Top Netherlands Outdoor Activities - page 36

Swap the city for the countryside on a day trip that covers Zaanse Schans—home to Dutch windmills and traditional villages—and the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens, where seven million flowers bloom in the springs. This private tour gives you the freedom to tailor your itinerary, and take both photos and comfort breaks whenever you need to.

Immerse yourself in Amsterdam’s unique ambiance—and enjoy plenty of beverages as you explore—on this private beer bike excursion. In the early evening, make your own way to the start point, meet your guide, and get ready to pedal: as you navigate your shared vehicle, you’ll enjoy a generous amount of beer or prosecco, will learn more about the city from your guide, and can even participate in different games as you go.

Take a break from the busy capital and discover the ‘Garden of Europe’ on a day trip to Keukenhof from Amsterdam. Explore the park’s tulip-lined pavilions with your guide and learn about the park’s botanical history, then take advantage of free time to wander at your own pace. Travel with ease to the outlying attraction with included round-trip transfer from a central Amsterdam location.

It can be difficult to find areas to take photos with thousands of blooming tulips but this private photo shoot pairs you with a local photographer to capture memories of your trip to Holland. Meet your photographer at a pre-arranged point in the early morning and head to the fields for your shoot. You can also opt to rent a bike for a ride through the fields, just let your guide know.
