Canal Ride in A'dam Lined with beautiful 17th and 18th-century houses and crossed by hundreds of bridges, the canals are a gorgeous sight and a focal point for Amsterdammers and visitors alike. A canal ride offers a unique window into the city's history and the lifestyle of its residents. € 10
Cheese Farms The Netherlands has a rich cheese-making history. We witness how it is traditionally made during the visit to a cheese farm and learn about the ingredients and herbs that create various flavors from farm to farm.
Keukenhof With more than seven million flowers, Keukenhof is one of the world's largest flower gardens. Each year, Keukenhof is open only two months in spring to show off the best of Dutch tulips, crocuses, narcissus (daffodils), and other bulb flowers. The spectacular flower display, various playgrounds, public art, and performances make this a memorable visit for the entire family. € 18
Scheveningen The most popular stretch of sand in Holland, between The Hague and the sea, is an excellent place for walking, sunning, swimming, as well as surfing. Scheveningen boasts many beach pavilions, restaurants, an abundance of attractions, and family-friendly activities.
Tulip Parade Volendam is a traditional fishing and farming village located on the shore of the IJsselmeer. The old harbor, colorful houses, locals wearing costumes, and popular Dutch wooden shoes are great for holiday pictures.
