“This experience was a fantastic way to spend some time out in the countryside. Shakira was our guide and she was lovely! We had a rather big group and even with a mishap of one of the participants getting a flat tire, she made sure everything ran smoothly. We went at the end of December so it was definitely cold but bearable. Make sure you have good gloves and proper winter clothing if you go on this tour (or come to Amsterdam) during the winter. Highly recommend this experience.”
