Private Day Trip from Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans Windmills, Volendam, and Marken

Begin the day at 10am when your multilingual guide meets you at your hotel with a private luxury vehicle. Learn about Dutch history and the landscape you're passing through during the 20-minute drive to the working windmill village of Zaanse Schans. After you wander among the 17th-century buildings with your guide, head toward the quaint fishing village of Volendam. Admire the traditional costumes of the villagers and view the vintage fishing boats before visiting a factory for a lesson (and a taste) of Dutch cheesemaking. In your third and final stop at the village of Marken, watch a local shoemaker crafting typical wooden Dutch clogs before you're driven back to your Amsterdam hotel by 4pm.
