If this is your first visit to Holland, this tour would be a great start. Experience the best of Holland in just one day. You'll get to explore windmills, witness clogs being made, visit the former South Sea, see dikes, explore the charming fishing village of Volendam, and indulge in a cheese-tasting experience in the renowned cheese town of Edam.
This is a preservation village with a variety of historical houses, warehouses, and working industrial windmills. It feels like you’re traveling back in time! You will experience how life was between the 18th and 19th centuries, make your own hot chocolate from local produced coco powder, and join a wooden shoe workshop to see how clogs are made, concluding with a visit to two working windmills.
In Edam, we’ll take a stroll in the old centre and visit Henry Willig’s cheese shop to have a Gouda & Edam cheese tasting. They rank among the top 10 cheesemakers globally. If you’re a big cheese lover… you’ll be in cheese heaven! They have 30 flavours and design the cheeses specifically for travel.
You can choose where you want to have lunch. As locals, we know a lot of nice places. Whether it’s at a local fish restaurant or a traditional Dutch pancake restaurant, just tell us your preferences and we’ll arrange it for you.
Volendam is known as the most popular fishing village in Holland. The charm of Volendam rests in its harbour and the authentic fishermen’s houses. The maze is the oldest part of Volendam. This is where we’ll see small fishermen’s houses and narrow streets. What’s unique about the maze is that the houses were built without any street pattern. We’ll take a small stroll in the maze and on the famous dike of Volendam.
