Full day customized tour to the Floriade and more! Private transportation up to 7 and tickets included
April 14-Oct 9 2022, the Floriade Expo 2022 will be held in Almere. Once every 10 years Floriade is the park to enjoy the scent and color of flowers, plants, trees, fruit and veggies, with breathtaking gardens, international presentations, a huge greenhouse complex, a spectacular cable car ride over the park, a floating pavilion, surprising tasting sessions, workshops and a vibrant cultural program for young and old. The 2022 theme is Growing Green Cities, celebrating creative, green, sustainable solutions for a better, greener world.
I'm a former Floriade 2012 guide, Sonsbeek Park guide (2001, 2008, 2016) and yearly Keukenhof guide since 2013. We can (easily!) stay all day at the Floriade or combine it with a tour to the Keukenhof gardens (in spring), Zaanse Schans windmills, picturesque fishermen villages,
Muiderslot Castle or another location on request. It's a 30-45 minutes drive from Amsterdam.
Vip minivan included up to 7 people plus tickets. Need changes? Contact me for a custom made tour!
