It was a beautiful drive in the countryside with cattle, sheep, goats, canals, cheese shop, wooden shoe making demonstration, cute houses.

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 34 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $45

Ride an e-bike from Amsterdam to windmills, villages, farms, and harbor views on a friendly small-group countryside tour.

“What a great morning! Absolutely recommend this tour and the company, Those Amsterdames. We did a 2.5 hour small group tour with our knowledgeable "local" guide Kevin. The bikes are really good and provide easy riding, not too much effort required. It's a great way to see the Amsterdam countryside. Don't be put off by the cycling mayhem in the main part of the city, 5 minutes to the ferry and it becomes much calmer and more civilised. Helmets are available but very few people in Amsterdam use them, maybe they lead charmed lives. They certainly ride like they are invincible! Please do try and arrive at the time specified…”

Review of Simonehoeve’s private cheese farm and clog factory tour near Amsterdam, with tastings, demonstrations, engraving, price, and practical tips.

“The farm did not even have our booking and had to look it up on the computer but wanted to know how much we paid for it to decide what they were going to show/give us. Very basic, just a retail outlet to sell products. Not worth the effort to get to their location.”

Review of a private Amsterdam day tour combining Keukenhof, tulip fields, a tulip farm, and Zaanse Schans windmills.

“A spectacular day... Steven was our wonderful guide and we can't thank him enough for a fantastic tour we had in the outer areas of Amsterdam. We traveled from Miami with our daughters, ages 3 and 13, and my parents and husband. The private tour began in the flower fields where we had the opportunity to take some spectacular photos. We continued to a tulip farm where they had a very cute shop, and we stopped for some refreshments, relaxed for a few minutes, and bought some souvenirs. We continued our tour at Keukenhof Tulip Park. It's spectacular; you can see a wide variety of tulips, orchids… We spent about…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $470

Visit Dutch tulip fields, Keukenhof, Zaanse Schans, and a cheese farm on a private 8-hour tour from Amsterdam.

“Our guide, Martin, was kind, knowledgeable, an excellent driver, and knew just what to do and what not to bother with. The Tulip Experience was LOVELY and a good lesson, but Kuekenhof was AMAZING!!! Then we learned quite a bit visiting the windmills (great souvenir shopping), and then off to the farm we went. We were awed at the farm and how wonderfully they are treating the cows for the best product. Were we not traveling internationally, I would have purchased several cheeses to take home.”

15.Private Farmhouse Cheesemaking Workshop

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 2 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $148

Make Dutch farmers’ cheese at a private Amsterdam-area workshop, tour a clog factory, taste local treats, and take home your cheese.

“Our excitement quickly disapated as we began this poorly run excursion. It felt more like a way for this tourist trap to encourage buying their trinkets and cheese. It was two hours. We spent at most, 45 minutes making the cheese. The guide was scattered and hurried. He would leave us to go do other activities in the shop and tell us to go walk around. Bizarre. We learned zero about the history, production, etc.”
