Full description

Leaving Amsterdam in the morning, this trip visits the traditional houses, windmills and crafts of Zaanse Schans. It includes a wooden-shoe demonstration and a cheese-farm visit with tasting, followed by time to explore independently.

A stroopwafel and guidance depend on the chosen option, and optional vouchers can add a canal cruise or a boat ride in the windmill area. Entry inside the windmills and to the Zaans Museum is not part of the basic programme.
