In our panoramic city tour, we will first measure the pulse of the city at Dam Square, a lively and popular square featuring the Royal Palace of Amsterdam, De Bijenkorf Shopping Center, Nieuwe Kerk, and the National Monument, which holds an important place in Dutch history. We will see canal houses that dazzle with their architecture during the day, take walks in the streets, and visit Red Light District (Red Light), which takes on a completely different atmosphere at night with its red rooms and is visited by many tourists. We will also visit Jordaan, one of Amsterdam's oldest, most famous, and most touristy points, Leidseplein, the square famous for the city's nightlife, and Rembrandtplein Square, named after the famous Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn and known for its statues and always being lively and bustling.

Day 2 Amsterdam (Zaanse Schans, Volendam, Marken, Giethorn)
After breakfast, full day free time. Guests who wish can join the extra organized Netherlands Wonders Zaanse Schans, Volendam, Marken, Giethorn tour (125 EUR).
In our tour, we first head to Zaanse Schans to see windmills. You will feel like you are in the 17th century in Zaanse Schans, a fairy-tale windmill village of the Netherlands, which is like an open-air museum consisting of 13 protected active windmills and 35 historical houses. After our Zaanse Schans tour, we will go to Volendam, an old fishing town. In this peaceful town, we will walk around the pier area closed to vehicle traffic, visiting colorful two-story historical houses, souvenir shops, especially cheese shops, charming cafes and restaurants, and do some shopping. From there, we move to Marken, a village located on a small island. While walking through the village, we will visit a "Marken House" overlooking the Marken harbor. This tiny house is furnished as if a fisherman family from Marken lived here until 1932 and displays the furniture and decor of that period. Inside the village, we will also visit a shop where it is shown how wooden clogs (traditional Dutch shoes) are made and where hundreds of colorful clogs are sold. Then we move to Giethoorn, known as the Venice of the Netherlands. While touring Giethoorn, which looks like a postcard with its canals, resembles a film set adapted from fairy tales, and seems like a village crafted by Hobbits, you will feel in a very unusual environment. After this very enjoyable and experience-filled tour, we return to Amsterdam. Overnight at our hotel.
 
Day 3 Amsterdam-Brussels (Antwerp)
After breakfast, we depart for Brussels. Guests who wish can join the extra organized Antwerp tour along the way (30 EUR). For this tour, we move to Antwerp, Belgium's largest 2nd city and port city. Antwerp (Anvers) is one of the second largest and very important port cities after the capital Brussels. It is one of the oldest cities in Europe. It has the world's fourth largest and Europe's second largest port. The Schelde river running through the city allows large ships to navigate up to 350 km inland. No bridges have been built over the river so as not to hinder ship passage. It is the second largest city in Belgium after the capital Brussels. During the free time given here, the fairy-tale-like streets and buildings will leave us in awe. After the Antwerp tour, we arrive in Brussels.
