Our guide was very punctual. He was waiting in front of the train station with a sign that had the tour company's name on it. This made him very easy to locate. We took the local bus to Edam and Volendam. That in itself is an enjoyable experience as you see so much countryside dotted with farms and canals. The guide was very friendly and informative. There were lots of visual aides that helped to see what the towns looked like in the past in comparison to the current landscape. He knew all kinds of interesting history and quirky facts of both Edam and Volendam. Both towns were beautiful in completely different ways. This is a perfect day trip from Amsterdam. It gives you a break from the chaos for a few hours in a much calmer setting. We highly recommend this tour.
