The journey and the host of the tour was very good.

Peace and serenity at Keukenhof

Your day spent amidst beauty begins with a single-decker coach picking you up from Amsterdam and taking you through the vivid flower fields of the Dutch countryside. Once you reach Keukenhof, spend as much time as you want strolling among the blooming bulbs of 800 varieties of tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, and spring bulbs. Watch one of the many flower shows at the many pavilions, like the anthurium and orchids show, or marvel at the art installations in the garden like Dolfijn You can also cruise through the blooms on a boat, cycle amongst the flowers, and explore the mill dating back to 1892

Historic windmills and picturesque villages

Your next stop is Zaanse Schans, where you will encounter the traditional charm of an 18th-century village with historic windmills and colorful wooden houses. Apart from the quaint windmills, visit the Clog Museum, a wooden shoemaker’s shop, and try some delicious Dutch cheese from a cheese farm. Upgrade to explore the serene Dutch countryside, including the fishing villages of Volendam, or go on an Amsterdam Canal Cruise and see sights like the Anne Frank House and the Rijksmuseum from the waters.
