    It was very interesting to see all of the history that still exists. The audio guide was great and offered in a variety of languages. I rated this as 4 starts rather than 5 because, it was difficult to see some of the buildings the night I went, may just be because it was dark. I think it would definitely be worth paying more and doing the cruise during the day.

    Hans was excellent and the tour couldn’t have been more picturesque or perfect. I had such a lovely day and saw such beautiful countryside. Hans modified the tour based on the preferences of the people on the tour. We climbed inside a windmill, saw little villages, saw cheese and clog making. Just magical.

    Definitely, something that I would personally recommend. But I would also like to mention that it is relatively slow and can get a little boring especially if you do the 1-hour tour. However, I think that it is still worth the price and would recommend it to other people. If you want to take a step further thought then I would definitely recommend taking one of the tours that serve wine and cheese and even dinner :)
