Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Cheese Market Edam, Jan van Nieuwenhuizenplein., Edam The Netherlands

Only on Wednesday in July and August, Edam celebrates its cheese history. Upon arrival, set off on a one-hour local-guided walking tour that ends at the cheese market, where you’ll enjoy some free time (with the provided lunch pack you have more time to explore Edam!). Already since the 16th century this market largely determines the economy of Edam. Continue your explorations with a one-hour canal cruise exclusive for our group with our own skipper. Seeing Edam from the water means a guarantee for great photos.

Duration: 4 hours

Stop At: Museummolen Schermerhorn, Noordervaart 2, 1636 VL Schermerhorn The Netherlands

We make a stop at the museum mill of Schermer; a unique piece of water management from the Golden Age. The Schermerpolder, where the mill is located, was a lake of over 13 ft (4m) deep until 1633. Between 1633 and 1635 this lake was drained by 52 octagonal polder mills. The mill that you visit is one of the remaining 11 polder mills in the Schermer, and is located between 2 other mills. And the mill still works! Meet the miller & learn about his trade, before heading back to Amsterdam.

Duration: 45 minutes
