3.Brussels: Holland Keukenhof & Kinderdijk Guided Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 15 reviews · from $192

Travel from Brussels to Kinderdijk and Keukenhof on a 12-hour English or Spanish guided tour. Visit two working windmills, cruise the canals, and explore Keukenhof after a 30-minute introduction. The day includes long coach rides, so it suits you best if you value convenience and want both Dutch highlights in one outing.

“Thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Kekeunhof and Zaanse Schans. The gardens were in full bloom and it was a day with brilliant sunshine. Zaanse Schans was nice, touristic yes but serves the purpose of giving an introduction to windmills and cheese making. Our guide David was superb, very energetic and passionate about his work. Must add that the description by him was in two languages English and Spanish, probably there is a significant proportion of Spanish speakers who take the tour. The tour does involve significant travel time due to the distances involved, six hours plus in a twelve hour schedule.Read more”
