Discover the famous cheese markets of Gouda or Alkmaar on a day trip from Amsterdam!
You'll enjoy a transfer from Amsterdam and head for Gouda or Alkmaar, depending on the day of the week. On arrival you'll be immersed in the hustle and bustle of the cheese markets, where traders and farmers perpetuate traditional negotiation rituals, including the clapping of hands to conclude sales.
On your own (without a guide), you'll wander through this amazing event, and enjoy the spectacle of the "cheese girls" dexterously handling the wheels of Dutch cheese. You'll also be able to sample a variety of cheeses, from creamy Gouda to crumbly Edam, while exploring the lively stalls offering local specialities and traditional crafts.
After this immersion in Dutch cheese culture, you'll be driven back to Amsterdam, with your head full of memories.
