Great itinerary, guide and experience!

Great day from start to finish! David is very friendly and knowledgable and wants to get to know his guests as well as ensure they have a great day! De Zaans Schans feels like several trips in one with clog making, cheese tasting, windmills and more! Note that entrance to the working windmills is not included but was reasonable at €10 per adult. You won’t have time to do multiple windmills so Inwould prioritise the wood milling one (Het Jonge Schaap) - and do watch the 10 minute video of the history of the area and the rebuilding of this windmill before then going into it and watching it working. On the way to Gieethoorn we stopped at a local fruit market where you can eat samples of many fruits and sweet treats and stretch your legs before you go to Gieethoorn where you will spend around 1 hour on a small boat touring the canals and lake before having approx 2 hours free time to eat/drink and take in the wonderful village.
