What travelers think of our Amsterdam experiences
What you’ll do
Between mid-March and mid-May, something magical happens in the Bollenstreek bulb region: sprawling fields of Dutch tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, orchids, roses, lilies, carnations, and irises bloom in unison, and the area transforms into a kaleidoscope of springtime colors. With your local host to lead the way, you’ll explore the quintessentially Dutch charm of Keukenhof Gardens, one of the world’s most extensive flower gardens. Weave through fields of blooming bulbs on foot or by rented bicycle (this is the Netherlands, after all), or relax on a boat slowly cruising through the idyllic landscape. When lunch rolls around, settle down for a peaceful picnic in the park or grab a portion of small, fluffy poffertjies before returning to Amsterdam via the Keukenhof Express Bus.
