When arriving

Although the Netherlands is a beautiful country, you should keep the weather in mind when packing. It can be windy and rainy throughout the year. If you prefer to visit during warmer weather, book your trip in May or September. Summers are nice as well, although everyone seems to agree on this and major attractions can get crowded. The spring and early fall might be some of the best times to enjoy all that the Netherlands has to offer.

Unique attractions await in the Netherlands, especially during spring. One is the Keukenhof Gardens, home to over 7 million spring flowers, including tulips, lilies, and orchids. These gardens are only open between March and May. Another must-see is the windmills in Kinderdijk, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Coaches in the Netherlands take you to the country's many charming sites.
