    Fantastic experience and it was made very easy by booking through this company. All we had to do was get to the pick up spot, load up all of our stuff onto a comfortable bus, and let them do the rest. It was very nice to be able to depart when we were ready and not be held to a strict schedule since the buses departed regularly. Highly recommend!

    We went on the 6th of May this year and so far our day tour was educational and full of entertainment. Though there was only about 50% of the flowers existing as some were already harvested, Keukenhof was still attractive. Our visit to the cheese factory was lovely. To my surprise, they make nettle cheese which actually contains marijuana and the tastiest of all. Haha!! I have learned from them that Gouda cheese is mixed with whey and takes longer to process than Edam which makes it a bit more expensive than the latter. Visiting their historic windmills was a wonderful experience too whilst the entire journey was fun with our driver, Denise and our tour guide, Ara. The bus provided was huge and thankfully accommodated our suitcases. I highly recommend this unforgettable trip

    Let me first say that this is a full day of activities. Organizers and drivers were all pleasant. The tour included three stops: Tulip Farm (1.5 hours), Keukenhof Gardens (4 hours), and Windmill Cruise (1.5 hours). It was all delightful, but my favorite was the Tulip Farm. The tulips were endless. I’ve never seen colors that vibrant in my life! At the end of the day, I felt as though I’d gotten more than my money’s worth. This tour was the highlight of my Netherland’s trip.

    The nine (9) hour Keukenhof Tulip Gardens and Zaanse Windmill Tour was spectacular. We spent the morning in Zaanse viewing the windmills and historical village, and visiting a local dairy farm/ cheese and wooden clog manufacturing facility. Each stop provided its own historical interest and photographic opportunities. We then traveled on our private bus to the Keukenhof Tulip Gardens. Let me start by saying that we missed the height of the blooming season by several weeks (an early Spring in the Netherlands). That said the gardens are spectacular. It is hard to believe that the gardens are only open 2.5 months each year during the blooming season. Even without the full glory of the tulips the grounds are beautiful. To compensate for an early Spring, the gardens provided hundreds of temporary planters filled with beautiful tulips and daffodils to appease the late flock of tourists. The sculpture and rhododendrons (and other woody flowering bushes) are amazing. We took hundreds of photographs to remember the experience. To top off our experience, we purchased five dozen tulip and daffodil bulbs that will be shipped to my home in October that I will enjoy for years to come. A wonderful day well worth the price.

    The Keukenhof Gardens were amazing, the sun even came out for our visit there. TripTripadvisor’s ticket process was spot on, however we were required to arrive early to get vouchers and turn them into tickets for the bus ride and garden admission.

    A beautiful stop on our week long trip to Amsterdam. We booked our tickets as soon as they became available and took one of the first buses of the day to the gardens. It was very busy and the line for the bus was long, so I am glad we arrived early. Once you arrive to the gardens, you can explore as you wish and take your time wandering. The food was delicious at the cafe as well as the coffee and apple pie. This was a beautiful stop to see the flowers and tulips during the spring season and glad we made the trip.

    Picked up in a clean and comfortable mini-van. Enrique was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable, friendly and was kind enough to give us a mini itinerary on what to do and the best places to eat, all of which turned out really well. We wish you all the best and hope to join one of your other tours again!

    Our driver/guide
    was very friendly. The van and flag didn’t look very
    professional compared to what
    else we saw. With a microphone so we
    could all hear, some background
    about the gardens during the
    ride would
    have helped and the rest of the trip seemed a bit haphazard. We loved the gardens and Delft, but the museum wasn’t promoted and w/ 30 minutes, we just went to the beautiful shop. Perhaps, because the weather
    was so bad at the gardens, we could
    have cut that short for some time at
    the Delft Museum. Some background about the city of Delft would have
    been interesting.
    All in all, our driver just drive us from place to place and with what we paid, we expected more.

    Coach trip from Central Station to Keukenhof Gardens was good. The tulips are almost over but we enjoyed the experience anyway. Sandra the coach driver gave us just the right amount of information and her driving was excellent. Think a week earlier would have been better but at least we got good weather.

    Great experience! Tristan was very nice, talkative and flexible.
    The visit was approximately 5 hours, starting and finishing in north's Amsterdam with very interesting and diversified stops throughout the day. Also the kayak part was Beautiful!
    I strongly recommend if you want to spend a day outside and discover a bit of the Dutch culture!

    Manouk’s tour of the Red Light District was 10/10, highly recommend. It was informative, engaging, and (in the case of my 2 person tour, anyway) intimate. I learned SO much about the history of the Red Light District, leading all the way up to the current successes and challenges the district faces. The history of the district also intersects with Amsterdam’s general and drug history, all of which I learned about on the tour. You also get a little treat at the end, which is the perfect final touch. Tours aren’t allowed in the district proper, but Manouk still manages to show you a few windows from a distance and provides an easy to follow map for you to take yourself down the main canal at the end. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anybody coming to Amsterdam!
