Traditionally, tourists flock to see the tulip fields south of Amsterdam, but those north of the capital are just as pretty and colourful. Are you planning a tranquil cycling holiday in the tulip season, between the beginning of April and mid-May? This journey leads you right through the heart of the northern bulb flower district with the Hortus Bulborum as an added bonus. Furthermore, the holiday showcases the fantastic natural beauty of the North Sea coast: Discover the highest and widest coastal dunes in the country, boasting a range of habitats from wind-blown sand ridges to open dune grasslands; and from scrub to woods.
In the other months the 7 day (Top of North Holland) and 8 day (North Holland Tour) trip is a good alternative.
