Amsterdam country side tour by car Activity - Amsterdam Travel Guide

Overview

Escape the city! A few miles outside Amsterdam lays the beautiful countryside of Holland. See the windmills, taste the cheese or see the wooden shoes. Go Dutch with your tour guide and get the real taste of Holland! Fantastic experience to do during bad weather. We come at places where no tourbusses can come.

We drive north to the small historic fishermen village of Marken. We have a short walk in the village where I explain some of the history. In the harbor of Marken we will stop at a local dutch cafe for coffee, tea and dutch apple pie. From Marken we drive to the wooden shoe and cheese factory. There I will show how cheese and wooden shoes are made. You can try to walk on wooden shoes and taste all the different kinds of cheeses. After the experience we drive to the traditional sawmill where they still saw wood as in the old days. The windmill shows the big industrial revolution in the 16th century. After that amazing experience we drive back to Amsterdam.
