Top Netherlands Bus Tours - page 2

Best canal cruise experience! If you don’t want to be on a crowded boat, if you don’t like scripted narrations or even worse, taped narrations, or if you want to be treated as a visitor and not like a commodity, and most importantly, if you want a truly up-close and personal Amsterdam canal experience with an Amsterdamer who cares about his city enough to give you both the highlights and the inside perspective of what life is like on these canals, let Captain Sebi take you on a private tour of the smaller, lesser known canals as well as treat you to fine wines, authentic Dutch snacks, and stories about Amsterdam through its canal system. You will relax on his beautiful 100 year old boat, enjoy canal vistas rarely seen by visitors, and you will delight in his incisive tales of Amsterdam and its history.

Simon was our driver/tour guide and he was great. He adjusted the schedule so that we were able to enjoy our tour and avoid the crowds at Geithoorn. Zane’s Schans was done in the afternoon. I don’t think it would have made any difference when we were there. It’s just a huge tourist destination especially on the holiday. Simon also was able to find us some tulip fields to photograph as well as stop at the Lego village for pictures. Simon is a very knowledgeable guide as well as his English is perfect.

Stunning tulips and gardens. The bus was modern comfortable and the bus driver was great, Jahn. The ride was about 45-60 minutes. We were parked fairly close to the entrance which made it easy to find the bus. I can't say enough about how beautiful the flowers were and the amount of them. If you love flowers this should be on your bucket list! Highly recommend.

Our guide, Victoria, was excellent! She is incredibly knowledgeable about the museums, including: artists, individual works, and current exhibits. Victoria also speaks English which was very helpful for us. We had a great time with another lovely couple of travelers!

It was the greatest day. Our guidebooks clearly with a microtone presented the history of the country and people in a clear memorable manner. Each stop was well planned and represented the past and present. Excellent bus driver. We loved our trip it was the best mo ey we spent!

I highly recommend this experience with Dutch Tours. The owner and tour guide, Eva, is knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly has a passion for what she does. She cares about people and it shows. The content on this tour is obviously heavy but it is so important that people continue to remember the past and honor those who have endured tragedy. Eva’s personal family history adds to the impact and makes the experience even more meaningful. The travel time to and from Vught flies by as Eva shares her stories along with information about the area and answers questions. There is a nice cafe at the museum where you can have drinks & snacks along the way. Eva was prompt and the meeting place was easy to find with the instructions provided. Do not hesitate to book this tour - no one else is offering this experience and it is well worth it!

Our driver (Hans) was very polite and helpful. His car was a beautiful Mercedes and he was an excellent driver. He had some interesting facts to tell us about Amsterdam during our trip and our drive to the hotel in the Museum Quarter was smooth and relaxing.

We had a wonderful time on the bike tour. Our guide knows the area extremely well and personalized our tour to match our interests. She was great!!! The canal part was good, but they seemed more interested in the bartending part than the guide part. It would have helped if the boat driver talked and the other guy bartended. Also, ear pieces would have really helped everyone. It was sometimes hard to hear.
