Alkmaar is a beautiful and exciting city to visit. And this is the prime reason: cheese!
You visit the cheese market, find out how different cheeses are made and traded and you'll even go a short walking tour with a friendly and well-informed guide. This way you're guaranteed to learn everything there is to know about cheese before heading out to discover the city on your own.
The city is drenched in history, so feast your eyes on the small squares, cute streets and of course the lively markets. We pick you up at This Is Holland at Overhoeksplein 51. You easily get here from the Central Station by taking the ferry to Buiksloterweg (this takes about five minutes). From here, it takes 75 minutes to travel to our destinations.
After getting back from our trip, you'll be dropped off at the A'DAM tower again. Did you know you that it's very easy to explore the rest of Amsterdam with our Hop on – Hop off boat that also stops at the A'DAM tower?
With your ticket you get a free Amsterdam Canal Cruise in our capital. You can take this 1 hour canal cruise on a day and time of your choice.
