Hi! I’m Stefka, your Dutch local guide — passionate about showing real Netherlands, not just the postcards. With over a decade of experience guiding travelers from all over the world, I create 100% personalized private tours that match your interests — whether you’re into history, countryside villages, food & wine, family heritage, culture, architecture, nature, bicycles, or off-the-beaten-path discoveries. We zoom away in my electric Kia eNiro to explore the real, authentic Holland beyond Amsterdam. I'm a Dutch local guide specialized in the countryside of the Netherlands and do not offer tours inside the city of Amsterdam. My tours are described as personal, flexible, relaxed, and deeply meaningful. I take time to understand what matters to you — whether that’s culture, history, food and wine, nature, heritage research, photography, or simply enjoying the slower pace of rural life. Many people tell me it feels like spending the day with a knowledgeable friend who knows all the local secrets. Whether you want a classic Amsterdam introduction, a private wine-tasting journey through Dutch vineyards and farms, or a custom day trip into charming villages and landscapes, I’ll help you build a tour that’s truly your Holland experience. toursbylocals.com I especially enjoy crafting fully customized private experiences, from exploring charming towns and countryside landscapes to connecting travelers with local makers, farmers, and winemakers. I also have a strong focus on accessible, comfortable travel, and I’m experienced in guiding guests with mobility needs. If you want to discover the Netherlands beyond the canals and crowds, I would love to take you on a day filled with beauty, calm, and true local stories. Stefka P. S.

Windmill Tour Amsterdam & Cheese, Clogs, and historic town Edam These typical Dutch highlights I will show you off-the-beaten path where you meet the locals. This private tour starts at Clara Maria, a Cheese Farm and Clog Factory. Set in the pastoral polder landscape this historic 160-year old original barn has been charmingly transformed into the wooden shoe factory and the cheese making room. A large part of land from the Netherlands has been created out of water. At "De Cruquius" steam pumping station, you find out how. We stop for lunch at the nearby tea house. Driving through 'De Beemster' polder -a lush green landscape, placed on the Unesco World Heritage list- we get to the famous icons of Holland, windmills. Go inside and see how the windmills operated and a large family was able to live inside. Edam is a authentic local village. Enjoy the architecture and friendly people of this quaint little village.
