Explore the floral and cultural wonders of the Netherlands on a day trip to Keukenhof and Zaanse Schans!
From Amsterdam, you'll board a comfortable coach for a 45-minute drive through the Dutch countryside. You'll reach Keukenhof, the world's largest tulip garden, where you'll enjoy a guided tour lasting around 45 minutes before having free time to explore at your own pace.
You'll admire thousands of brightly colored tulips, narcissi and crocuses. Your guide will explain the different cultivation techniques as well as the history and symbolism of these emblematic Dutch flowers. If you're lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of rare varieties that have been extinct for over 70 years!
After this floral immersion, you'll head back to the picturesque village of Zaanse Schans. Upon arrival, your guide will offer an orientation tour to discover the history of this emblematic site.
You'll visit a wooden clog factory where local craftsmen will reveal their skills in a live demonstration. Then you'll head to a traditional farm for a tasting of Dutch cheeses. Afterwards, you'll have some free time to wander at your leisure among the village's windmills and traditional houses.
Finally, you'll head back to Amsterdam, with your head full of memories of a day rich in discovery and color.
