In a quirky Dutch-ism, Amsterdam may be the official capital of the Netherlands, but it’s The Hague (Den Haag) where the government sits (along with several international courts, for which the city’s best known). Cosmopolitan and cultured, The Hague is Holland’s third-largest town, with just under 500,000 people. Conveniently, the beach resort of Scheveningen is part of The Hague, and en route lies the family-friendly Madurodam, a fascinating 1/25 miniature display of a fictitious Dutch city.

We travelled by train to Amsterdam and only saw one windmill - went past too quickly to get a photo. Zaanse Sch.. is a site where working windmills and other traditional Dutch working buildings have been brought together in one place. Plenty to see and do. Visiting inside of windmill was fascinating. The working clogs museum showing how they were traditionally made and more recent "industrial" processes was also worthwhile.

With all those (Covid...)-reasons, nowadays, to be disappointed, anxious, edgy... Most important to stay actively positive, don't you think? The good news: LOVE is the answer. That's why in this walk we open - as a start - our eyes more for love. It's all around us: let's be more aware of that! On purpose we walk there where you normally would shop. But now open for loving details: selflove, love towards nature, material, people, community, humanity. How to relate to it? How to keep it alive? Join and you will see: it's before our feet, all around us. More than you thought it was. We just have to see it more, see more, open up more to it. Walking & talking in The Hague's finest historical part: Royal Quarter, full of art, special products and people and details and plans. Good energy. Pretty sure you will start 'looking like this' in your own environment too. Inspiring! Includes a cup of coffee on the go.
Inclusions: Coffee and/or Tea

I really enjoyed learning about the 9 Success Factors from the Blue Zones. Sam showed us ways to incorporate these practices from his native Sardinia as we walked through The Hague. My cousin, was already very knowledgeable about this and I was a novice, but we both had a lovely time. Kitty led us to some special gardens in The Hague and showed us what plants are edible and how they can help your body.

This was an amazing tour - highly recommend! I've taken many private tours around the world and working with Sarah was a top notch experience. I took this tour with a couple of friends and we had a great good time - Stan was our guide and he was amazing. We learned a lot about the museum, the key pieces like The Night Watch and we also learned a lot about Dutch culture. I look forward to visiting Amsterdam once again so I can take more of Sarah's tours!

We just had the best day with Hans Langh, our private tour guide here in Amsterdam. I had found him through TripAdvisor, and had seen many excellent reviews on him, so I jumped right on it and reserved. So happy that we did! He was super knowledgeable about the Amsterdam area and its history, as well as the North and South Holland areas, and Schermerhorn, where there are some stunning tulip fields. We like to avoid touristy areas, and go off the beaten path, and he knew just where to take us. We also went to Keukenhof, and although it was busy as expected, it was so with it because the flowers were so beautiful. Hans is the best. Really. You will love him.
