Een bijzonder mooi park,echt een aanrader.
2 mei er geweest het was er prachtig,en erg druk. Maar ondanks de drukte was het goed georganiseerd en schoon. Jammer dat een parkeerkaart voor een auto bij de ingang 14 euro kost uit de automaat ,en online 9 euro. Dan krijg je toch een gevoel dat je te grazen wordt genomen.
Toppertje!
Prachtige tuin, wat mooi aangelegd! Nog nooit geweest, maar zeker een aanrader! Alles goed geregeld, overal toiletten, veel bankjes, parkeren prima, alles gewoon top! Entreeprijs 20,- maar zeker waard.
Tulpen en nog eens tulpen wat een pracht en praal.
Hier komen bloemen en pracht met elkaar samen. Ongekend veel soorten tulpen in diverse kleuren en grootte aanwezig. Naast tulpen ook orchideeën en amaryllis aanwezig. Het park biedt jong en oud diverse vertier en opzet is ruim en geen wachtrijen ten tijde dat wij er waren. Parkeren voor de deur of anders binnen 10 minuten lopen via een van de grote parkeervelden. Ruim voldoende horeca voorzieningen die een stevig prijskaartje hanteren en soms de kwaliteit te wensen overhoudt. Slappe patat en karig belegde broodjes. Koffie en appeltaart zeer goed en aan te raden. Tickets kopen met korting via ANWB als je daar lidmaatschap van hebt loont zeer de moeite. Mensen die mindervaliden zijn kunnen prima de keukenhof bezoeken, genoeg faciliteiten die daar toe lenen. Wij raden een bezoek aan houdt rekening met beperkte openingstijden vanwege het korte seizoen.
Heeeel mooi
Heel mooie bloemenparken. Mooi onderhouden. Alles was in volle bloei op 18 april 2025. Vriendelijk personeel. Wel super druk.
Blijft mooi en de moeite waard
Blijft toch een uniek en bijzonder stukje Nederlandse cultuur. We waren dit jaar op een doordeweekse dag wat qua drukte echt een aanrader is.
Mooi maar geen 25 euro waard
Alles stond mooi in bloei, was mooi om te zien, maar veel te druk. Ik vind persoonlijk 25 euro veel geld om in een park te lopen. En 14 euro voor een parkeer ticket, die je niet nodig hebt want je rijd zo de parking af.
Geweldig
Om klokslag 8:00 stonden we voor de deur en gingen we naar binnen. Op dat moment was het nog zeer rustig in het park. Keurig onderhouden en zoveel moois: prachtige geuren en kleuren. Indrukwekkend. Ook de "exposities" in de binnenruimten zijn heel erg fraai al blijft het park/de tuinen wel het allermooiste. Vanaf 9:15 werd het drukker en om 11:00 was het zeer druk. Het is dan soms even file lopen. Maar als je om 8:00 start heb je rond 11 echt alles gezien en is het ook een mooie tijd om weer te vertrekken. Tip: zorg dat je er om 8:00 bent! Dan is het rustig en kan je in het eerste uur voldoende foto's maken zonder messenmassa op de achtergrond. Voordeel is dat je dan ook weer kan vertrekken zonder dat je in de file staat. We hebben er van genoten!
Schitterend
Het was geweldig mooi wat een kleuren En de geuren van Hyacinten , zo mooi schoon park ! En het eten lekker en niet duur! Super dag gehad !!
Prachtige bloemen
In april 2023 bezocht. Heel mooie bloemen, mooi op te zien en foto's te maken. Druk natuurlijk maar dat hoort erbij. Je kan er een lekker ijsje eten, enkel met de kaart te betalen.
prachtig 😍 echt mooie park 🌹
April 2024 voor 4e keer bezocht met 75 jarig bestaan. Was weer genieten van alle bloeiende bollen in volle grond en paviljoenen
Top park Keukenhof
Machtig mooi park, goede verzorging, schone toiletten, bloeiende bloemen. Goede catering. Wat wil een mens nog meer. Jammer dat het park over 2 weken alweer gaat sluiten. Maar ja de natuur is eigen baas
Prachtig
Vandaag een paar uur naar de Keukenhof geweest. Vroeg op gestaan maar dat loont wel: Wij konden vanaf 8.00 uur rustig rondkijken en genieten. Maar rond een uur of 10.00 uur was het gedaan met de rust…..dus toen hebben we de boottocht van 45 minuten gedaan. Toen we terug kwamen van de boottocht wisten we niet wat we zagen… zo druk. Begrijpelijk maar wij waren blij dat we er vroeg bij waren. Zowel, het parkeren, de schone toiletten en het park zelf natuurlijk, krijgen van ons een groot compliment. We kunnen de Keukenhof van harte aanbevelen. Tip: zorg dat je vanaf 7.30 uur gaat parkeren en begin om 8.00 uur.
Heel mooi kleurrijk park !
Het Keukenhof is werkelijk de moeite waard. Zoveel bloemenpracht is verbluffend. Het park is heel proper en goed onderhouden, mits de duizenden bezoekers. Ook de verschillende binnen paviljoenen zijn de moeite waard. Er zijn veel toiletten aanwezig en die zijn ook proper, geen lange wachtrijen. Ook de fluisterboot is aangenaam. Alleen jammer dat er langs het parcours veel velden al gekopt waren. Maar dit heeft waarschijnlijk met het weer en de periode te maken. Enige minpuntje : wat chaos bij het verlaten van de parking. Maar we zijn ook thuis geraakt. 😊
Waanzinnig maar loop langs restaurant Albron
Het was een prachtige ervaring en hebben er van genoten. De tulpen stonden er nog mooier bij dan verwacht. Enige negatieve was restaurant dat door @Albron wordt geëxploiteerd. Friet was koud, personeel niet ingewerkt. Toppunt was bevroren stuk appeltaart. Toen we een opmerking plaatste dat deze bevroren was zou er achter gekeken worden of er nog niet bevroren appeltaart was. Na vijf minuten wachten stond medewerkster dood leuk te vertellen aan een buitenlandse gast dat er slechts een klant was die geklaagd had dat taart bevroren was. Ondertussen was het spitsuur bij de machnetron om voor alle klagende gasten de taart te ontdooien. Helaas moet ik constateren dat personeel en manager niet geschikt zijn voor het vak horeca. Enige smet op bezoek Keukenhof maar geen reden voor negatieve feedback (zolang je maar langs Albron loopt).
Mooie plek
Buitenlandse schoonouders meegenomen naar Keukenhof en ze vonden het geweldig. Jammer dat er weinig eetgelegenheden binnen zijn.
Bloemen paradijs van Nederland
Prachtige tuinen met ontelbare soorten tulpen en andere bloemsoorten. Het mooiste wat Nederland te bieden heeft op tulpen gebied
Prachtige bloemen tuin met entertainment
keukenhof is een paradijs met bloemen vijvers bomen mooie molen met klompen terrasjes ijsverkopers etc. Gezellig om voor jong en oud een wandeling en mooie foto's te maken. Op 14 mei moederdag werd het aangevuld met klassiek concert in de bloemen tuin met proseco aardbeien om het compleet te maken
Magnificent
This was the most beautiful garden ! So many tulips every color and shape imaginable. We also saw beautiful orchids in a beautiful building. We were surprised how many places we saw to have food, we didn’t. The entire place was so crowded! We were staying at the Waldorf and booked private tours. Our guide drove us there, parked very close and gave us our tickets that were bought in advance by the tour company. We literally walked a few feet to the entrance. We spent all the time we wanted and she was waiting for us. This is a really great way to see this very busy garden and not have to get transportation, tickets or worry about parking which looked chaotic. She then drove us by the tulip fields awash in beautiful colors as far as the eye could see and a private tulip field and shop. It was a great.
We loved it! Our second visit and we would definitely come back. Try n go midweek to avoid the horrendous crowds
No trip to The Netherlands would be complete without a visit to Keukenof. This was my second visit having included it two years previously in our tour of Western Europe. Last time I had been in total awe and left entranced with it's beauty, amazed at the imagination of the gardeners and inspired to go home and revolutionise my own garden We arrived this time, having taken a train from Utrecht to Schipol and then, after a few wrong turns, found the "tulip" bus which took us to the location. Tickets can be purchased online in advance with a choice of places to pick up the bus. Arriving early is always a good idea, you definitely get to see a good section of the gardens before the crowds start to build up and more to the point you don't have to queue to show your ticket and enter. Last time we visited it was early May whereas we were coming six weeks earlier this time and there was a slight concern that we would not have such a good time. I'm going to be honest and say there were quite a few flower beds not yet in bloom but as you can see from my photos there was still plenty to see. I would opt to come late April/early May if I returned a third time. On both occasions we visited mid week. As some of the negative reviews state the “ instagram” crowd is unfortunately out in force and as much as they annoy me I don’t have the answer and apparently neither does Keukenhof or any other major attraction worldwide.
Tulip Mania at Keukenhof gardens
Our trip to Netherlands was because my mother wanted to see tulips. When we began our planning, I went through numerous blogs & vlogs. Came across the 2022, 2023 & 2024 Bloemencorso Bollenstreek (flower parade) videos. That sealed our travel dates. We knew the route of 42 kms would be crowded with locals & visitors. So planned to see it in Haarlem on 13th. Our trip to Keukenhof was the next day, on 14th. I kept a eye on the Keukenhof official website to purchase the tickets. I was to book not only the park entrance ticket but a combi with the bus included. In addition, I requested a wheelchair & booked two tickets for the whisper boat ride. We caught the very first departure from Amsterdam RAI to Keukenhof gardens on the Qbuzz route 852 at 7:30 a.m. Arrived by 8:00 a.m. We headed straight to pick the wheelchair. I was amazed to see their inventory. The staff was helpful, polite & even offered us a blanket since it was a cold morning. Next to this room is a locker room where you can store any cabin bag size luggage you have & won't require during your stay inside the garden. These counters are outside the gate. As we entered the park, a humungous display of tulips caught our attention. It was exquisite. We made our way to the restaurant for a hot breakfast. They have vegetarian options too. Post breakfast, we started exploring the park anti-clock wise only because we had booked the Whisper boat ride & did not want to get late. We have to exchange our mobile/paper voucher for a ticket. Their counter is next to the windmill. At the entrance, we were given a map of the garden. It was super helpful. every five seconds my mother would ask me if I clicked a photo or shot a video on my right or left. I think I wouldn't have covered even 10% of the garden had I paid heed to my mother. The tulips were in different colors, different stages of the bloom & we were transported to another world. The hour long boat ride was good. There are several restaurants & good carts. Some areas are staged for SM photo posts. We saw some folks bring their art/sketch books & were busy at drawing. Some families had brought picnic baskets from home/air bnb. They had spread out a blanket. Their kids were running & playing around while the adults were chilling, eating, drinking & having fun. While many spend 4 hours or so, we spent almost 9 hours. The last bus leaves at 7:30 p.m. We made our way out around 5:30 p.m. The queue was never ending but fast moving. This is one garden that I would love to go every year. When we got back to the hotel, I had over 500 photos (includes videos) from our day out! Glad we carried our power bank.
A Bucket List Attraction
A bucket list attraction for me and many others; however, I was taken aback by the sheer volume of people. There are plenty of quieter parts of the gardens to enjoy, and is a must visit when travelling to Amsterdam, but be prepared for what to expect. TIP: To avoid queuing, be sure to purchase a ticket well in advance.
Paz y tranquilidad en medio de naturaleza multicolor.
Desde 2018 en mi cumpleanos 14 de abril he ido a este parque en Lisse Netherlands visito este hermono parque cada ano donde se respira un ambiente multicolor lleno de paz y tranquilidad conectado con la naturaleza. Alrededor de este parque de keukenhof hay una infinidad de campos plenos de colores con muchos mas tulipanes. En el estacionamiento rento cicicleta cada ano y recorro estos campos. Es una experiencia extraordinaria que les recomiendo no deben de perderse.
Everywhere you turn just absolutely beautiful!
We visited Keukenhof on our very first full day in Amsterdam. We took a tour via via Tours which included three hours here before we headed to the other sites. We specifically came to Amsterdam during tulip season which this year was March 21 to May 11, we were here on April 30. I wasn’t sure that three hours was going to be too long but it’s the perfect amount of time. We got there early at 10 AM. It opens at 8 AM. We had just under three hours to tour a very large garden and everywhere you looked. Tulips were on steroids absolutely beautiful. It is a must when you are in Amsterdam or Lisse where it is located. Very easy to get around with the map that they give you. There’s plenty of places to use restrooms places to buy food, etc. some gift shops, etc. I purchased a bag that says Keukenhof. Highly recommended coming here. If I was driving myself, I would’ve been there when they opened up at 8 AM to avoid the crowds. We got there at 10 AM with our tour which was a small tour and by 1130 the place was packed, but we were gone by 12:45 p.m. Kudos to the staff in the upkeep in the groundskeepers unbelievable. 1.6 million people visit within seven weeks to view tulips worth every penny you pay for your tour. There were plenty of places all around the gardens for restaurants, shops, bathrooms, etc., places to sit if you needed to rest. They had vendors with strawberries and whipped cream. There was an ice cream stand. Make it a must when in Amsterdam.
Beautiful but busy
Amazing gardens full of beautiful flowers, including a wide variety of tulips. We went on its last weekend and the flowers that were in full sunlight had certainly seen better days, but those in shade and indoors were still in full bloom. We could easily have spent a full day in Keukenhof but we do believe it is spoiled slightly by how busy it is, with so many people there crowding around 'instagrammable' parts. The crowds, often there just to take photographs of themselves, did spoil the experience a little as it gave off a very superficial, shallow feeling. We didn't let this ruin our experience however and still had a great time!
Worth visit
Fabulous Tulip Gardens. Acres of designed bulb gardens, only open 8wks of year approx March & April Plenty of of places to eat & drink Guide plan quite difficult to interpret, we found best to just wander Easy, well maintained paths Interesting museum & information places Numerous “Intagramers” Dogs allowed, cycles only outside gardens Gets extremely busy Must book in advance More than adequate car park but surrounding roads chaotic. We went at opening time 8am and would recommend this, early before the huge crowds.
A Springtime Dutch Staple
We visited Keukenhof a little late in the season, so the tulip displays weren’t quite at their peak, but we still had a wonderful time. There were still plenty of tulips in bloom, and the gardens are so beautifully designed that it’s hard not to be impressed no matter when you go. We really enjoyed the other fun activations in the park, like visiting Miffy’s house, climbing the windmill, and indulging in a warm stroopwafel. Keukenhof is a springtime staple in Holland for a reason. Definitely worth a visit, but expect large crowds no matter the weather.
Dream tulpen garden
Absolutely beautiful gardens and tulips flowers. Is a must to visit while visiting the Netherlands during spring time.
Exceptionnel!
Le parc est très grand et magnifiquement entretenu. Pour ceux qui aiment les fleurs, c'est une promenade au paradis. Très recommandé.
A perfect place to enjoy spring and nature’s beauty!
Keukenhof is a beautiful flower garden just 40 minutes from Amsterdam. It’s open only in spring, for about 8 weeks, and during this time, you can see millions of colorful flowers, especially tulips. The garden is very big and well maintained, with plenty of walking paths and nice spots to take photos. There are food stalls, live music, and a playground for kids, so it’s great for families too. You can also take a boat tour to see the surrounding flower fields from the water. Tickets are easy to buy online, and I recommend visiting on a weekday to avoid crowds.
Meraviglioso - Awesome!
Visitare questo parco è una meraviglia per gli occhi, curato in ogni dettaglio, fiori stupendi e, nel nostro caso, una giornata di splendido sole hanno reso la visita indimenticabile! All'interno abbiamo usufruito di una caffetteria per una fetta di torta all'aria aperta, servizi collocati all'interno del parco tutto molto ben organizzato. Un consiglio: recarsi al mattino appena apre offere la possibilità di godere della tranquillità e meraviglia del parco che verso mezzogiorno diventa a volte un pochino troppo affollato.
Beautiful place 🌷
Beautiful place 🌷 Words can’t describe how amazing the flowers looked in person! The ice cream was a bonus! Would love to visit again 🥰
Molto meglio del previsto
Mi sono recata in data 08 maggio, quindi verso chiusura del parco e a campi esterni al parco già raccolti, quindi pensavo che fosse un trappolone per turisti ma unico modo di vedere i tulipani. Mi sbagliavo alla grande, il parco è veramente ben curato e pieno di fiori, i dipendenti passano a togliere i fiori secchi e ne mettono di nuovi, il bello rispetto ai campi coltivati è che si vedono veramente tante varietà di fiori dalle sfumature più disparate. Veramente Bellissimo!!!
A grand colourful flower experience.
Very colouful when we visited. Some of the tulips had finished but there were plenty others and different flowers/plants in bloom. It's a bi place, we were dropped off for three hours as part of a group tour and we didn't manage to see all the inside exhibits. We covered most of the outside ones flower displays but not all the paths through the wooded areas etc. There are plenty of food outlets.
Wow-Wow-Wow
Wow-Wow-Wow what a site so many flowers, laid out in such away that it made just about every vista exciting. Not just tulips but many more varieties of flowers too and sculptures. We believe it has good places to eat and drink too but actually came to see the gardens so didn’t stop for coffee etc used our time to walk round. Amazing place for gardeners to visit, down side, a lot of people !! but still worthwhile.
Keukenhof Entry Ticket
This was my first visit to the Keukenhof Garden in the Netherlands. There were so many tulips in the garden, but we arrived too late to see the tulip farm because it had already been trimmed owing to the tulips dying. April is the greatest month to visit Keukenhof.
A True Bucket List Experience!
You cannot imagine what it looks like when 7 million bulbs are planted in one place. The Springs Tulips in Holland are not to be missed.
Keukenhof
This is an experience everyone should have. These gardens are just incredible. The care and cleanliness are what make it so special. It is open for a limited time each spring so plan your visit accordingly. We caught the Keukenhof bus from the Leiden train station-we were staying in Leiden-and were taken to the entrance. It got crowded as the day went on but was not a problem. The food served was fine….nothing special but very adequate. We did not rent bikes as we had heard they were not well maintained. We had plenty of time to see everything going at 10 in the morning. We left and walked over to Lisse for a late lunch and walked back in time to catch our bus to Leiden. Cannot say enough good things about the love and care to make these gardens so enjoyable…..GO! Wish I could have bought bulbs to take home but could not get them through customs!

If you love tulips, prepare your eyes and heart for a festival of color and shape!!!
Part of our Smithsonian boat tour, the stop at the tulip gardens was a highlight of the three week trip. If you love them, this is a mecca for tulips. The beauty of this place sucks the air from your lungs. We had perfect weather and the early morning sunlgiuht made for spectacular pictures.
Unforgettable experience!
Keukenhof is an absolute must for all flower/nature lovers, and just for anyone wanting to find peace and relaxation from a busy life. Keukenhof feels like a dream... on a lovely sunny day, with a slight breeze in your hair... smell of tulips, daffodils and other spring flowers charming you as you discover the paths of this dreamy park... We had spent 3 hours walking around, having lunch and exploring the park. The place is huge! And filled with hundreds of kinds of flowers, predominantly tulips. You'll see tulips in all shapes and forms, unbelievable colors and beauty that can't be seen elsewhere! It's truly a mesmerizing experience!! The park is serene and easy to navigate, with plenty of pathways, restrooms, restaurants and shops. You'll be given a paper map at the entrance to navigate your way. There's also a lake in the middle of the park and it's possible to book a boat tour (in advance) that takes you around the nearby tulip fields (worth only if you come in the mid season as the farmers cut off tulip bulbs later in the season so you'll be riding next to empty fields). Highly recommend visiting - make sure to book your tickets in advance as it gets sold out quickly and the season is only open from March till beginning of May!
Beautiful place for a walk - when not crowded
The gardens are large and beautiful and well worth a visit. Tons of flowers, beautiful walking paths, lakes, trees and many other exhibits. However, as with any beautiful popular place, it can get ruined by its success. We went in only the modertaely busy season and we went in the morning speciifcally to avoid the crowds. We could feel the density of people increase and it became less pleasant as it filled up. The shear number of people is not the worst part, it is the inevitable bad behaviors of people too self-absorbed to be considerate to others that is the most frustrating. Therefore, go as early as possible and on the day least likely to be busy.
Beautiful park, visit about a week late.
Visited Keukenhof after Viking Rhine river cruise on 5/9. I'dsay we were about a week late in terms of tulip blooming, but still beautiful and incredibly maintained. Canal boat cruise would have been a waste of time since growing fields already cultivated. Tons of people and busses, but park is so large that crowding can be minimized by getting away from the main entrance. Well worth the experience, but I would recommend visiting on your own or with a private guide. We took the bus tour from Amsterdam, which only provides transportation to and from and entrance ticket. Main problem is that this tour is out and back on same bus, with 4 hours to visit the park. 2 hours is plenty, so a lot of just killing time waiting until departure time.
Amazing gardens - at every turn colors and smells ( take a tablet if you have allergies 🤣) whisper boat was ok
Just in time - as it closed a week or so later .. visited may 1. Garden was fantastic - crowded as anything but wow what a garden … at every turn. Arrived on crowded bus from Europaplein and stood all the way ! Gardens was fast and quick to enter … walked quickly to whisper boat and had actually an hour on the boat but kinda wished it had been the half hour it was supposed to be as most tulips had been harvested and color was going fast and the second half hour saw next to nothing. Gardens … just wow … whisper boat earlier at the end of April would have been great
The reason we went to The Netherlands in April
My wife picked to dates of our trip to see the tulips in peak bloom, and this was the highlight! Probably the most beautiful place we have ever seen, it’s almost overwhelming. Our tickets were for the earliest time at opening, which got us ahead of the peak crowds of the busses. Amazing!
Keukenof is a must see when in the Amsterdam area.
Keukenof is terrific and a must see when in the Amsterdam area. We went in April to see the tulips so we expected the place to be crowed which is was but not terrible. The weather was kind of rainy the day we went but we made the best of it. Tulips everywhere. All kinds, all colors. We had a terrific time.
The blooms, the crowds
Magnificently conceived gardens showing off the annual obsession, tulips. We caught the gardens on the last weekend of the season, and there were more than enough tulips in bloom, although some were in decline. The bordering tulip fields were empty. The difficulty of this place is that one wonders if the hordes of tourists are her to actually look at the flowers or just to take their selfies with the flowers. Pedestrian traffic is impossible with all the barely mindful selfie photographers jamming the paths.
Exceeded Expectations
If I had known how wonderful my visit would be, I would have booked two days. With all the instagram photos I was ready to be disappointed, but instead my expectations were FAR exceeded. We arrived at approximately 8:15 and had the place to ourselves until about 10. After 10 it was very crowded but you could still enjoy the flowers even with the various photo shoots going on. We stayed until about 5 and could have stayed longer. We took the whisper boat ride which was fun, mostly due to the driver providing additional commentary. We booked the bus ticket from the Amsterdam RAI station (very easy to reach by metro) and hopped on after waiting in a very organized line. The bus back was a little more chaotic and they couldn't tell us when the next bus would be (it was only a 5 minute wait). This seems like it could be easily rectified. Even with the crowds - the bathrooms stayed clean with constant attention from the facilities staff. The lines for lunch were also short and there were a lot of great options (salad, sandwich, hot meals, cake, coffee, beer, wine) and seating available. We did have a good day weather-wise, so sat outside.
Simply amazing - a must do visit
This has got to be one the most amazing visits we have done. To see 7 million bulbs all absolutely perfect with no bugs affecting the plants is a sight to behold. The park is only open for 8 weeks each year and it attract nearing one million visitors per season. This has been on our bucket list for many years and we finally made it - stunning. Although there were lots of visitors, you didn't really feel too crowded. An amazing visit and is highly recommended
Sehr schön, aber freundlichere Reinigungkräfte wären wünschenswert
Allgemein sehr schöne Sehenswürdigkeit, für Familien sehr gut geeignet durch Speise- und Spielmöglichkeiten. Jedoch ist das Reinigungspersonal auf den WC's sehr sehr unfreundlich und dreist. Zzmindest auf einer WC Anlage. Sie schreiben dir vor, wann und wohin du gehen darfst, verstehen kein Deutsch, zumindest sprechen sie englisch, aber befehlen in einem Ton, der mehr als unverschämt ist. Wenn man auf die Toilette geht und sie es nicht wollten, wird man dreist und laut angemeckert. Geht garnicht! Wo lassen sich Gäste so behandeln wenn sie nur zur Toilette wollen? Sowas hat man noch nicht erlebt. Wenn man die Frau besänftigen möchte, wird sie noch lauter und diskutiert auf englisch, wozu die Gäste dort gar kein Elan haben.
Stunning place to visit
We went to Keukenhof during a two day trip to Amsterdam and it was definitely worth the visit. It’s huge and definitely worth the entry price. There are two huge car parks at either end of the attraction and the smell of pollen hits you as you get out of the car. It was quite busy considering we went midweek but as it’s only open for a few weeks, this wasn’t surprising. The tulips are absolutely stunning and even the kids appreciated the hard work that has gone into growing them all. The shop was a bit pricey but we managed to bring some tulip bulbs home for family members. It’s definitely worth a trip, especially if you’re in the area.
Es un tour más general
El tour está muy bien, en cambio si ya has hecho un freetour por la ciudad recomiendo el crucero primero, te da una vista más general, mi amiga y yo al haber hecho antes el freetour volvimos a ver sitios en los que ya habíamos estado.
Très belle découverte en péniche
Croisière avec le groupe lovers Sympathique croisière traduit en plusieurs langue 1h pour vous faire un tour des canaux avec visite guidée et indication sur les différents quartiers/monuments / place/ marché /histoire / musée de la ville etc Très bien pour découvrir une 1er fois en famille en amies en couple cette croisière et très bien adapter
Amsterdam City River Cruise
The canal cruise was perfect, the captin come guide gave us headphones to listen in our own language. The riverboat was clean and tidy, easy to walk on and off, it was a nice day and we got some beautiful pictures!! A great end to a fantastic tourist holiday!!
Early evening cruise
We did the early evening cruise to see the lights of the city. Easy to get tickets by turning up and allocated the next cruise. There is an audio link that you can use, but we decided to just sit outside and watch the views. An hour cruise which was interesting and pretty.
Great information finding cruise
We had an hour cruise around the canals in Amsterdam and learnt a lot whilst doing it. We really enjoyed every second. My five year old didn’t want to get off. The captain was also very knowledgeable.
Très bien
Petite balade bien sympathique, est l’audio était très bien fait rien à redire. Le petit bar pour attendre est très sympa aussi avant d’accéder au bateau.
A Must Try
This is a must do on your list of things to do while visiting Amsterdam. It takes you through areas that you may not be able to walk to. The captain points out things of interest and tells the story behind it.
Informativ und schön
Wir hatten einen super symphatischen Bootsführer der viele Nebeninfos gab. War schön und informativ. 1 Stunde hat gut gereicht und empfehlenswert. Gute Karte erhalten für den Treffpunkt und pünktlich, sowie sauber.
Un paseo agradable en barco
Muy puntuales, un paseo tranquilo, recomiendo que cuando lo cojan miren bien la metereología, pues así podrán disfrutar mejor de las vistas.
DA PROVARE
Giro dei canali in barca assolutamente da consigliare. Audioguida in italiano e Simon simpaticissimo conducente che comunque dava ulteriori informazioni in inglese. La durata è di un'ora ma ci è dispiaciuto scendere!!
Tolle Tour
Die Stunde waren zwar nur ca. 50 Minuten, aber die Tour war wunderschön. Unbedingt abends machen, die Atmosphäre ist unbeschreiblich!
👍👍👍
Sehr nette Bootstour über die Kanäle von Amsterdam! Man bekommt viele interessante Informationen über die Stadt und deren Geschichte erzählt.
intéressant
La promenade sur les canaux dure une heure. Les audio guides permettent de suivre les commentaires dans différentes langues. Le long de cette promenade fluviale, nous découvrons l'histoire de la ville et des monuments "célèbres". Par contre, le confort est rudimentaire.
Para escalas cortas de vuelo
Las vistas son preciosas, aunque desde posición incómoda porque el barco estaba muy lleno. El capitán muy simpático e hizo agradable el viaje.
Crociera easy
Crociera molto carina con guida in tutte le lingue. Partenza vicino ala stazione centrale. Durata circa un ora. Visita dei canali principali di Amsterdam. Da provare
A fab way to see Amsterdam
We had a really lovely time on the one-hour canal cruise. Our captain was very lovely and cracked a good few jokes throughout the tour. The GPS guided tour via the headphones was a fab idea and there were so many language options available which was a really pleasant surprise. We learned so much about the history of the city and the tour even helped us to find places to visit again in further detail after the tour. The price was extremely reasonable considering the excellent experience we got, and our boat even left a little early which was nice. All in all, we would definitely recommend it!
The captian made the experience
We really enjoyed it. We show I I amsterdam cards at the ticket office ans were on a boat and on our way within 10 minutes. Our captain (Tony I believe was his name) was lovely ,cheerful and very knowledge of the area, he also had 2 traniees with him and they were also lovely. The facilties were clean. If I hadn't have had the I amsterdam card I would have still paid what the price was (which I think is reasonable).
Well worth the experience
1st time in Amsterdam and loved it Booked on the Lovers Canal cruise early in the morning to get a feel for the city and to get our bearings The tour showed the highlights of the city and the comentry was good
Cruising backward :(
sitting backward is really annoying... Except that I think it is very nice and the captain was a nice guy, he was really funny, making jokes.
Go with Lovers
Booked through Get Your Guide literally 20 mins before boarding. They let us join a boat that was boarding as soon as we got there, which was great, no standing around as they weren’t so busy. We took a daytime trip and glad we did. Maybe evening cruises would be better in warmer months with open boats. The boat was modern, clean and warm and no condensation at all during any part of our cruise. The headphones were included and the audio commentary was interesting. The captain also added bits and pieces of extra info which was appreciated. It was a great introduction to the canals of Amsterdam as we decided to do this trip literally an hour after arriving in Amsterdam. It helped us with our bearings and with general historical info about the city. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that we seemed to stay on one canal, no museums seen, no Anne Frank house, nothing like that, which was a shame as lots of tourists probably visit these places afterwards. Maybe the canal boat starting from the museums area take that route? We took the one from the station. There are lots of canal boat companies, but we were more than happy with Lovers as their boats appear a lot more modern than many others we saw. I would definitely recommend the cruise and my teenage daughter said it was one of the nicest things we did when in Amsterdam.
Great couples tour
A amazing tour with some great canal boat skills performed and a great host. This tour is very much for couples and being alone I felt a little out of place.
A Great Way To See The City
Done the open boat tour during the summer. A great way to see the city and the audio guide gave plenty of information along the way. Extremely relaxing to the point I almost fell asleep half way around. Would definitely do the tour again if I’m back in Amsterdam
Quick visit to see Amsterdam
Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Although it rained, I still enjoyed the tour. The only complaint was the audio was difficult to hear at times.
Relaxing hour on the canals
Nice relaxing hour around the canals. Duco (sorry if I have not got the name correct) was informative with history and fun facts. Would recommend.
Good cruise
It was educational, slowed down at the right places. The pilot was polite and explained well- was fun and energetic.
