Well, we took That Dam Guide’s tulips tour and it was pitch perfect: Small-group tour, just eight of us in the van, and our guide Rory was charming and well-informed. We got three hours in Keukenhof gardens themselves, which felt like the perfect amount of time. After that we went for a pancake lunch in a completely charming and “off the beaten track” pancake house, visited a windmill in Haarlem and wound down with a nice cup of coffee in Haarlem’s central square.
My wife and I really love the sociable nature of the tour, it was paced to perfection and we just really enjoyed ourselves.
