Easy going private Holland tours by van (max 7 passengers). My main interest is to give you a wider view of Holland than that of only tulips, clogs and cheese. As an independent guide, I do not come with any kind of 'must-see' plan. Of course, it is important to have knowledge about the culture, the museums and history, but I prefer to show my visitors how the Dutch live. The nicest comment I ever had about my tours was that it felt like having a friend taking you sightseeing. My tours have been awarded with a 'Certificate of Excellence'.

Easy going half day tour: flower auction, tulip fields, Keukenhof gardens.
Overview of your Amsterdam tour
From March 18 until May 9 2027. Keukenhof is WOW!!! I bet you have never seen any place so beautiful in your life! Flowers of all kinds, all colours, all shades in perfect formation and bloom. Really stunning are the endless flower fields of the bulb region near Keukenhof. During my tour we will make many photo stops. If you want to walk through the flower fields my tour is the best choice. Rather than putting yourself on a big bus together with eighty fellow travellers. Maybe we will have leave around 7 am to see a different aspect of the flower trading. At the Flora Holland Aalsmeer, the largest flower auction in the world, to experience the hustle and bustle of the auction floor. For this all floral tour we will need four hours. At least! We can combine a visit to Keukenhof with my other tours.
Your Amsterdam tour itinerary
- If we leave Amsterdam very early a visit to the world's largest flower auction Flora Holland in Aalsmeer (during weekdays only). - The endless flower fields of the bulb region near Lisse (we will make many photo stops). - Keukenhof gardens flower experience with seven million tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, crocuses, lilies and other in beautifully landscaped fields (from 30th of March until te 4th of May 2024 [dates to be decided]). My tours are flexible and it is always possible to make some changes in the itinerary. We want to see as much as possible in a short time. TIP: To avoid the busiest times we could decide to visit Keukenhof as well after 4 o'clock in the afternoon. From Amsterdam it is a drive of less than one hour's drive to the gardens and tulip fields. Keukenhof park will close at 7. 30 pm and this will give you another three hours for a visit. For taking pictures these are the 'magic golden hours'.

Transport details

For the tours I have a luxury and spacious VW T5 available, with big panoramic windows. The van has big and wide doors to make it easy to get in and out. Because of the Dutch climate it has a well fuctioning heating system. And of course an air con system is integrated. My van has a baggage capacity for a standard suitcase per person plus a carry-on bag. If you are planning to take extra baggage, I can organize an additional car.
