  Amsterdam: Canal Cruise, Rijksmuseum, Anne Frank House

  Breakfast at the hotel.
  
  First, no visit to Amsterdam is complete without a canal cruise. Accompanied by a private guide, you’ll enjoy the beautiful cityscape that has evolved since the 17th century while learning about its rich history and culture.
  The tour concludes at the Rijksmuseum, the most renowned museum in the Netherlands, which houses masterpieces like Rembrandt’s 'The Night Watch' and works by renowned 17th-century Dutch artists.
  
  In the afternoon, you’ll visit the Anne Frank House.
  This is the building where a family hid for over two years, famously featured in 'The Diary of Anne Frank'—a diary that many read during their student days, written by a young Jewish girl during World War II.
  Today, it is preserved as a museum that continues to convey the tragedies of war.

• Day 3

  

  Sightseeing in Marken, Volendam, Edam, and Zaanse Schans

  Breakfast at the hotel.
  On Day 3, you’ll tour the northern towns surrounding Amsterdam to see iconic Dutch symbols such as wooden shoes, fishing traditions, cheese, and windmills.
  
  First, you’ll be driven to the town of Marken, located by Lake Marker, where you’ll visit a quaint wooden shoe factory in the village. 　
  
  From Marken, you’ll take a ferry to the village of Volendam, renowned for its harbor filled with historic fishing boats. If the opportunity arises during your trip, be sure to sample the freshwater fish caught in Lake IJssel.
  
  Next, you’ll visit the famous Dutch cheese market, celebrated for its dairy heritage! Although the actual market is only open on Wednesdays during July and August, even visiting the square on other days is well worth it—especially given the astonishing variety of cheeses that you wouldn’t imagine finding in Japan.
  Finally, you’ll visit the windmills of Zaanse Schans. In the 17th century, during a period of rapid industrialization, over 600 windmills were built to grind spices, produce paint, cut wood, and manufacture oil. Today, it remains a beautiful spot that continues to attract visitors.
