Holland Tours
When choosing a place to spend your vacation, pay attention to the Kingdom of the Netherlands or, as it is commonly called, Holland. In this country, any traveler can find something to his liking and rest to his heart, because its cultural and historical heritage is extremely significant, and it can easily share its natural beauty even with its neighbors. When planning tours to Holland, you should pay attention not only to Amsterdam, but also to other cities where there are many equally valuable attractions and interesting opportunities for recreation.
The best time in the land of tulips
For those who are not afraid of the changeable weather on the North Sea coast, the best season for a tour to Holland may be winter or autumn.At this time there are not so many tourists here, hotel prices are somewhat reduced, and finding parking for a rented car during a trip around the country much easier.
Spring is the best season for those who would like to take part in the flower festival in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. In April, millions of tulips bloom here, in honor of which a flower carnival is even organized. In April and May, tours to Holland are an opportunity to ride a bike along colorful flower fields that resemble a bright patchwork quilt and enjoy the fragrant lawns in gardens and parks.
Winter time for a tour to Holland is fancy Christmas trees, cities with thousands of sparkling garlands, New Year's shopping and endless stands of mulled wine, hot chocolate and handmade souvenirs.
Vivat, king, vivat!
For those who want to feel like a real resident of the kingdom, travel agencies offer tours to Holland on King's Day. Every year on April 30, the streets of villages and cities turn into orange rivers, in which a festive crowd of people seethes. Folk festivities continue from morning to evening, and the main heroes of the holiday, in addition to members of the royal family, are fresh beer and, of course, tulips!
Flag Day
Another reason to book a tour to Holland is to participate in the Herring Festival. Every year, on the first Saturday of June, a new catch of young herring is delivered to the port of Schefeningen, the water area and nearby buildings are decorated with colorful flags, and all participants and guests of the event taste fresh and fragrant fish to their heart's content. The holiday has old and interesting traditions. The apotheosis of the event is the auction, in which anyone can participate - both a local resident and a participant in the June tour to Holland.
