Reviews
We booked the Zaanse Schans & Keukenhof day trip on Klook and loved the flexibility of the hop-on, hop-off setup — it let us explore at our own pace without feeling rushed. I personally enjoyed the windmills at Zaanse Schans, while my mom absolutely loved the beautiful flowers at Keukenhof Gardens. Both spots were stunning in their own way. Very convenient, well-organized, and perfect for a relaxed day trip. Highly recommended!
it was great to visit there with my parents. they loved it. the coach was clean and comfortable.
Keukenhof was a great experience.
Everything was seamless and easy to navigate. The team was helpful, the flexible return from Keukenhof made it easy to decide when to end the tour and the quality of transfer and clear instructions by the guide were incredible too.
cool place, the tulips looks unreal and there is really a lot of them there. only downside is the huge crowd. overall, a must visit :')
If you depart at 8 AM, you can spend about three hours at Zaanse Schans Windmill Village, boarding the bus at 11:30 AM. Since you'll arrive early, there won't be many people. Remember to visit the wooden shoe shop and take a picture with the wooden shoe heart display first, otherwise, you won't be able to once it gets crowded. Also, be sure to attend the cheese factory's explanation and tasting. As for the windmills, there's an extra charge, so it's optional. In the afternoon, when you visit Keukenhof to see the tulips, you can just line up for the free windmill there. However, the gardens get very crowded in the afternoon, so just focus on taking pictures of the flowers.
The arrangement for the windmills, lunch, and tulips was very reasonable. The meeting point was right across the river from Central Station, easily accessible by a free ferry. The bus was also very comfortable.
I had a great experience on this trip! Visiting the windmill village and the tulip garden was absolutely worth it. The transportation was very convenient, making it easy to enjoy everything within a day. The windmill village had a lovely atmosphere with plenty of beautiful photo spots. The tulip garden was stunning, full of vibrant colors and breathtaking views. It was a bit crowded, but still very enjoyable overall. Highly recommended!
The tour bus was comfortable (everyone has a seat) and efficient in bringing us to both Zaanse Schans and the Keukenhof Gardens. However, there was some delay due to people boarding at the wrong bus timing and a small traffic jam (probably due to peak period as we did the tour on the Easter weekend). Booking this tour made the experience more convenient as we didn’t have to worry about buying tickets to the gardens and catching the public buses.
Nice itinerary. We had fun! ☺️ You can easily find the meeting place and staff are very helpfull and nice.
