Keukenhof and Zaanse Schans Guided Tour
What your day looks like
Leave Amsterdam aboard a comfortable coach and head into the heart of the Dutch countryside. On the way, enjoy views of colorful flower fields in bloom. At Keukenhof Gardens, begin with a 45-minute guided tour through its show gardens. Your expert guide will explain the history, cultivation, and cultural importance of the tulip, the Netherlands’ most iconic flower. Then, enjoy free time to explore at your own pace and capture stunning photos of the gardens. With a bit of luck, you may even spot rare varieties not seen for decades!
