Leisurely Dutch Countryside

Admire Stunning Dutch Landscapes Admire the beautiful Dutch landscape on a leisurely drive, stopping in a fishing village to taste local delicacies. You will get a sense of why this area has been described as “a creative masterpiece, created by humans.” Embark on a scenic drive by motor coach to Zaanse Schans, a charming neighborhood renowned for its collection of windmills and wooden homes from the 18th and 19th centuries. This former industrial area once featured more than 1,000 windmills; today, 13 remain. Upon arrival, tour the interior of a windmill and gain insight into its inner workings. Later, board your coach and transfer to the pretty fishing village of Volendam. Enjoy some local fish delicacies in this stunning lakeside location, including pieces of crispy cod. Afterward, return by coach to your awaiting ship. * Easy - Walking portions are generally over easy surfaces with few steps or inclines. Total time walking or standing is normally not longer than 1.5 hours.
