About this excursion

Avoid the inconvenience of renting a car and maneuvering through unfamiliar country roads. With a personal driver/host , your tour becomes effortlessly smooth and stress-free.

Be Dutch for a day! A day full of windmills, cheese and traditional wooden clogs.

Covered with water, cows grazing the fresh grasses, colourful flowers and green-timbered houses, Zaanse Schans is home to what some call the Eighth Wonder of the World: the historic 18th-century windmills.

Everybody knows about cheese, but few know how it’s produced. Your private driver/host will take you to the place where the magic happens, where the Dutch dairy gold is crafted. You will visit a local cheese factory in the picturesque fisherman village of Volendam, where you will be taught about the cheese-making craft and enjoy a delicious cheese tasting.

With windmills and cheese on board, it’s unthinkable to skip the traditional wooden clogs in this tour.
