VERY NICE COVERAGE THIS IS THE NATURE GIFT MAN CAN NEVER CREATE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL GLOBE

@jackvandersluis1723 2 года назад

This was build for the Dutch but turned into a place that loved the tourists but absolutely not a tourist trap more a place loved by tourists! Great vlog!

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

Bedankt! Glad you liked it. 😊 I do count on you for constructive criticism, so I always appreciate your comments.

@Saucyakld 2 года назад

Loved Keukenhof, best place ever, beautiful! Not only the tulips but the narcissus are gorgeous too and the other various flowers!

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

So many amazing flowers! The orchids were unbelievable, too.

@crystalhospe5658 2 года назад

I was on the same bus as you from Rai! I'm from Trinidad and Tobago and I agree Keukenhof is absolutely worth visiting and spending an entire day there. Obviously the flowers are breathtaking and the smell of the flowers while walking through the garden is absolutely incredible. I took the boat ride as well, but for me I don't think was worth it, the fields weren't very impactful from the view from the very low boats. I got a better view of the surrounding fields from the top of the windmill next to the boat loading spot, and that's free.

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

How crazy we were on the same bus! Thanks for the extra insight. I would think the boat is too low and the line was very long (though you can book ahead of time). I'm glad the view from the windmill was nice!

Haven't watched one of your vids in a minute but I must say your presenting skills are so impressive! Keukenhof just isn't my thing but honestly they are lucky to have you making quality videos like this, don't think I saw half of this on my visit.

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

Thank you! We hadn't been in a long time and I realized I should have more helpful videos from spring time around here, so Keukenhof was an easy thing to do. The one thing I forgot to mention that you might find helpful (or if you know any locals going) is that we can use our OV Chipkaart for the bus. Seems obvious, but I wasn't even sure until we got there!

@bramharms72 2 года назад

I concur, us dutchies don't see it as a tourist trap either, just a fun day out. We DO use it as a metaphor for "overcrowding" but as you can see in the video that's certainly not always the case, just at the height of the tourist season.

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

There were so many tour buses there! But as with most things, move farther from the front and things get much better with fewer crowds. It is definitely a lovely day out! I really appreciate the variety of the gardens.

@Taru_FinnDutch Год назад

I think this is a place to visit once but that’s it😅 I rather enjoy the real tulip fields around Lisse, free to see and stunning to see😍🌺🌸

@aWanderlustForLife Год назад

Yes, the tulip fields in Lisse, Flevoland, and even north of Amsterdam are stunning! I did a video on visiting a few around Lisse. I don't go to Keukenhof every year but every 5 or so. It's always beautiful and changes each year and also depending on when you go since it's designed to bloom the entire time it's open.

@ptm8375 5 месяцев назад

In 1949, a group of leading flower bulb growers and exporters came up with the plan to create an exhibition of spring-flowering flower bulbs on the estate. The Keukenhof spring park was a fact. The park opened for the first time in 1950. It was an immediate success: 236,000 visitors. It was originally made for Dutch visitors.

Great video. I just went on Friday. My tip is allow loads of time I was restricted as was going on to Liege had only three hours and was busy. Also take your own food if you are on a budget or have special allergies. I bought a pasta for about 8 Euros. Great experience and the bus combi ticket was great. Locker for my suitcase was free.

@Sweet_hxneyy 5 месяцев назад

If i have the amsterdam and region travel ticket, will i still need a combi ticket to take the bus to keukenhof or can i just get an entrance ticket?

@bertkassing8541 2 года назад

Well, I have worked in the Bollenstreek for years and have lived in Hoofddorp (the northernmost tip of the Bollenstreek) for some years now, but the Keukenhof is really something for tourists as far as I'm concerned. Nothing wrong with that, but still..... Look at the beautiful bulb fields next to the Intratuin shop in Cruquius. Then you don't have to go to Keukenhof anymore :-) By the way, I've been there, but it's not my thing.

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

We hope to do some tulip/flower fields soon! We were supposed to go today but I hurt myself and couldn't, so hopefully next weekend 😊 If you have any other tips, I love them.

@bertkassing8541 2 года назад

@@aWanderlustForLife Oooh, I hope you didn't hurt yourself too much. Anyway, get well. The bulb fields will be in bloom for a few more weeks. So plenty of time for a visit.

@aWanderlustForLife 2 года назад

I disagree. Places like this need fees for the upkeep.

@bertkassing8541 2 года назад

I don't quite agree with you. I think Keukenhof and many other "tourist" attractions fill a need. The Keukenhof is quite beautiful and you get to see everything the bulb fields have to offer. Nothing wrong with it. Okay, I'm not a fan of it either, but still...... it's pretty beautiful. And I think it's normal that you have to pay for some attractions. Maintenance and operation simply costs a lot of money.

@justasking9670 Год назад

Just been there it’s clearly a rip off. 85€ for 2 ppl bus included. Still a rip off. Very beautiful but definitely not worth the price.

@aWanderlustForLife Год назад

The official bus (from their website) is €72 for 2 people from the RAI. Even less from Schiphol, but ultimately each person has to determine what it's worth for them.
