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.

We had an amazing experience with, Younes as our tour guide and driver. The company, Dutch Tours, really knows how to provide a unique time and help us create lasting memories. Younes gave us so much information and took the time to explain in detail the windmill process. Our time at Henri Willig Farm was so fascinating and of course our walk through Volendam was a perfect way to end our day! Thank you so much for everything!

This was such a great tour, and we think is something everyone should consider. Elias was the best tour guide. He was so knowledgeable, nice, engaging and really made it a great day. He met us at the airport and took us on a tour of Zaanse Schans (you should be sure to go into the windmill, and get the hot chocolate with cream), see how wooden shoes are made (and understand their purpose) go on a tour of a cheese farm (which really gives you an in-depth look into how the cheese is made - and it is DELICIOUS). You get the opportunity to taste about 40 different varieties of cheese, and yes, while they are bite sized, it is a generous amount. From there to the charming fishing village Volendam, and along the way learning so much about the area in a style that even as jet lagged as we were (including our 14 year old daughter) was engaging and interesting. We cannot say enough about Elias and wish we had more time in Amsterdam to join him for other tours. Thank you so much, Elias!
