Get to grips with Dutch culture on a half-day morning or afternoon tour to the countryside from Amsterdam. In the company of a guide, visit the quaint villages of Zaanse Schans, Edam and Volendam in North Holland and immerse yourself in the world of dykes, windmills, cheese and clogs. See operating windmills and observe clog-making demonstrations at an open-air museum on the Zaan River; take guided tours around the picturesque old towns of Edam and Volendam, and learn about cheese production at a cheese farm or weighing house.
