"We had such a wonderful time on the windmill cruise! The views were beautiful and it was such a relaxing way to take in the scenery. Our guide did an excellent job — super knowledgeable, engaging and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!"
"Frits went out of his way to include my 6-year-old daughter — even letting her help steer the boat, which completely made her day. It’s rare to find someone who connects so naturally with children. Highly recommend, especially for families."
"The windmill cruise was fun and informative. We could not have had a better captain than Frits. He had just the right blend of knowledge and calm, confident enthusiasm. One of the highlights of our entire trip to the Netherlands!"
"George provided an excellent experience — humorous, lively and a true gentleman. He assisted everyone on and off the boat and made sure everyone felt safe and welcome throughout. A truly memorable tour."
"We had a private tour and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Sjors is a fantastic skipper who took his time with us. Our compliments for the complete organisation of the tour from start to finish. Absolutely worth it."
"Amazing experience — captain Frits explained the history of the place and the mills, and even tried to translate a few words into Italian for my mom. Great captain, great tour. We would book again without hesitation."
"Kevin was a great skipper — very knowledgeable, kind, polite and friendly. The trip was made all the better by the weather, the scenery and the great people we met on board. My wife and I had a wonderful time."
"Loved it! Anna and Kevin were very nice to talk to and explained the history of the windmills and houses really well. Super conversational and engaging the whole time. Would recommend to anyone visiting Zaanse Schans."
