Our tour to Keukenhof, a farm and Schans was excellent. We had plenty of time to wander through the gardens and the tulips were at the height of the bloom season.. At the farm we tasted cheese & watched a gentleman doing a demonstration of making wooden shoes. Schans was also a wonderful experience. Preserving the Dutch culture with the original Dutch houses and windmills. We were also able to climb a ladder inside the windmill for an amazing view of the area.

The tulips were beautiful and Keukenhof was a wonderful stop though I would have liked more history and a better map. The windmills were awe-inspiring though the destination is just that - a destination. It felt touristy but I guess that’s to be expected. The transportation was comfortable and the cheese tasting was delicious! I would recommend this excursion for sure.

Guide was excellent. He checked ahead to avoid the massive crowds at the cheese making and clogs stop- it was perfect- he chose a different location , we were the only ones there. we had plenty of time at the tulips. definitely would recommend a small group tour as well.

Having a small group tour to the tulips and Windmills of Amsterdam was delightful. We were able to get out of the city to the gardens quickly with the smaller mini bus and much easier to keep 12 people on time,to meet up at a certain time. David, our driver/guide was a pleasant young man. Communication was excellent. He knew a lot about Dutch History and was a wealth of information.
