Absolutely great. The weather could have been better, but otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Amsterdam for a short time. We were there for 2-1/2 days and this tour is the perfect opportunity to see another side of the Netherlands besides Amsterdam. If you are the type of traveler who likes to spend A LOT of time in one spot, this is not the trip for you. It moves very fast. Do not get 'stuck' buying souvenirs at the Zaanse Schans Windmills stop. We spent way too long searching for the perfect souvenir and didn't realize all of the great walking areas near the windmills. You'll wish you spent more time in Marken, too. What you get is a quick walk around with the tour guide, ours was excellent and spoke several languages. This Dutch village is extremely quaint and beautiful. Overall, I recommend this tour if you are short on time - it is great!!

Great trip. Only wish it was longer. Don't be late getting back to the coach, they'll leave without you. The tour guide was fantastic. She did an excellent job.

This was a great trip. The only way to improve it would be to have a little more time at each stop.

A wonderful trip. This is well worth the price and a delightful excursion outside of Amsterdam with plenty of time to roam about on your own for those who like to shop and sightsee.
