Overview
Our first stop on this tour is the heritage sight Zaanse Schans, a picturesque village with wooden windmills and charming green wooden houses from the 18th and 19th century lining the water, 25 minutes from Amsterdam. Explore the windmill village lining the water, learn how clogs are made, taste some cheese, and enter a working windmill.
After this, we will continue to the fishing village Volendam at lake Markermeer, where you can see the traditional fishing boats and the folklorist costumes of the Volendam people. Here you can have a stroll in the village, shop for souvenirs or eat a delicious fish lunch. Also, there are a few museums worth a visit.
From Volendam you can take a boat to the former island village of Marken, connected since 1957 to the mainland by a causeway. This peaceful fishing village in lake Markermeer is famous for its wooden greenhouses built on stilts, its typical drawbridges, and the traditional life of the (former) islanders.
