About this activity
Leave the city behind and experience classic Dutch countryside—polders, dikes, farmhouses—en route to historic Zaanse Schans. Famous for green wooden houses and windmills along the Zaan River.
Stroll with your guide through the village to a traditional clog workshop, watching wooden shoes made by hand and machine. Guide explains the windmills; optional entry.
At a cheese farm, learn the cheese-making process with tasting. Free time to explore, photograph, shop. Small group means personal pace.
After Zaanse Schans, comfortable minibus returns you to Amsterdam.
