Itinerary
1. Half an hour drive from Amsterdam city, in the middle of the authentic Dutch countryside, you will find Zaanse Schans. Covered with water, cows grazing the fresh grasses, colorful flowers and green-timbered houses, Zaanse Schans is home to what some call the Eighth Wonder of the World: the historic 18th-century windmills. Along the river Zaan, these robust windmills are lined up facing the direction from where they catch wind. Your personal chauffeur will present you with historical and cultural explanation.
2. Giethoorn, the most romantic town in the Netherlands, awaits you in Overijssel, surrounded by serene waterways and lush nature. With no cars around, many homes are only accessible by boat, and even the mail is delivered by canoe! Your visit includes a one-hour covered canal tour to explore this charming village. Glide along narrow canals, admire centuries-old thatched farmhouses, and learn about Giethoorn’s unique history—all while staying cozy, rain or shine. You’ll also have free time to enjoy lunch or take a peaceful walk, wandering under picturesque wooden bridges and soaking up the timeless atmosphere.
3. For a more personal experience, a private boat tour is also available as an optional upgrade. Please contact us for more information.
