What does make the Netherlands so special and memorable? Many travelers would definitely say: 'bicycles, endless tulip fields, and, of course, the windmills!' And this is true :).
Dutch landscape with a lot of old windmills and green wooden houses is definitely one of the most beautiful things to look at. Together with you, we would like to travel back in time and enjoy this beautiful day in countryside!

We will meet at the Amsterdam Centraal Station, from where we will take a train to the fairy-tale windmill village, which only takes 15 minutes to get to.
Over there we will have a huge amount of local sightseeings on the way and we will definitely try to visit all of them, strolling along an incredibly beautiful landscape with a view of polders, old wooden houses, movable bridges, wild swans and white lambs.
