1.Zaanse Schans, Edam, Volendam & Marken Bus Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 15,034 reviews · 8 hours · from $32Our pick

Day trip from Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans, Edam, Volendam and Marken for windmills, clog demos, and cheese tasting.

“Visiting in January, the heated coach was incredibly convenient—much better than navigating the cold public transport! Volendam was the highlight; it felt like a vibrant local island. The fried fish there was outstanding—tender, crispy, and honestly better than any I’ve had in the UK! Edam was also fascinating; we learned so much about Dutch history and culture. The Windmill Village (Zaanse Schans) is stunning and a must-see. Despite the drizzle, it was a beautiful experience. Don't miss the hot chocolate and fresh Stroopwafels—they are absolutely mind-blowing! Pro tip: You’ll visit a cheese factory, but keep in mind that the same brand is available everywhere in Amsterdam city centre. No ne...”

“David was our lovely tour guide on what was a really busy, crowded day in Amsterdam. Bikes were easy to use and comfortable. We covered nearly 10 miles exploring the city with a small group. Lots of stops for David to tell us all about the history etc of the city. Nice half hour stop at Vondelpark for refreshments etc. Saw so much of the city. You just need to be acutely aware of everyone around you when cycling as it is a crazy environment. We loved it. Highly recommend.”

It's easy enough to get there without a tour, but we appreciated not having to do anymore organizing of activities.”

“I am writing to provide comprehensive feedback regarding my recent experience on your tour. While certain elements were commendable, several aspects related to the organization and communication significantly impacted the overall enjoyment of the day. Throughout the itinerary, there was a noticeable lack of clear direction, which frequently left participants feeling disoriented about where to proceed or what activities were planned at each stop. This absence of proactive guidance led to confusion among guests. Furthermore, some logistical arrangements appeared inefficient. For example, several walking segments involved considerable distances or backtracking, which could have been optimized. ...”

Small-group Amsterdam food and culture tour with tastings, Jordaan walks, flower market stops, and Roman’s e-book favorites.

“This food tour was one of the highlights of my time in Amsterdam. It was a group tour with people I didn’t know beforehand, but that honestly made it even more fun — it was great meeting and sharing food with people from all over the world. The food itself was really fun and interesting, with a nice mix of flavors and local spots I never would’ve found on my own. But the real star of the experience was our tour guide, Roman. He was absolutely out of this world — knowledgeable, funny, engaging, and genuinely passionate about the city and its food. Roman made everyone feel welcome and turned…”

It was thoughtful, emotional, and so well-presented — I’m truly glad we did this. Truly unforgettable and the biggest highlight of my trip!”
