World Heritage Kinderdijk
Explore the breathtaking beauty of Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that showcases the Netherlands at its most iconic. Home to 19 historic windmills, Kinderdijk is a masterpiece of Dutch ingenuity and a symbol of the country's centuries-long battle with water. Because here, the mills were used as wind-driven water pumps to make land out of water. And they stood the test of time since the 18th century. Step inside an authentic windmill to experience life as it once was for the millers and their families. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, nature lover, or photography fan, Kinderdijk offers an unforgettable journey through the Netherlands’ rich heritage.

Indulge in the flavors of the Netherlands with a visit to the historic town of Gouda. Famous for its world-renowned cheese, this charming town also boasts a stunning market square, an enchanting 15th-century town hall, and picturesque Dutch canals. As we stroll through these beautiful landmarks, we'll visit the Gouda Cheese Experience, an interactive museum dedicated to the rich tradition of Gouda cheese. Here, you'll dive into the fascinating world of cheese-making, from its centuries-old history to the craftsmanship behind every wheel. Engage your senses as you explore the process—and, of course, no visit would be complete without tasting the delicious cheese! Even our lunch break in Gouda is special. "Hofje van Jongkind", a hidden gem dating back to 1702, is tucked away in the heart of the city. Step back in time to when this charming spot was still a courtyard (hofje), and savor freshly roasted coffee alongside delicious homemade dishes
