I Need a Driver for Amsterdam Area
 

Father/Son May trip to Amsterdam. Can anyone recommend a good driver/guide to take me from central Amsterdam to Keukenhof and several other local sights? I am rushed for time or we would take train/bus. Thanks

Drivers are licensed like taxi drivers. So you have to book a car (via hotel) all taxi/hire cars have blue plates to distinguish them and to show they are licensed.

How <i>rushed for time</i> are you and what are the other sites?

Holland is small. Public transportation is efficient and cheap. Taxis are fast and reasonably priced.

Maybe you can move your trip up a bit if you want to have the time of your life. I recommend Amsterdam on Queen's Day, April 30. I'll be there, again.

A taxi-driver isnot a private driver.... some taxi-drivers donot even have a dutcvh background, so donot expect much information from them.
A private driver in general is a licensed guide who also drives a car.
On cruise-critics this guy has an ad, maybe you can e-mail him:

anyone tried the recommended tour person above?

we used the above tour guide during out visit to amsterdam. we had several problems with him including his anti-semitic remarks.

he also brought his dog along for the day without checking with us first re- allergies or how we felt about it.
