# Amsterdam countryside tour by car

In our comparison: #14 of 48 in Windmills & Countryside Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

A unique all inclusive experience with insider access to the places we visit.
Escape the busy city! A few miles outside Amsterdam lays the beautiful countryside of Holland. Visit the windmills, explore old towns, taste Gouda cheese and Dutch apple pie. This is an all inclusive small group tour. We travel with luxurious full-size Mini Bus to our destinations. We come at places where no tourbusses can come. 

When the group is complete 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. Great time to get to know eachother a bit more. 

From Marken we drive to the wooden shoe and cheese farm. At the farm we will get a private tour how cheese and wooden shoes are made. 

The traditional sawmill where they still saw wood as in the old days. The windmill shows the big industrial revolution in the 16th century.

**Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point
