Today we’ll visit some truly picturesque places; the Holland of our dreams. First, we head to Zaanse Schans, with its charming houses, canals, and windmills. Then on to VOLENDAM, a very scenic fishing village. From Volendam, we’ll take a short boat ride to Marken, once an island now connected to the mainland by a fixed dike. Its houses were traditionally built on stilts to protect from flooding. In the afternoon, we’ll enjoy a guided tour of AMSTERDAM, combining several highlights: the iconic image of the windmill and the Rembrandt statue, the contemporary elegance of the South District, and the centuries-old magic of diamond cutting at Museum Square. Finally, we’ll leave the bus and walk into the heart of the city, where the tour will end. Free time to explore Amsterdam’s famous canals, markets, and cafés.
