    Ilya was full of interesting information he was the perfect guide. He was so funny and gave us a lot of useful history. This was a great mix of things to see whilst in Amsterdam that would otherwise be missed (this was my 3rd time and I had never seen these places) I think of the tour the clog and cheese factory were the best part. I can't believe how much cheese they had us taste!

    Our guide Eduardo, was so friendly, welcoming and helpful. He was very knowledgeable, as you would expect, but he brought his own personality and unique style as well. Despite the wet and windy weather, we enjoyed the day.

    Great guide (August) very friendly and informative. We had plenty of time to see everything. We did not get to Marken due to a road closure but would recommend the trip. The farm cheese tasting was fabulous.
