Zaanse Schans must be the best day trip out of Amsterdam, yes it’s touristic, but the windmills are in working order and are fascinating, and there are several other mini-museums in the village, you can see clogs being made, the antique clocks, or buy sweets from the oldest Albert Heijn shop (or rather a replica of the oldest shop). Just to complete the Dutch day out, there’s a pancake restaurant.
