Known as the garden of Europe, with more than 100 acres filled with over 7 million flowering bulbs, we stroll through breath-taking waves of colour on this unforgettable half day excursion. Free time this evening to cycle along the many towpaths around the lake or visit a local cheese market, in the nearby medieval town of Gouda.
