Private Driver Guide in Belgium
I am a private driver guide in Belgium. Please call me, and I will organize an unforgettable tour exploring Dutch traditions and culture for you and your family (up to 7 persons can be invited on board).
The Volendam guided tour will be one of the happiest experiences of your life. You will remember this beautiful and friendly country for a very long time.
Please call me, and as your private driver guide in Belgium, I will share more about sightseeing opportunities and tailor-made tours in Belgium, ensuring you have an exceptional and personalized experience.
Culture, traditions and life of the Dutch.
This visit is designed to introduce you to the beautiful Dutch towns of Markem, Volendam, Edam, and Enkhuizen. These charming towns have preserved their fishing village roots, where generations of Dutch people have maintained traditional lifestyles for a long time.
A visit to the Alkmaar Cheese Market is the perfect way to get to know Volendam. The market takes place every Friday at 10 a.m. in Alkmaar’s main square. This lively event is a major attraction for tourists, where the dealing and bargaining take place among cheese wheels. Several teams of cheese-porters, easily recognized by colored ribbons on their hats (blue, green, yellow, and red), participate in the market. This tradition dates back to the 14th century when merchants used the “handjeklap” barter system to negotiate prices.
Volendam is a wonderful place to learn more about Dutch traditions and culture. As a tourist guide in Belgium, I can offer you a sightseeing tour at a reasonable price. Volendam has a population of approximately 21,000 residents. It is well-known for its rich musical history and its fishing industry. Many renowned Dutch artists have lived in Volendam, and the town’s stunning landscapes make it a perfect spot for photos, especially with its fishing boats, quaint houses, and friendly people. A visit to the restaurants and hotels near the harbor will complete your experience—nothing beats enjoying a delicious lunch by the sea.
The Volendam guided tour is an excellent choice for you and your family. Since the town is not overrun with tourists, you will have a peaceful and intimate experience when exploring in a small group or alone. This sightseeing tour will provide you with a unique taste of Dutch culture and traditions, from the windmills and tulips to the dykes, cheese-making methods, local houses, and customs.
I look forward to your call next year when you plan your vacation. As your personal tourist guide in Belgium, I’m ready to share more details about sightseeing in Belgium and offer tailor-made tours at the best prices.

Namur, BastogneLatest Customer's Opinions:
Magnificent, interesting, astonishing tour. Thank you Joyce! all was very interesting. Magnificent organization.
Alkmaar was very interesting for me, because I did love cheese. At 10 o'clock in the morning bells announced about the beginning of trade. This spectacle was decorated by the porters of cheese, dressed in a white form. All so interesting! and delicious!:)
