Windmills, clogs and cheese tour

Duration ± 3½ hours
Cost: € 50,- per person
Departure: Different times available throughout the day. Departures only with a minimum of 4 persons.

The Zaanse Schans, a quaint 40- house community on the banks of the river Zaan, has them all. From the 700 windmills, which dotted the area in the 18th century, only 5 are still in operation.

The surrounding houses are constructed of green timber with traditional steep roofs and white windows.
