Holland in Bloom - Judy and I were overwhelmed by the beauty of the Keukenhof gardens. How fortunate we were to have visited in early May. I would include this as a must in any spring visit to Amsterdam. Additionally, the continued visit to the windmills at Zaanse was fascinating. Visit, if you have the opportunity.

Great Tour - Great tour guide - she was very knowledgeable. Our tour started a little late because of an accident but NOT a problem. You can't control the traffic.

Excellent Excursion from Amsterdam. - Beautiful tour. Keukenhof garden tulips were all in their glory. The excursion gave us plenty of time to visit the gardens and Zaanse Schans. Both attractions were a bit crowded, mainly due to the tulips in bloom, as well as nice weather, but were wonderful places to visit. Don't miss either one if you are heading to Amsterdam and have more than one day to visit the area.

A very nice day - It was a very nice day to Keukenhof and Zaanse Schans. The excursion was well organized, was not rushed and offered a lot to see and experience. The guide, Marianne was very nice and competent and has imparted a lot of background knowledge and together with the driver, allowed Peter a perfect trip.

Absolutely gorgeous flowers 💐 - The flowers and the entire park was amazing. So many colors. Our tour guide Maryanne was also great. The windmills were neat and so was the clog factory.

Good tour - Had a good experience with the tour host and company. I wish we had more organized and time at tulip fields. Couldn’t even roam the entire place and get lunch. Zaanse Schan was good too but again literally no time. No time to shop around or grab lunch. There was a very quick pit stop to a clog factory & cheese farm (they are right next door) It was a good addition. Even though it was a long day . I still think we needed more time or some time for lunch. Basically had a snack bar for the entire day.

Nicely laid out day! - We had an issue getting to the tour on time, but the team were kind enough to accommodate us and get us onto a bus that had not left. We were so thankful, but realized the tour was half English, half Spanish. That was not much of an issue and our tour host was great speaking both languages, but the cheese/ shoe making stop portion was entirely in Spanish, so we did not understand any of that part of our tour. Aside from that, the bus was nice, it was not overpacked and we were given ample time at each stop.

good and planned trip . comfortable - its good way to see all the places with u not having to plan the time and transport ! so yeah if u dont wanna buy all thr tickets urself and plan the things by urself , its a good deal. Only make sure its during the time when the tulips blooms , else its just going to a tulip plant shop .

Pretty tulips…that is all - Went here with my husband, I saw other reviews mention that it would be rather busy…that’s an understatement, it was EXTREMELY busy. I say this all first as I am normally ok with large crowds but if you are someone that gets overwhelmed by lots of people then I recommend either going when its not as busy or do something else. The tulips were beautiful but to be honest the experience was not great, the tour guide was struggling to give facts about Netherlands and tulips, being told that pick pocketers are around was unsettling given how busy the place was and yet meant to be this relaxing pretty place… I wouldn’t do this again, glad i did it once but never again.
