VELTRA tours & activities, fun things to do

Review for Day Trip fromAmsterdam to Marken, Volendam & Dutch Windmill Village

I will say that my experience with Veltra just average. Although the tour group size is big but there are 2 tour guides. They are good in concerning our safety with bicycles on the road. However, their English need to improve better.
The itinerary mentioned in the website is 6 hours but the actual itinerary only took about 5 hours. I felt rushing like duck. We do not have much time for photography. In order to have more time for photography, I sacrifice the briefing of the cheese-making and Dutch windmill. Actually I don't understand the rushing as according to the website, we should have 6 hours. The extra 1 hour really make the difference. In fact, I think the tour guide is rushing for next itinerary.
Frankly speaking, the reason why I chose Veltra first place is because I hope that my review submission will get back 50% of the day trip price. Then it will be a value worth day trip.

I think it was worth spent. The tour went fairly punctual that at some place the bus left the lazy tourists who did not return to the bus on time. And I think it was very good for the rest of people.

The tour was lovely and the places we visited were excellent however the time was too short for first stop on the other hand we were given long free time before the boat rid . Tour group was so big that we couldn't here the tour guide instruction at some times. its advisable to give a printed tour agenda to make sure that every one is fully aware of the timing and the places .

Bon guide - variété dans la visite, intéressant pour les enfants

depending on weather it can be delightful or just interesting, I did it twice over the years

This is a 'mass production line' tour, but if you go expecting that is what it is, it is worthwhile doing. Of course it is geared to get people into the local souvenir shops buying the produce and trinkets. You don't have to buy though. Even for lunch, the guide recommends a place to eat, but you can make your own decision where you go. It was a helpful tour to see a bit of the countryside and some things generally associated with The Netherlands.
