time, but still a wonderful place!
Nice trip out of town reachable from Amsterdam in about half an hour. Pleasant location with spice mill, chocolate mill and clog factory with demonstration
Excellent organization. Staff prepared, friendly and helpful. Fantastic location. Advice from viator more information on the differences between the various tours
Very nice area to see although very touristy with cottages / shop and mills / shop that sold souvenir cheese clogs chocolate ... very green very nice peace.
Beautiful tour to discover also Voledam and Marken!!! All beautiful. We had a lot of fun and our guide Anna was nice and preparatita.ci explained a lot about places and life in Amsterdam!! Experience not to be missed if you are in Amsterdam and of course with Amsterdam Viaggi!!!
Anna Gianni Gianluca were wonderful they accompanied us all day in beautiful places I highly recommend
We stayed on June 2: we were 14 in all and the two guides (Valerio and Anna) were exceptional: nice, prepared, ready to answer all our questions. In short, an experience to recommend (continued in the afternoon in Volendam and Marken Island). At the end of the day thanks to the empathy created between everyone (and favored by the two guides), we seemed like a group of friends! Thanks also to the other guide Luca who solved a problem. Given the great experience I am recommending Amsterdam Viaggi to all friends who are planning to visit Amsterdam.
Our guides Valerio and Anna were kind, friendly and prepared. A very very satisfying guided tour from every point of view. A heartfelt thanks also to Luca (another group guide) who solved a problem with the utmost availability and kindness. In short, an unforgettable experience. Thank you very much
Una bella gita corredata da una assistenza impeccabile. I ragazzi che ci hanno accompagnato sono stati molto cordiali e pronti ad ogni nostra domanda. Inoltre la loro gentilezza è stata perfetta!
Almost personalized experience!!!! we were only 3 couples and the Italian guide very helpful and nice. Very very nice as an excursion even though the weather was cloudy and it even started raining on the end .. I absolutely recommend it as an experience in Amsterdam!!!
Bella esperienza. La nostra guida era preparata e ha spiegato in modo esaustivo ma non noioso le curiosità su questa zona vicino a Amsterdam. Puntuali e ben organizzati negli spostamenti. Minibus pulito e comodo. Punto di ritrovo vicino alla stazione facile da trovare. Consigliato!
Interesting experience. The guide very friendly and informed, the interesting route, shame that the mills were stopped and we did not see the inner workings
bella esperienza, tour da fare per uscire dalla città.. Abbiamo fatto upgrade in loco aggiungendo alla visita anche volendam.. Guide simpatiche che hanno spiegato bene storia e curiosità su ams e i paesi bassi.. La consiglierei
Everything perfect drives the timing. The day was rainy but our guide showed us everything. I will definitely do it again
Tour ben organizzato con visita al paese di zaanse schans che, pur eseendo effettivamente abbastanza turistico, da uno spaccato della vita dei paesini di una volta. Molto bravo Valerio, ottima e preparata guida
Tuor bello. Guide simpaticissime e competenti, si visita la fabbrica di zoccoli la fabbrica di cioccolato e molte altre cose
The welcoming and very knowledgeable guides accompanied us on the windmill tour to Zaanse Schans. Dream atmosphere. To be redone
