Welkom! I'm Hans, a true Dutchman and tourism professional since 2010. In 2025, I earned my taxi-drivers license, which means I obey all the Dutch laws, when it comes to guiding and driving you safely through the Netherlands. Together we discover the most beautiful places in the Dutch countryside, as new friends. I live in Rotterdam, where I was born and raised. After 32 years teaching at an elementary school, I decided it was time for a change and became a tour guide. During my working years in The Netherlands, I travelled a lot. From 1980 I travelled to different countries outside Europe. Since 2010 I am guiding groups in especially India, but also Nepal and Bhutan. And since 2022, after Covid, I have been working as a private guide in the Netherlands. The Netherlands is such a beautiful country and I love to explore it with you. The green meadows with cows and above it the Dutch blue skies with some clouds. Just like a 17th-century Dutch painting. In springtime decorated with the most amazing colors of blooming flower fields, yellow daffodils, red tulips, white fragrant hyacinth fields. It's a beautiful scenery that you can't see anywhere else. Place a few windmills there and you have the perfect Dutch landscape. To make sure people can still fall in love with the Dutch countryside in the future, I offer my tours sustainably. We travel off the trotted (and often harmful) tourist paths, try to reduce CO2 and when not possible compensate the emissions.

After picking you up from your accommodation in Amsterdam we quickly leave the city to explore the Dutch countryside. The Netherlands is a small country with lots to offer. I am passionate about uncovering hidden gems and showcasing the lesser-known wonders of the Netherlands. Ditch the typical tourist spots - we're all about going off-the-tourist path! This custom tour will take you to places that don't make it into travel guides, sometimes not even on the map! Imagine exploring unique locales that hold the secrets of Dutch charm. Share your special wishes, interests, or requests - whether it's exploring castles, unraveling the mysteries of water management, wandering through enchanting gardens, savoring local delicacies, tracing Dutch roots, local activities and more. Together we design your perfect Dutch Countryside Tour. * Permission to use this picture by owner: Hollandse Hoogte / ANP Foto
Our custom tour was perfect in every way. Hans was a terrific guide. I gave him a general idea of what we would like to see. He covered it all and shared his extensive knowledge. He took us to places that were not on the big coaches list. Our tour was personalized and outstanding. It was a great day in every way.
We had a great day with Hans exploring the countryside of the Netherlands. We started our day off at a working windmill and learned about their purpose, we then stopped by Castle Muiderslot for a quick tour, after the castle we headed to a small town, Weesp, for lunch and walked around the cute city. On our way back into town we stopped by a working farm that produced cheese and wooden shoes. Overall, we had a fantastic day and would definitely book more tours with Hans. Thanks Hans!
Hans is a great tour guide. He provided a great proposal for our group, and fulfilled it well, surpassing our expectations. Hans is knowledgeable about the Netherlands and provided a wonderful tour as well as making all of our necessary arrangements. We really enjoyed having Hans with us and guiding us for most of a day.

I'm a private guide with a taxi permit and therefore licensed and insured to drive you around safely. I drive an electric vehicle BYD ATTO 3 / Kia eNiro or similar. One driver seats and four passenger seats. The middle back seat is a little smaller. The vehicle has heating and air-conditioning. ## If you have a larger group, -or prefer more space- I can rent a van with 7 seats, for € 175 euro extra ##
