Madurodam is a unique way to explore the Netherlands. In this miniature world you’ll discover famous Dutch landmarks, fascinating stories and interactive experiences all in one place. Watch container ships move through the busy port of Rotterdam, spot the famous Cube Houses on the Blaak and wander past canals of Amsterdam lined with hundreds (and hundreds) of bicycles.

 

Kinderdijk

Come on a boat trip and sail past the iconic windmills and sample a delicious lunch while the countryside slides by. Culture, relaxation, and delicious food in a single experience. Next, you can visit one of the museum mills.

 

You are invited aboard our tour boat to sail along the banks of the watercourses for an hour until we reach Nederwaard Museum Mill. While on board, you will be served a luxury bread roll, fruit juice, a sweet treat, and fruit. Once we reach the windmill, you can discover how the people here lived in the nineteenth century and you will also meet the miller. After the visit, you can choose to walk back, or for an extra charge, take the boat back again.

 

Delft

Delft is a popular tourist destination in the Netherlands, famous for its historical connections with the reigning House of Orange-Nassau, for its blue pottery, for being home to the painter Jan Vermeer, and for hosting  Delft University of Technology (TU Delft). Historically, Delft played a highly influential role in the Dutch Golden Age
