Hi my name is Elke. As your personal driver and tour guide I offer unique excursions to the Dutch country side. All my excursions are carefully designed to provide the most authentic and genuine experience of the Dutch landscape as possible. I have been a citizen of Amsterdam for 20 years now and have always been exploring its inner and outer surroundings, on foot, by bike and by car. I have extensive knowledge of the many small back roads and villages. Often inaccessible by big touring cars and therefor still unknown to mass tourism and exploitation. My focus is on providing exclusive , off the beaten path, excursions featuring everything that is so characteristic for the Dutch landscape like polders, windmills, low horizons and big skies. Experience a land created below sealevel. I am a certified teacher for art and cultural history. Specialties: Off the beaten track excursions North of Amsterdam I am not a museum guide. Museums usually have their own guides.

Complete with snacks, we walked through island towns, saw planned...
