Overview

Our journey begins at the Alkmaar Cheese Market, where you’ll witness centuries-old cheese trading traditions.

Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of Waagplein, the heart of the market. Vendors, tourists, and the ceremonial cheese bell create a vibrant scene. Enjoy lunch, shop, or stroll through Alkmaar’s charming streets before heading to your next destination.

Next, visit Zaanse Schans, a picturesque Dutch village with historic windmills and traditional crafts. Explore the iconic windmills, watch skilled craftsmen making wooden clogs, and take in the scenic surroundings for a truly Dutch experience.
