Tulip Time in Holland

A dazzling array of colorful tulips bursting into bloom makes spring in Europe a feast for the eyes, and there is no better way to experience this than on a cruise along Dutch and Belgian waterways. Alongside traditional European highlights such as museums, galleries and historic landmarks, these cruises provide breathtaking vistas of field after field of vibrant tulips. Shore excursions might include a picturesque canal cruise in Amsterdam, a trip to the whimsical windmills of Kinderdijk or a visit to the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens -- 70 acres of parkland filled with lakes, sculptures and greenhouses. Tulip cruises depart in March, April and May, when flowering tulips are at their peak.

The travel details are handled for you on a river cruise, as accommodations, meals and guided sightseeing are bundled into one low price. You can sit back and enjoy the sights and sounds of spring.
