Discover Keukenhof and Zaanse Schans Windmills from Amsterdam

WHAT TO EXPECT Upon meeting your guide at the designated location, head for Keukenhof Gardens. Take in the breathtaking scenery as you go through the bulb flower region surrounding Lisse in the Dutch countryside. When you arrive at Keukenhof Gardens, you'll receive a skip-the-line ticket. Explore themed gardens and flower sculptures while you stroll among acres of vivid tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths. Lovely ride through the bulbflower area in Lisse, which is only a short ride from Amsterdam. Depending on the season, a landscape with vibrant carpets of bulbflowers in nearly every color you can think of is visible. Next, visit Zaanse Schans, an outdoor museum including wooden homes, shops, and operational windmills from the 18th and 19th centuries. Visit the Clog Museum to observe traditional craftsmanship and wooden shoemakers in action. Learn the craft of making cheese in the Netherlands by visiting a Catharina Hoeve cheese farm where you'll sample cheeses. Travel time.
