Flowerfields and Keukenhof

On this Amsterdam flower tour, you'll see a colorful array of flower bulbs as you travel through the world's largest flower garden. This tour through Keukenhof will give you plenty of time to take in the beauty of the 7,000,000 flower bulbs that comprise this beautiful garden.

Your Keukenhof flower tour begins before you even get to the garden. An air-conditioned coach ride takes you through one of the most scenic routes in Holland before arriving at Keukenhof, giving you the opportunity to witness the gorgeous tulip fields in the Dutch countryside. Upon your arrival at Keukenhof, prepare for the sight of a lifetime, almost 80 acres of daffodils, hyacinths and other breathtaking flora.

Keukenhof, which means "kitchen garden," is located southwest of Amsterdam in the town of Lisse. The area used to be a hunting area in the 15th century, and servants once picked herbs there for the kitchen of the Duchess Jacoba van Beieren (hence the name). The garden is only open for a limited time each year, from mid-March to mid-May; the rest of the year is dedicated to landscaping and planting. In addition to flowers, you'll encounter sculptures and other pieces of art that will have you reaching for your camera on this Keukenhof gardens tour.

Bring your camera and create some art of your own as you pass by antiques mansions, spectacular churches, charming houseboats and 17th century bridges. Don't leave Holland without experiencing this unique and spectacular garden. Book your Keukenhof gardens day tour today and prepare to witness natural beauty like you've never see it before.

Fabulous Garden!!
This was one of the most beautiful gardens we've ever seen. Seven million spring bulbs on 80 acres - tulips everywhere you looked. Ranks near the top of all shore excursions we've ever taken on our 35+ HAL cruises. Highly recommend this when the garden is open next spring.

Amazing garden
Can't describe how beautiful the gardens are. Huge place, so many colorful flowers everywhere. Easy bus ride there then our guide provided a very helpful guided walking tour of the grounds. We would definitely go back.

Peak Viewing!
We picked a perfect time to go to the tulip fields. Early May and the flowers were in full bloom - perfect day too, sunny and mild. If the dining is right, this is a spectacular day trip.
