Tulips and travel - Keukenhof farm, Netherlands



  • Stationsweg 166A, 2161 AM Lisse, Netherlands.



    A place for tulip lovers and flower enthusiasts.The picture above is not actually inside keukenhof but around lisse.I did a biking tour with my son around Lisse where keukenhof farm is located.There's bike rentals on the side of the farm,click the link below for the price and infos.

    We decided to explore Lisse first and to look for tulip fields to take some photos before going inside of keukenhof.


    The place is really beautiful and breathtaking,a lot of tulips everywhere! (Literally),made us stay longer just to look at the fields while enjoying the fresh air and beautiful weather.We went there during spring (of course! :D fyi Keukenhof is only open every spring) it was a bit windy and cold but sunny, so not that bad at all.And expect a big volume of tourists coz at the same time it's the flower festival in Lisse.




    Going to keukenhof is so easy.Just take the bus from amsterdam/Schiphol airport,just on the side of arrival area.They have direct shuttle bus going to keukenhof.It's also good for a short trip if you have a long transit time.Bus + entrance costs 19€ and you can buy it right there at the bus terminal.




    We bought the Holland pass,so we got a free ticket + roundtrip bus ticket to keukenhof.

    HOLLAND PASS is an all-in-one city pass in amsterdam.Click the link for all the information.

    If you think you will visit mostly the main attractions like madame tussauds,keukenhof,Nemo science center,canal tour etc. it's worth it to purchasr the holland pass specially if you have a kid w/ you ,it also serves as a fast track ticket to some attractions.
