About this activity

Experience the Netherlands' most iconic spring spectacle in a single day: wander the handsome canal-lined streets of historic Delft with its royal churches and artisan shops, then lose yourself in Keukenhof Gardens' 32 hectares of 7 million blooming bulbs. This 12-hour guided tour from Brussels combines Dutch cultural heritage with world-renowned horticultural displays.

This guided tour is a limited edition only! This tour has it all: the fragrances and the unforgettable colors of 7 million flower bulbs as well as the unearthly beauty of historical Delft.
After a leisurely drive through the countryside you already see vast bulb fields in full blossom as well as the typical windmills. We first guide you through Delft. You will marvel at the picturesque canals, the city hall, the Old and the New Church that also houses the underground crypt of the Dutch Royal Family. In your free time you will most certainly browse through the countless small but cozy Delft arts and crafts shops.
After lunch and on the way to the Keukenhof estate you hear about the history and importance of tulip growing. And then: for full three hours you enjoy the many gardens and beautiful pavilions which show a great collection of tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, orchids, roses, carnations, irises, lilies and other flowers.

Insider tips

  • ★Keukenhof is at its most vibrant April–May; visit early in the day to beat midday crowds in the pavilions
  • ★Delft's best light for photos is morning; the canals and facades are most picturesque before noon
  • ★Allocate budget for lunch in Delft (included in itinerary but not in tour price); local pancake houses and cafés line the main squares

Good to know

  • •Total duration 12 hours; confirm hotel pickup time and return time with operator before booking
  • •Comfortable walking shoes essential—Delft's cobbled streets and Keukenhof gardens involve sustained walking
  • •Keukenhof entry and transport from Brussels included; lunch is your own expense
  • •Spring bloom season (late March–May) is essential for full flower displays; off-season gardens are minimal
