Stunning experience of floral artistry and craftsmanship. I visited the Kukenhof with my mother for her 80th birthday celebration and what a lovely way to spend a day. Sunshine, flowers and a lovely atmosphere among fellow tourists. The exceptional array of Tulips was a sight to be seen, vivid colours, pattern and smells. Would love to visit again someday!
Stunning to see the tulips. So many colours and types. Awesome to finally get there.
Lovely tulip tour company with an amazing filling lunch included. Do wait to book via the Amsterdam city book and not directly as you can save more than 50% off. But our tour guide was lovely and had lots of information. We went to multiple tulip fields that were private to the tour company so we were the only ones there.
Some of the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen. The tour was long enough to see everything, and yet not feel too extensive. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Great way to see two iconic sights in one day. Our guide, Kenny, was very friendly and knowledgable. We had ample time to explore both sights and highly recommend taking this tour if you have limited time during tulip season and hopefully Kenny will be your guide.
Kenny was awesome! Easy instructions to follow throughout the day as we went on our excursions, loved to learn all the history and he was able to answer all of our questions. Would recommend to friends and family.
Experience was amazing in beauty and color! The crowd was huge but manageable. Purchased tulip bulbs on site from the small building near Orchid House - but once home found out deer LOVE tulips - I am trying to cancel the order but it is not easy to do. The info is not accurate on the Invoice to contact, at least no response to two request to cancel. Contacted the garden chat - they can't handle but at least are directing my request to the appropriate people. Not sure what will happen - either it gets canceled or I will be getting bulbs in October! I guess nice gifts for friends. Never-the-less, the garden is worth your effort to go!
Very enjoyable experience, the time in the gardens was just perfect, not too long, not too short. Good time to wander around and have lunch there. The visit to the windmills was also very unique experience with plenty of time to enjoy the different shops, learn the history of the place and take some wonderful photos!
Great trip. Wonderful sites. Tour guide David was knowledgeable Gardens were visually pleasing and there was plenty of time to see
This was an A+ tour, not only for the sights and experiences, but mostly because of our tour guide David. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating, especially since most of his group were older people. He was able to make some adjustments that enhanced our experience. We highly recommend this tour and we highly commend David!
