Take a trip back in time to discover the centuries-old traditions of Holland stopping in the pretty town of Haarlem. We join a Local Specialist this morning for a visit to the Corrie ten Boom House and Museum. Learn how this watchmaker helped countless Jews escape Nazi persecution during World War II, which ultimately led to her arrest. Dive Into Culture on a visit to historic Zaanse Schans where you'll step back in time to discover the art of carving traditional wooden clogs.
Learn about the Zuiderzee and the incredible story of the Dutch battle against the encroaching sea to reclaim the land as we travel on to the fishing village of Volendam on the shores of the IJsselmeer. Here we will meet Tom, miller of Katwoude, to investigate the inner-workings of one of the country's many iconic windmills before paying a visit to a nearby farm for a taste of delicious Dutch cheeses. This evening, we Connect With Locals to enjoy a home-cooked dinner with the Pauw family during an exclusive Be My Guest experience. (B/BMG)
The powerful aroma of delicious Dutch cheese will infuse our senses today. Seemingly frozen in time with its beautiful 15th-century town hall and medieval cheese weighing station, Gouda's status as a cheese trading town dates back to the Middle Ages. Dive Into Culture and witness this proud tradition first-hand in the town's beautiful market square, before spending the rest of the day at leisure (Please note, during the opening of Keukenhof, an excursion to see the tulip fields will be included instead of the visit to Gouda).
Returning to Amsterdam this evening, you'll be treated to a superb Farewell Dinner in the heart of the city. (B/FD)
