5 De Ruijterkade, 1013 AA, Amsterdam

Our van will pick you up in front of De Ruyterkade 5 in Amsterdam, where the "Chamber of Commerce" is located. You'll see a parking area for tour buses and vans. Just look for a vehicle with our company name on it ("Best of The Netherlands tours") and present your ticket to our guide/driver.

  • Discover the allure of an exquisite windmill in serene solitude.
  • "Discover the world's oldest operational planetarium, a UNESCO World Heritage Site."
  • Experience a stroll through the timeless streets of a Dutch Golden Age village.

Kicking off in the enchanting village of De Rijp, this tour delightfully immerses you in a scene straight out of a storybook. Marvel at the quaint wooden houses, a charming old white bridge arching over tranquil waters, and a spectacular townhall that harks back to the Dutch golden age. It's more than a walk; it's a journey through time and beauty.

Next, the adventure whisks you away to the Museummill of Schermerhorn, a stunning relic of Dutch history, boasting one of the finest windmills you'll ever lay eyes on. And the best part? It's off the beaten tourist path, offering an exclusive, intimate exploration of this magnificent structure.

Then, prepare for a cosmic leap as the tour swings into the province of Friesland, home to the fascinating Franeker Planetarium. Recently crowned a UNESCO world heritage site, it's a journey into the galaxy that's simply out of this world!

The mystery unfolds in the village of Wieuwerd, where mummies have lain in an ancient church-crypt for centuries, baffling even the most seasoned scientists.

Finally, on the return to Amsterdam, there’s a pit stop at the famed "Afsluitdijk" (enclosing dyke). So buckle up, adventure awaits!
