Tour did not let us know they were running late. They eventually responded when I contacted thru Trip Advisor. We started 30 minutes late but duration of tour was not extended to make up for it. Instead the time was cut off of Keukenhof tulips. Never had that happen on any tour before and we have toured extensively. Initially in 2 vans. Part of group wanted loud music and to sing so driver allowed without considering needs of others. At end of tour same driver took 10 of the people back to their hotel but not the remaining 3 of us, even though everyone arrived at tour departure site on their own. No issue with this if they had offered this courtesy to everyone but they did not. Callum, the guide, was knowledgeable and kind.

Lovely visit to Zaanse Schan in spring sunshine . Excellent guide took us round the pretty village with stops at clog demo, cheese shop and working windmill. Beautiful location well worth a visit . Subsequently dropped off at Keukenhof gardens for 3 hours to see spectacular Tulip displays in lovely woodland setting . 2-2.5 hrs would have been sufficient as return journey started after 7pm

Fabulous day! Got some great insight into Dutch traditions, tasted delicious cheeses, and enjoyed the beautiful tulips. A truly exceptional experience.

I do not recommend this tour company. Horrible experience. Guide was not at designated pick up. Finally found her and got on bus. I specifically choose a small group tour for an intimate and personalize experience. Ability to hear information and ask questions, etc. Also larger tours often have delays due to group size (often 50+ppl) and often difficult to hear guide when narrating during tour or answer questions. Our group was 12 to start. No narrative on 40+min ride. Upon arrival we were left at gate w/ticket and map. Given lactation and time for pick up. Told we would eat at next stop but grab a light snack if we wanted. Everyone met on time however no show by guide and bus! Another passenger finally heard back they were running late. 45 min later a different guide showed up with the same bus driver and bus. Again 30min + drive w/no narrative about country or what we were to see. We were now way behind schedule and rushed. 4 of our group had to leave and Uber back at a high price due to other tour obligations. No time to eat (as stated earlier by guide) so many of us were starving. The guide seemed surprised we didn’t have “snacks with us to eat”. No we were told there would be time to have lunch. It was 3:30 and we were to leave at 430. We had rushed demos combo with other groups because our group was late. Missed out on a demo because we had to meet back for bus pick up. However bus AGAIN was late by almost an hour. Mean while we were about to fully walk and see sights because guide was told it would here in 10 -15 min, multiple time (actually being about an hr). The topper was at about 530 pm we are picked up only to have driver and guide swapped out. Then bus stalled. Finally stated and on our way. The beer that was offered as consultation prize for horrible experience was not available (or even water), but wait for it…the bus takes a 10 min detour to drop off the guide to her car!! It was so astonishing and unbelievable. She got off the bus leaving us with the driver to return to our drop off 30+ min away. Whole experience was unbelievable. I would not recommend this company at all. La Vacanza Travel was contacted and informed. I am hopeful for a refund as this was NOT what was advertised.

The garden and village were beautiful. The coordination was terrible. The tour bus was 40 minutes late picking us up from the gardens. The bus was again 30 minutes late picking us up from the village. We then stopped on the way back to the drop off the tour guide at another location. It made for a long day of waiting around. Half our group had to take an Uber back because they had other commitments that they were going to miss because of the delays.
