Please note, the Van Gogh Museum have severely restricted the amount of external guides (like me) that can work there, just a few places a day. So often I can no longer offer this tour.

The tour starts with an overview of Vincent’s life and then we follow his story through his different periods, seeing his art as well as the paintings of those who influenced him. It is possible to do both the Van Gogh Tour and the Rijksmuseum Tour one after the other with a lunch break in between.

Private Amsterdam Countryside & Windmill Tour

Join us for the most anthentic day out in Dutch countryside avoiding tourist traps. There are 2 versions of this tour: one where we visit Monnickendam and the other where we visit Edam. Monnickendam is my favourite as it is SO authentic and also in Monnickendam we have excellent apple pie. Edam is perhaps better if you have kids along.

The price has a bunch of variables:

SIZE & COST: 1 – 3 people: The vehicle is a medium sized car 600.00 euros

SIZE & COST: 4 to 8 people: The vehicle is a Mercedes Vito Tourer Minivan 650.00 euros

IF YOU CHOOSE THE MONNICKENDAM TOUR

Then add 20.00 euros per person for windmill entrance fees and aple pie & coffee in Monnickendam

IF YOU CHOOSE THE EDAM TOUR:

Then add windmill entrance 7.00 per person

Add : Old House Museum in Edam if you want me to include this: 6.00 euros per person, 3.00 euros for under 18s
