Quotes From the Field
“You won’t believe Leo van den Ende’s tulip painting in Voorhout – it’s the largest panorama painting in the world at 63 meters long and four meters high. It took him 6,000 hours to complete, and includes over a million tulips!”
Tom Litjens, Guide
Holland Cycling Tours
The best of the Netherlands in five days
With its flat terrain, stunning springtime flowers, beautiful coastline and countless fietspad (bike paths), there’s no better way to explore Holland than by bicycle.
- Spend an afternoon exploring Amsterdam before sitting down to an elaborate Indonesian rijsttafel, or “rice table” welcome banquet
- Pedal a watery wonderland of canals, lakes and windmills in Lisse before ferrying to the quaint island village of Kaag
- Ride through Rembrandt’s birthplace of Leiden, a 17th century town rich in character and home to the Netherlands’ oldest university
- Dig your toes into soft sand on the beach in Scheveningen
- Marvel at the artwork of the Dutch Masters, including Mesdag’s 19th century 400-foot-long Scheveningen cityscape and Leo van den Ende’s panorama featuring over a million tulips
- In the Springtime, pedal alongside meadows blanketed in tulips, hyacinth and daffodils – a tapestry of coral, pink, purple and yellow as fragrant as it is colorful – and explore the magnificent gardens and flower fields of the Keukenhof
