Home to Van Gogh, Rembrandt, the Dutch East India Company with its rich trading and maritime history, seafaring villages and towns, tulips, windmills, bicycles, and one of Europe’s most vibrant cities, Amsterdam.The perfect blend of old world charm and cosmopolitan flairAmsterdam, a patchwork quilt of tree-shaded canals lined with townhouses and crowned with fancy gables, blends the best of the past with the present. While here, you’ll see the legacy “The Golden Age” left as you visit the renowned Rijksmuseum, with the largest collection of Dutch and Flemish art and artifacts in the world including Rembrandt’s 1642 masterpiece, The Night Watch. From Amsterdam, you will step further back into the past to discover how this region is forever tied to the sea. Visit Volendam, a small fishing village where it’s not unusual to see locals wearing traditional Dutch clogs and bonnets from an earlier time. You’ll explore Enkhuizen, a rich seafaring city which provides its own glimpse into the past with the famous Zuider Zee Open Air Museum showcasing Dutch life of days gone by. Cruise through the canal village of Giethoorn in an open canal boat, and visit one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, Nijmegen. Of course, no visit to this region would be complete without experiencing two of the iconic emblems of the Netherlands, the windmills of Kinderdijk, 19 well-preserved windmills, and the beautiful Keukenhof Gardens, only open nine weeks out of the year, showcasing more than seven million flowers, with one million tulips alone, that will leave your senses mesmerized.
