Ohio sees tulips and Delft pottery - We were a small party of 3 which left more time to explore the gardens and Delft. While the tulip fields had primarily completed their season the gardens contained numerous tulips as well as other flowers- absolutely gorgeous! The driver was pleasant and helpful. The pottery stop in Delft was educational and fun.

A good day spent in the Netherlands - Veronica is a great guide. Very informative and handled our group well. The gardens are amazing. We also stopped for pictures in tulip fields. The trip to Delft is worth while to see a smaller city away from Amsterdam. Also visited a pottery shop where the owner gave us an overview of the process of making pottery.

Beautiful day - The Keukenhof Gardens was exceptional. We had more than enough time to wander and take in the stunning flowers. Delft was ok, but did not feel that added much to the day. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. This is a must if you are in Amsterdam in the spring.

First tulip experience - The garden was beautiful and the stop at delft was very pleasant. However, we had difficulty in understanding the guide as his English proficiency was not great. Despite only 8 of us in the tour, he lost us in delft and we had to navigate our way to him .

Yes to Keukenhof, maybe a different option. - Keukenhof absolutely worth it even at the very end of the tulip season. Very happy to have visited and Delft is charming. Our guide was very nice and very knowledgeable but hard for Americans to understand due to a strong accent.
Instead of the large vehicle we expected we were constrained to a mini-van as only five had signed up. One person was sick and coughed and sneezed on everyone the entire trip, which made for a stressful experience. I’m not a big fan of masks but it would have been great if the driver had had some on hand given the tight quarters and clearly ill client.
Prolonging the trip with a drive through The Hague didn’t seem like a great idea time wise. Very expensive for the experience and if I had it to do over I would choose an option where the vehicle would have been more spacious and the time frame a bit shorter.

Ok - Tour guide was kind & tried, but left much to be desired. He was constantly commenting on how “tulips were better last week” which just felt frustrating. I enjoyed delft and our free time during the day. The biggest disappointment was the tulip fields were literally one field by the side of the road we had a quick stop at

Good tour; Driver so-so. - The gardens themselves were beautiful even though peak tulip season had passed. Really enjoyed the town of Delft and learning how Delft items were made. It would have been nice to know beforehand that there would be a visit to a cheese shop in Delft.
Our driver did not speak a lot of English and sitting in the very back of the minivan, we couldn’t always hear him. He didn’t give a whole lot of information about anything. He was though very clear about where and when we were to meet up with him.
We booked through Viator and didn’t know the tour company or our driver’s name beforehand. Others we talked to while waiting for the tour to begin, knew these things.

Not recommended. - The places we visited were lovely, we really did enjoy the Keukenhof gardens and Delft.
However the minivan buses (which seat 8) were very small and did not have enough leg room, I am an average sized person. Our driver did not speak good english - he was Spanish and only come over to drive for the tulip season - so he was not a guide. He didnt really know anything about the area.
He also managed to drive over a very large traffic cone which then got stuck under the van. He had no idea where the jack was to lift up the car. Originally he was actually trying to drive with it stuck under there, and we were saying, no - stop the van, we have to get off! If it hadnt been for the very practical intervention of a fellow traveller - who knows how long it would have taken to sort the problem out. As it was it took around 30 - 40 minutes, which meant we missed out on visiting the cheese room in Delft. The lady in charge was with the other mini van, and after a cursory attempt to help then just drove off and left us. I appreciate the other group wanted to stay on time, but there was not a single word of apology from her or even an attempt to talk to us about what might happen next. She also did not attempt to follow up later in the day, or talk to us at the end of the tour. It was all very disappointing. I know things can happen, but they didnt handle it well at all. Thank goodness it wasnt something more serious. I dont think I can recommend Cherry Travel Tours to other travellers.
