Welcome to Amsterdam

Day 1

Duration: 1

What better place to start your jaunt through the Netherlands than Amsterdam! Spend your day strolling through its pretty streets beside tree-lined canals, stopping to enjoy coffee and speculaas along the way.

Explore Amsterdam’s Art and Architecture

Day 2

Duration: 1

Accommodation: Bilderberg Garden

Delve into the Dutch Golden Age and its extraordinary art, architecture and history. Dive into Culture as you join a small group sightseeing tour of the Rijksmuseum, where you’ll see the works of great Dutch masters, including Rembrandt’s The Night Watch.

Day 3

Duration: 1

Rise with the birds this morning to visit Aalsmeer and its vibrant flower auction, filled with the vividly-hued blooms for which Holland is so famous. Alternatively, during the flowering season (late March until mid-May), we'll enjoy an included visit to the tulip gardens of Keukenhof. The mesmerising sight of millions of flowering bulbs planted across 32 hectares will leave you awestruck. This afternoon, travel via The Hague to the historic town of Delft and Dive Into Culture at the Royal Delft Pottery workshop where you'll gain insights into the production of this delicate hand-painted blue and white porcelain. Continue to edgy Rotterdam, which was rebuilt from the ground up after being destroyed during World War II. Your orientation tour will reveal an innovative city with architectural treasures worth capturing on camera and a vibrant multicultural scene around every turn.

Enjoy a morning at leisure, or perhaps consider joining an Optional Experience to visit the UNESCO World Heritage-listed village of Kinderdijk, famous for its 19 monumental windmills.
