Fantastic. The most enjoyable part in Amsterdam. - Our guide steven was fantastic. I had to walk with a cane. He made sure that I was safe at all times. He was very knowledgeable and quite friendly. I could not have asked for a better experience.

The Pefect Day with the Perfect Guide! - Before I say anything else, I just want to start off with how much we loved Steve!! He was an absolutely amazing guide!!! We started off the tour with Steve picking us up at our hotel. We went to the castle and he was so thorough with his knowledge of the history of it. After the castle he gave us the option to go straight to Utrecht or we could drive in the country and go visit a local cheese farm. We chose to go to the farm and we are so glad we did! We got to pet some calfs and the family’s dogs (which helped a lot with us missing our own dogs at home). We met the matriarch (grandma) of the family and she showed us how she made her cheese and then she open up her shop for us and let us buy some of it to take home. I would 100% go back to that cheese farm! After the farm, we drove out to Utrecht and Steve showed us around the mall and the surrounding area. We went to go see Dam Tower and the church. The architecture was absolutely stunning and the story behind the church’s history was really interesting! On the drive back to our hotel, we jammed out to some Dutch music and steve translated the words for us. Steve also gave us some great recommendations for local bars and restaurants in the area where we are staying and we can’t wait to try them! Please go on a tour with Steve! You seriously won’t regret it!!

Ask for Steven! - Steven was a fantastic guide. So knowledgeable! So kind. He showed us the castle in great detail. We went down idyllic country roads and sat beside the canal to eat cheese made by “Grandma”. We toured Utrecht and learned all about its history. Best tour ever!

Unexpected Perfection! - A super duper tour. Our guide, Steve took us to a beautiful castle nearly eight centuries old that was in absolutely pristine condition. Prior to reaching Utrecht, he eagerly demonstrated his local knowledge by taking all of the most scenic roads which led to windmills, local farms, and other hidden gems. I highly recommend this tour.
