Early in the morning, we will start from your hotel in Amsterdam and drive ( 35 minutes) to flower auction ’Royal Flora Holland’ in Aalsmeer, 25 km south of Amsterdam.
At the flower auction, we will explain and show you the entire process of the journey that flowers and plants make from a nursery in Holland or perhaps Kenia (Africa) to eventually you, the consumer.
After the flower auction, we will drive to a Cheese farm where the farmer will show us how the milk from the cows is turned into the original farmer's cheese. You can buy cheese at this farm or send it home straight from the farm.
After the Cheese farm, we will drive to the Windmills of Zaandam at a little authentic village called ‘Zaanse Schans.’ We can visit a farm where they perform a show about how Dutch ‘Wooden shoes’ (Clogs) were made. We can visit one of the seven Windmills and get an explanation of how and why the Windmills were used.
