Experience Amsterdam
The magical floating city of Amsterdam is a perfect gateway into the picturesque Netherlands. See the idyllic canals running through the city’s historic center, whether by day on a chartered boat, or by night, when many of the bridges that span its canals are lit with tiny sparking lights. Amsterdam has a wealth of monuments, including ancient churches, bridges, gables, and plazas, giving history and architecture buffs plenty to feast their eyes on. Art enthusiasts will be in paradise at the Van Gogh museum, home to the work of the famed Dutch artist. When it’s time to leave the city, do as the locals do and rent a bike to tour the Dutch countryside, stopping at some of the many historic flower estates, windmills, and charming fishing villages. Perhaps the Netherlands’ greatest asset is its people – take a seat in a local café to enjoy fine Belgian beer or gin, and you’ll soon find yourself chatting with the friendly locals. A trip to this historic and surprising city is one you’ll never forget!
