Fantastic excursion. Ian is an excellent guide. We would have loved more time at the Delft Pottery Museum and would have been fine with less time at madurodam, even though it was also fascinating. One thing that could be better: the bus was cold. Even when I asked for the temperature to be increased, it was still cold and the vent above us could not be closed. Besides that, it was enjoyable from start to finish!

It was a great day the tour guide told us about everything and the history of certain things. 10hours seemed too long at first but with the amount you see it’s definitely worth it. The tour guide and coach driver were great and nice.

It was a fun trip. Tony was very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. The stops we made were great. Only suggestion is making the boat ride shorter to spend more time at the market. Other than that everything was great.

Leidse was our guide for the day, his tour information was superb, his driving impeccable, he care and attention to his guests outstanding, would definitely do this trip again Leidse went above and beyond!! 👏😍

Fantastic guide! He shared a lot of very interesting things like as if I'm a local now. In-depth knowledge and ability to answer and follow through my questions and my special interests.
