An office on Damark offers a range of cheesy tours round Amsterdam and its environs. I recommend the 24 euros Holland countryside tour, comprising of a cheese-tasting visit to Edam, a look at the area's windmills, a visit to a clog factory and a lunchtime stop-off at a lakeside fishing village.

Touristy and tacky, but a great way of spending four-and-a-half hours (especially if it's raining - which it was). The guide talks in English and Spanish, and it's a great way of learning about the area's history and geography without spending hours with your nose in a guidebook.

City centre, on Damark. A few doors down from the Sex Museum and quite near Centraal Station
