FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

How long are private tours in the Netherlands?

Most private tours range from two hour introductions to full day experiences across the Netherlands. You can choose the length that suits your plans, and we are happy to adjust the timing to your schedule.

Can we start the tour outside of Amsterdam?

Yes. We offer private tours throughout the Netherlands and can meet you in cities such as Haarlem, Leiden, Utrecht, Rotterdam or The Hague. Pick up from hotels, cruise ports and airports is possible.

We can also do tours from the Belgium cities of Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent and Bruges. 

Are private tours suitable for families?

Yes. We adapt the pace and activities so children stay engaged, and we love shaping tours that work well for families and guests of all ages. We can include parks, cafés, playful stops and routes that keep the day relaxed and enjoyable for everyone.

Can we customise the itinerary?

Every tour is fully customised. If you want to visit windmills, towns along the coast, historic cities or countryside villages, we plan an itinerary that suits your interests.

Do you offer private transport?

For day trips across the Netherlands, we arrange private transport with a driver guide (max 8 people) or a professional driver (more than 8 people). This allows you to explore several regions comfortably in one day.

 

Why do we use both Holland and the Netherlands?

Many travellers use the word Holland when they mean the whole country. Strictly speaking, Holland refers only to two western provinces, North Holland and South Holland, where cities such as Amsterdam, Haarlem, Leiden and The Hague are located.

The Netherlands is the official name of the country. Because many of our tours take place in both Holland and the wider Netherlands, we use both terms so international visitors can easily find the experiences they are searching for.

What languages do your guides speak?

Most tours are offered in English, although several of our guides also speak Dutch, German, French, Spanish or Portuguese. If you need a specific language, we can usually arrange it.

Do you offer pick-ups from hotels, airports and cruise ports?

Yes. We meet you at any location that suits you, including hotels, river cruise ports, ocean cruise terminals, and the main airports.

What is included in a private tour?

A private guide, a personalised itinerary, flexible routing and time for spontaneous stops are always included. Tickets, food or transport can be added depending on the tour you choose.
