Small-Group Tour to Windmills & Giethoorn with boat tour
The famous Dutch windmills at the Zaanse Schans and the picturesque village of Giethoorn form the perfect combination for an unforgettable day trip.
As a symbol of Dutch cultural heritage, the windmills play an important part in the country’s history. They were not only used for grinding wheat into flour, but also to pump out water from the diked marches to form one-third of today's national territory, which otherwise would have been under water. Not only, will you be able to wander amongst these architectural beauties, we will also take you to Giethoorn village, one of the most worthwhile scenic spots of the Netherlands.
Join us and experience both of these breath-taking locations in true OuYi Travel style. With a comfortable 9-seats Mercedes Van and our professional tour guide, and small groups we can offer you comfort, flexibility, and a great time.
