What To Expect

Private bike tour, for groups, to the beautiful windmills of the Zaanse Schans.
With the ferry to Amsterdam Noord, through the idyllic suburbs to the nature reserve Het Twiske, over the dikes to the museum village of Zaanse Schans.

Here you have time to look around at your leisure: to visit windmills, to buy souvenirs in the numerous shops or to experience traditional handicrafts.
After about 1.5 hours we make our way back to Amsterdam.

If you wish, you can of course extend your stay in the museum village, e.g. to eat out or visit the museum, and then drive back to Amsterdam on your own.

This can also be done by train. I will be happy to give you the necessary information on site.
