Travel Tips for Visiting Holland During the Tulip Season in April

Visiting Holland in April to experience the stunning tulips is a truly unforgettable experience, but to make the most of your trip, it's important to be prepared. Here are some travel tips to ensure you have a smooth and enjoyable time:

Expect Large Crowds at Keukenhof Gardens

Keukenhof Gardens, the largest flower garden in the world, is the highlight of the tulip season. While it’s a must-visit destination, it can get quite crowded, especially on weekends. To avoid the busiest times:

Arrive early in the morning or later in the afternoon to beat the crowds.
Visit on weekdays, when it’s generally less crowded than on weekends.
Plan to spend around 2–4 hours exploring the gardens, depending on your interest.

Take a Bike Ride Through the Tulip Fields

One of the best ways to explore the tulip fields is by bike, as the flat terrain makes it easy and enjoyable. Renting a bike for a leisurely ride through the fields will allow you to experience the beauty of the flowers up close and capture stunning photos without the distractions of a busier tour. Many towns, like Lisse and Noord-Holland, offer bike rentals and routes that pass by the tulip fields.

Visit Smaller, Lesser-Known Tulip Fields

While Keukenhof Gardens is spectacular, the tulip fields in Noord-Holland, Friesland, and around Alkmaar offer a more peaceful experience with fewer tourists. If you’re looking for a quieter, more intimate experience, venture beyond the main tourist hubs to these off-the-beaten-path locations.

Explore Dutch Villages for an Authentic Experience

Holland’s tulip fields are often surrounded by quaint villages that are worth exploring. Marken, Zaanse Schans, and Edam are picturesque towns with traditional wooden houses, charming canals, and rich history. A visit to these villages will give you a taste of Dutch life outside of the bustling cities.

Understand Tulip Varieties and Their Blooming Periods

Not all tulips bloom at the same time. The first tulips start blooming in late March, but the best time to visit for peak blooms is typically mid-April to early May. Be sure to check the bloom forecasts and plan your visit around the optimal bloom times for the best flower displays.

Try Local Dutch Delicacies

No trip to the Netherlands is complete without sampling some of the country’s culinary delights. Be sure to try:

Dutch cheese, especially Edam and Gouda.
Stroopwafels, a caramel-filled waffle cookie, often sold fresh from vendors in markets.
Haring, raw herring served with onions and pickles, typically eaten by holding the fish by the tail and taking a bite.
Poffertjes, mini fluffy pancakes served with powdered sugar.

Be Respectful of the Tulip Fields

While it’s tempting to get close to the flowers for that perfect shot, be mindful not to walk on or damage the tulip fields. Stick to the designated walking paths and avoid stepping on the flowers to preserve their beauty for everyone to enjoy.

Photography Tips

Holland’s tulips provide endless photo opportunities, but to get the best shots:

Early morning or late afternoon light is ideal for soft, warm tones.
Take wide shots to capture the rows of flowers, and close-ups for vivid details.
Be mindful of other visitors when taking pictures—patience and respect for others are key.

Stay Hydrated and Rested

April weather can vary, so be sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated, especially if you’re biking or walking a lot. Also, take time to rest and enjoy the peaceful beauty of the gardens and fields, so you don’t burn out during your trip.

If you cancel your trip before the 90-day deadline, 25% of the total trip price is non-refundable, as are any airfare, train tickets, or ferry tickets purchased as part of your trip package due to the strict cancellation policy by foreign carriers (if applicable).

Amy at Walker Wellness Retreats helped us create a 2-week dream itinerary through Egypt - from Cairo to Luxor - with a final stop in Petra (Jordan). The trip was unforgettable, and the partnership with the exceptional local team (Your Egypt Tours) was seamless. Responsive and flexible, we appreciated all the help in making the trip happen.

I went on the most fantastic hiking and yoga retreat in Sedona with Brian and Amy. Looking at the photos taken with our group, the trails hiked, the yoga sessions, and especially the food eaten, it's challenging to put in words a review that will ensure anyone considering going on a trip with Walker Wellness will have a magnificent time. I guess two words, no worries! No worries about anything! How do you get there? What do you wear? What will you be eating? What are the details of what you'll be doing? Do they give you enough time to hike if you are a slow hiker? Brian and Amy have thought of EVERYTHING. I did not need or want anything. Right down to the particular cream in my daily coffee. (Thank you, Amy!) And if, along the way, you would like something, a little Starbucks coffee stop and a little shopping, all good. Brian and Amy are there for you. This is not a must-stick to the schedule type of people. They are there to make sure you have a wonderful time in Sedona. Two words: NO WORRIES!

The trip to Senalala Safari Lodge was a daily wonder and outstanding experience. Every bush drive brought unexpected wildlife experiences. Lisa, our guide, had phenomenal knowledge of all the sites, sounds and tracks that we saw each day. Our accommodations were very comfortable, well maintained and staff members made all welcome. I especially like eating the delicious meals family style and getting to know other explorers. I will return!🦒🐘🐃🦓🦏

I recently returned from a Yoga/trekking retreat to Peru (October '24) with Cassie Paul. It was just wonderful. Cassie led this group with grace. I really appreciated and noticed how she frequently checked in with everyone to see how we all were doing and encouraged us daily. I would 100% recommend attending any retreat being led by Cassie. I hope to do this again someday.

By Ruth S for Peru Hiking & Yoga (Cassie Paul) on Nov 10, 2024

Thank you for organizing our dream private tour to Madagascar! We knew we wanted to visit such a magical country but had no idea about logistics and how to get from one place to another. By working with Walker Wellness Retreats, we were able to see everything we wanted to see during the dates we needed. Everything was easy and made planning so much more simple (as it should be for vacation!).
