Floriade and Highlights of Holland - by Eurostar

Summary

For a flavour of traditional Dutch villages and way of life combined with the contemporary style of Floriade, this holiday ticks all the boxes.

Following our full day at the Expo in Almere, we have an optional excursion to the scenic area north of Amsterdam that lies beside what was formerly the Zuiderzee (Southern sea) and is now the freshwater lake known as the IJsselmeer. Here we will visit Volendam, a picturesque fishing port of colourful houses and narrow alleyways, where traditional costumes can still be glimpsed. We then cross the causeway to what was formerly the island of Marken, where we find another old-fashioned and quaint fishing town with ancient wooden buildings. On our final day we transfer to Amsterdam where the morning and early afternoon is free to enjoy the manifold delights of this bustling city with its grand canal-side houses combined with a modern, cosmopolitan atmosphere.

We travel in relaxed style by Eurostar to Rotterdam, returning from Amsterdam.
