Prachtige bloemen
In april 2023 bezocht. Heel mooie bloemen, mooi op te zien en foto's te maken. Druk natuurlijk maar dat hoort erbij. Je kan er een lekker ijsje eten, enkel met de kaart te betalen.

prachtig 😍 echt mooie park 🌹
April 2024 voor 4e keer bezocht met 75 jarig bestaan. Was weer genieten van alle bloeiende bollen in volle grond en paviljoenen

Top park Keukenhof
Machtig mooi park, goede verzorging, schone toiletten, bloeiende bloemen. Goede catering. Wat wil een mens nog meer. Jammer dat het park over 2 weken alweer gaat sluiten. Maar ja de natuur is eigen baas

Prachtig
Vandaag een paar uur naar de Keukenhof geweest. Vroeg op gestaan maar dat loont wel: Wij konden vanaf 8.00 uur rustig rondkijken en genieten. Maar rond een uur of 10.00 uur was het gedaan met de rust…..dus toen hebben we de boottocht van 45 minuten gedaan. Toen we terug kwamen van de boottocht wisten we niet wat we zagen… zo druk. Begrijpelijk maar wij waren blij dat we er vroeg bij waren. Zowel, het parkeren, de schone toiletten en het park zelf natuurlijk, krijgen van ons een groot compliment. We kunnen de Keukenhof van harte aanbevelen. Tip: zorg dat je vanaf 7.30 uur gaat parkeren en begin om 8.00 uur.

Heel mooi kleurrijk park !
Het Keukenhof is werkelijk de moeite waard. Zoveel bloemenpracht is verbluffend. Het park is heel proper en goed onderhouden, mits de duizenden bezoekers. Ook de verschillende binnen paviljoenen zijn de moeite waard. Er zijn veel toiletten aanwezig en die zijn ook proper, geen lange wachtrijen. Ook de fluisterboot is aangenaam. Alleen jammer dat er langs het parcours veel velden al gekopt waren. Maar dit heeft waarschijnlijk met het weer en de periode te maken. Enige minpuntje : wat chaos bij het verlaten van de parking. Maar we zijn ook thuis geraakt. 😊

Waanzinnig maar loop langs restaurant Albron
Het was een prachtige ervaring en hebben er van genoten. De tulpen stonden er nog mooier bij dan verwacht. Enige negatieve was restaurant dat door @Albron wordt geëxploiteerd. Friet was koud, personeel niet ingewerkt. Toppunt was bevroren stuk appeltaart. Toen we een opmerking plaatste dat deze bevroren was zou er achter gekeken worden of er nog niet bevroren appeltaart was. Na vijf minuten wachten stond medewerkster dood leuk te vertellen aan een buitenlandse gast dat er slechts een klant was die geklaagd had dat taart bevroren was. Ondertussen was het spitsuur bij de machnetron om voor alle klagende gasten de taart te ontdooien. Helaas moet ik constateren dat personeel en manager niet geschikt zijn voor het vak horeca. Enige smet op bezoek Keukenhof maar geen reden voor negatieve feedback (zolang je maar langs Albron loopt).

A Few Tips About Keukenhof
It is recommended that you purchase your tickets on-line. You must put the time and date of your planned entrance. What happens if it is raining? On an average, 26,000 people visit Keukenhof daily as it is only opened for eight weeks from March to the beginning of May. The best times to visit changes seasonally. Usually, the last 2 weeks in April and the first week in May are usually good. On the Keukenhof web site states that they have an allotment of tickets. You can take a chance and go early to get a ticket the day of. We had already pre-booked our ticket and going in the gate was fast. Luckily, it was indeed a nice day. We stayed in Haarlem. The city is a superb alternative to crazy and busy Amsterdam. Haarlem is like a mini-Amsterdam with canals, history and good places to eat. There are dedicated buses throughout the region. The one in Haarlem left near the train station. Unfortunately, it was about an hour late on our day. Our ticket also included the use of all transportation in and around Amsterdam. We found this useful in our 15-minute train ride into Amsterdam, and our bus from the airport into Haarlem. The park is large, 79 acres (32 Hectares). There are supposedly over 7 million tulips with 800 varieties of bulbs. There is much more than, Tulips, though. We also saw roses, lilies, hyacinths, carnations and irises to name a few flowers. The gardens and ponds with sprouting water are magical. One can take a boat ride, rent a bike for trails and even take a helicopter tour. We opted to walk through the many gardens, pavilions, sculptures and even to a large windmill. Food prices are not unreasonable either. There are unquestionably many photo opportunities. We liked the rounded pads over the water that made one feel that they were actually walking on water. In another area is a small pond with shops and a wagon that played mechanical music. In another pavilion, there is an actual pink Cadillac to sit in. We actually came across a beautiful parade. One day was not enough, but we did give the park a good view. If you found this review to be helpful in any way, please press the “thumbs-up picture” to let me know.

Beautiful displays
Stunning displays, well worth a visit! Not only for the tulips but for all the other flowers. Huge gardens and easily at least a few hours to cover the whole place on foot.

Gorgeous
I visited near the very end of the season, and there was still plenty to see. Used the round trip shuttle bus. Scheduled time to go there. Could get anyone going back. Simple apple pie and hot chocolate for breakfast at one of the cafes. Dutch fries for lunch from one of the trucks. Did the whisper boat even though fields were nearly all harvested. Still enjoyed seeing all the bird life on it.

Excellent experience
We visited on a variable May day, with some rain about. We saw impressive tulips outdoors and fantastic orchids inside. Well worth a visit..!
Sep 28, 2024bethkn0329
Takes your breath away
This place is beautiful and so big that you can spend a few hours here. We enjoyed all the different tulips but the best part of the garden is the area by the water with lots of trees. They have a few gift shops and a cafe.

Magnifique
Un lieu de toute beauté. Des tulipes avec des formes totalement inattendues. Lieu très bien entretenu. Et surtout le pas oublier d'aller voir le pavillon des orchidées.

Keukenhof - The GOAT of Tulip Fields
Went here with my mom and both of us loved it. We went with a tour group of 50+ people and most of us enjoyed it. Would come back here again 10/10

Also lovely when it rains dogs and cats
We came a few days before the season was over. I thought it would be sad since it was raining too. But to my surprise, you had enough to see, although they will close soon for this year. Also, some indoor venues allow a pleasurable visit during bad weather. Only the restaurants: overpriced but ok for mass tourist feeding. You cannot expect more when you see places like this.

À voir absolument
Un magnifique parc superbement entretenu. Des tulipes et des bulbes de printemps à foison. … La promenade en bateau sur les canaux est superbe et les explications sur les champs de tulipes sont de qualité. Une très belle journée en famille

More than just a garden!
Visited 8th of May 2024 (a couple of days before closing for the year) Loved every minute of my visit! Beautifully kept gardens with loads to see! Lost of artwork and information around. More than just a garden with aDj, small animal area, maze, windmill to name a few extras. Options for food were limited with different places selling the same things. Highly recommend!
Jul 21, 2024ElmaryB
Tulips anyone
This was really very lovely and even thought the flowers were not in bloom for their productions this garden was full of all the variety of Tulips they sell 😍. I think we took the most pictures here of all the places we visited on our 3 week vacation to Europe. Absolutely worth the price and time.
Jul 14, 2024Ariyya
Worth it
I think you are missing out if you don't visit this garden during tulip season; its reputation is well-deserved. The grounds are large and extensive, the sheer variety of tulips on display is dizzying. There are many cafes and restaurants but they don't impact the visitor's experience as they are on the outskirts. The gift shops and boutiques have nicer products than those in Amsterdam. Plan to spend at least half a day here. It's worth the time to visit.

Un parc à thème (floral) typique et original
Je n'ai pas été déçu du tout par cette visite. Bien sûr, c'est hyper touristique, il y a du monde, les boissons et repas sont chers (comme dans tous les parcs thématiques), etc... Reste que les aménagements floraux sont magnifiques. Une véritable explosion de couleurs. (Bien sûr, toutes les fleurs ne fleurissent pas en même... J'en ai vu des déjà fanées et d'autres pas encore écloses... Mais c'est logique, la floraison reste un phénomène naturel dépendant de la météo...). En outre, le parc en lui-même est très agréable. Et même si ça reste un parc thématique, il n'en reste pas moins typique et très agréable.

Well worth a visit
2nd time visiting these amazing gardens, and they didn't disappoint, even if the weather was not the best!!! Lovely walk around, it was busy but there was still plenty of space. Very well organised with car parking and entrance. Well worth a visit as it really is good value for money.
Jun 11, 2024Michelle192321
The most stunning gardens & seeing the flower parade just topped it off!
Absolutely stunning garden, loved all the different colours & the planting- so inspiring! Extremely busy though especially after 12pm & there's not enough seating in the restaurant area (our lunch ended up cold after walking around so long looking for 2 free seats to sit & eat) We booked for the day of the flower parade, it goes right past the garden & it was absolutely amazing- loved every minute even though there were a few rain showers but after buying poncho in the shop, I was kept dry! I had booked tickets direct from the website that included transport to & from RAI Amsterdam & it all ran pretty smoothly- there wasn't really any wait time at our 8:30am slot heading over but there was a very long wait to get back afterwards & it also took a lot longer to get back due to traffic. I think it is definitely not to be missed if you're in the area in springtime!
Jun 5, 2024greenfeet
It's never to late to go.
I didn't realize that we were going on the last week they would be open for this year, but it was still a great visit. While many flowers were spent, there were still enough to see and enjoy, especially in the indoor collections. It was crowded on a Sunday, but so colorful. So glad I didn't miss this.

Wonderful Place To Visit! 🌷🌷
Never have we seen so many Tulips, it was excellent, there gardens are immaculately kept, and the colours of the tulips are amazing . The gardens are great just give yourself plenty of time The access too and from Keukenhof are a NIGHTMARE, it took so long to get there as there are hundreds of cars vans and busses all congregating in one area, pretty disorganised to say it happens every year. 🌷

Touristy Tulips
Most of the tulips were in bloom on April 26. It was definitely a crowded tourist attraction, but it was worth it to see all the beautiful, colorful flowers.
May 31, 2024jbg74
Definitely Worth It
We visited the gardens at the end of the tulip bloom. The flowers were beautiful and the different pavilions were great. There were some excellent food stands in the gardens as well. The strawberries we got were some of the best I have ever had. It is well worth visiting in the spring.

Wunderschöne Blumenpracht
Superschöner Park. Wir waren am 27.3.2024 da und haben gestaunt, wieviel schon blühte. Es war unter der Woche und sehr gut besucht. Die Organisation ist trotz der vielen Menschen top, man wird auf dem Parkplatz eingewiesen und die Ticketschalter sind gut besetzt. Einmal im Leben sollte man diese geballte Tulpenpracht erlebt haben.

Wonderful Place To Visit!
The Keukenhof Gardens are only open for eight weeks each year, from mid March to mid May, so you need to plan your visit with specific timing. Our visit was May 2nd and most flowers were still in bloom, but any later could be risky.; it depends on the Spring weather. It is the most unique place and something we’ll never forget. We had three hours there but could have spent much longer. You are given a map guide to follow. Flowers were absolutely amazing, over 7 million tulips, daffodils and other bulbs. There are six pavilions, named after members of the Dutch Royal family and each has a different display- various plants, cut flowers, flower arrangements. Each pavilion has food and drink places and toilets. There are several shops for souvenirs and bulb shops to order your favourite bulbs sent to your home ready for autumn planting. The windmill was special and there are numerous activities for children. A wonderful place to visit!

Beautiful Tulips
Had an amazing day here, we spent around 5-6 hours and enjoyed every moment. There is so much to see and the displays are wonderful. We visited at the end of April, which meant that pretty much everything was on display. The gift shops were great too. This was one of the highlights during our Netherlands trip and we would definitely visit again.
May 26, 2024U2738ZLpeterb
Mind blowing
This is an absolute must-see if you are anywhere near in late March to very early May. I spent a full three hours wondering around. I could have spent more but the weather took a turn. It’s a mix of formal and informal beds, eye-popping mass display, and even near wild areas. Plus building with special varieties. The place is huge, so even through there are a large number or visitors it generally did not feel congested (and that was a Sunday afternoon). Tip: take an extra battery for your camera.

A must visit place in Netherlands
Wow...excellent Tulip garden. It's a must visit place in NL. I visited on the third week of April and on that time I guess it was the most blooming time of the season. The garden was so colorful and vibrant. I used the Keukenhof Express Amsterdam RAI (bus line 852) for going to the tulip garden and return.
May 25, 2024MarpleTraveller
Amazing displays.
We visited in early May, sadly some of the tulip displays had been damaged by the storms of the previous week. However this did not detract from the overall impact. The pavilions have different displays and those were impressive. The facilities were good and located in a number of places throughout the park. Would like to revisit when the tulips are in prime condition.
May 22, 2024KimM750
Great afternoon of colour!
Sadly many of the flowers had gone over, been dead-headed or battered by the rain - however this didn't detract from a very enjoyable afternoon. Very sensibly, flowering potted plants in tubs had replaced the original flowers, so there was lots of colour everywhere. The pretty bridges, and stepping stones that made it look like you were walking on water, were well done. Of course everyone loves the windmill too! I'd certainly return another time, hopefully a little earlier in the season to see Keukenhof in all its splendid glory. Some confusion happened when we tried to initially enter the park as entrance wardens kept waving us on, resulting in us driving beyond the signed exit. Having turned around, we tried again and were allowed in on our second attempt. Maybe brightly coloured car parking permits would've made the attendant's job easier.

Un super parc floral
Un super parc floral , vous y trouverez une multitudes de fleurs très bien misent en valeur , les jardiniers font un travail remarquable ,en intérieur vous trouverez de magnifiques présentations d'orchidées et d'autres pavillons splendides . au fond du parc se trouve un orgue de Barbarie qui produit une très bonne ambiance . Pour la visite préférez le mois d'Avril et une journée de semaine car les week-end sont souvent surpeuplés .

Mediados de Abril es el momento ideal para visitar el parque.
Visitamos el parque a mediados de Abril, es el momento ideal, los Tulipanes estaban en todo su esplendor y sus colores espectaculares. Compramos las entradas online, es más barato, pudimos parquear nuestro auto sin complicaciones, compramos el parqueo también online, estuvo todo bien organizado. Hicimos muchas fotos. Una vez que estás en el parque puedes quedarte el tiempo que desees. Llegar temprano, antes de las 10:00 am es lo mejor, pues puedes disfrutar del paseo y hacer fotos con tranquilidad antes de que lleguen los Buses cargados de gente. Nos hospedamos en Noordwijk. Esta pequeña ciudad está a unos 20 minutos en auto, es tranquila, cerca de la playa, de Keukenhof y de Ámsterdam.

A wonderful day amongst the beautiful flowers of Keukenhof! 🌷
We visited Keukenhof on the 6th of May we were aware before visiting that the flowers were constantly changing and there wouldn’t be the amount of tulips in bloom as in March/April. This however did not spoil our visit whatsoever as there was plenty of other beautiful flowers (and tulips), displays and an exhibition on 75 years of Keukenhof to see too! Due to the popularity of Keukenhof as expected there were lots of visitors but it never felt overcrowded or that you couldn’t get photographs. There were plenty of places to eat and drink we especially enjoyed the Dutch apple pie! And all reasonably priced too. You could spend as long or as little as you liked in the park with seating to be found everywhere. Would definitely recommend a visit if in the Netherlands!

Especatacular poder apreciar un colorido magico
Es lo mas hermoso y espectacular que uno puede apreciar de la naturaleza, tanto colorido inalcanzable de transmitir. Un tour muy organizado, implecable cada rincon, gente muy amable.

Garden Design eccezionale.
Pare vi siano 6 milioni di bulbi di tulipano, di tutte le varietà possibili ed immaginabili. Visita che porta via dalle 2 alle 3 ore, un immenso parco di circa 3 ettari, con un laghetto e un mulino a vento per dare un po’ di atmosfera. Pur non essendo un appassionato di fiori l’ho trovato una attrazione unica; anche se le esposizioni di tulipani esistono anche da noi, come quella del Castello di Pralormo, ma non è minimamente da comparare.
May 13, 2024francod549
Awesome flowers
Millions of blooms to view even as late as April 30. We went early in the day to avoid traffic getting there and the larger crowds that show up later. We used the express bus from the airport taking an earlier one than we had originally scheduled. We visited on a weekday so not terribly crowded. After our visit we rented bicycles right outside the entrance an cycling through the nearby production fields. Check the camera photos from the fields before selecting your route(s). Would definitely go back.

Wenn man Blumen liebt, muss man das gesehen haben. Einfach großartig und trotz der vielen Besucher keinerlei Gedränge

Fantastisk og smukt.
Så fik jeg endelig opfyldt et gammelt ønske siden jeg var helt ung (jeg er nu næsten 54 år): at besøge Keukenhof. Jeg havde næsten tårer i øjnene da jeg endelig stod i fantastiske Keukenhof. Et absolut blomsterparadis...ikke kun med farvestrålende tulipaner og fantastisk flotte påskeliljer og perlehyacinter men osse en masse andre smukke blomster. Det er et stort sted så man skal sætte hele dagen af til sit besøg. Der er fine butikker med et bredt udvalg af ting. Der er gode toiletforhold. Og venligt og hjælpsomt personale. Keukenhof kan varmt anbefales fra mig. ☺️⚘️🤍🇳🇱🇩🇰

La visita al parco è' stata strepitosa ...una variegata distesa di tulipani ..non puoi perdere questa vita se sei ad Amsterdam nel periodo di apertura

We were late but still worth it
We visited in May, a few days before they close for the year but it was still worth it. Obviously, many of the flower beds had no flowers. But it was still worth the visit. There were enough flowers and new ones were still added. There are also some shrubs that were in full bloom. it was obviously not the peak time to visit but it was also not peak crowds. So I think that as long as they are open, they make sure that there is value. We had booked the bus from RAI for 10h30 but the time is not so strict. You just take the next bus whenever you show up.

Captivating Keukenhof!
It could have been a 5 but the flowers were past their best. However, Keukenhof gardens is worth a visit. Very well organised parking and entrance and exits were well placed. There were ample cafes for refreshments and toilets were in strategic positions. The flower displays were beautiful but in many parts, flowers had withered and had been removed. Entrance fees 18 euros per person, not including parking. All in all, an enjoyable vist!

Not to be missed adventure in a lovely park
Tulips were a bit past perfection, but the gardens are lovely and there were plenty of flowers to peruse! The paths are accessible to wheelchairs and walkers, and there is lots of interesting terrain.

Tulips and More Tulips - Stunning Displays!
May is the perfect time to see tulips in Amsterdam and I definitely recommend visiting Keukenhof (it's about 45 minutes from Amsterdam with tons of buses and tour companies going there all day long, every day). I would rate this as the best place I've visited on a trip. It was amazing. And beautiful. And oh so many tulips. Even if you don't love tulips, you'll wander around this place in absolute awe at their beauty and the variety of colors. We arrived on a weekday around 11am and it wasn't too busy. They provide maps as there is a lot to see. I think we spent about 4.5 hours total and saw everything on the map. Aside from the gorgeous tulip displays, there's other stuff like cool art mixed in, a windmill that you can climb up into and see up close, a scenic boat ride (10 euro for that), shops that sell a lot of tulip trinkets and seeds scattered around each area of the park, and places to eat. We went to one self service kiosk area that was great - plenty of seating, interesting food choices. The traditional apple cake is definitely worth trying! There were also places set up to showcase the history of Keukenhof over the years (it was the 75th anniversary when we visited) and one building dedicated to orchids. There's even a fun pond that you can "walk" across on stones that was quite popular. The place definitely filled up the longer we stayed. It seemed like many people were there specifically for photo shoots and some of the displays and attractions were quite crowded and hard to look at, much less get up close. I recommend going early in the morning and leaving by early afternoon if you want to avoid the crowds. Also, while the gift stores were awesome and everywhere, the items were definitely pricey. You could find many of the same things for half the price at the Schipol airport and likely at other tourist shops around Amsterdam. Whether a tulip lover or not, it's so worth checking out!

Loved it! Even at end of season
Visited on 5/9, the very end of the season. Some beds were done & other flowers were clearly at their ends. Even so, it was a stunningly beautiful place and I would go back in a heartbeat, flowers or not. I thought it was incredibly well organized/managed…the anniversary exhibition especially. Would love to go back at peak tulip season & can’t imagine the view from the windmill when the fields are in bloom, but even not in peak there were incredible flowers of many varieties. For me, just walking through the manicured park amongst tall trees and streams was amazing. Highly recommend!
