In fact, the fields of flowers are actually <strong>production fields<\/strong> and ownership of <strong>tulip growers<\/strong>, <strong>of daffodils and hyacinths<\/strong>. You won&#8217;t find the most beautiful tulip fields at Keukenhof, but outside the gardens. A guided bike tour will allow you to see the most beautiful flower fields if everything is well organized in advance.<\/p>\n[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;.citation-bis&#8221;]<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Good to know<\/strong><\/span>: you can&#8217;t rent a bike from Amsterdam to go to Keukenhof or the tulip fields, as it&#8217;s simply forbidden to ride one. Rental companies refuse, so you&#8217;ll have to find your own. If you&#8217;re coming with young children, remember to book cargo bikes with built-in baby seats, as they&#8217;re hard to find locally &#8211; there are hardly any to be found. [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So it&#8217;s the Lisse region, also called \u00ab <strong>Bollenstreek<\/strong> \u00bb that we went there, because it&#8217;s the <strong>area closest to Keukenhof park<\/strong>. In these plantations of tulips, daffodils and hyacinths, you&#8217;ll have time for a leisurely bike ride, between dozens of plots and along country roads and lanes. You&#8217;ll be less cramped and further away from the crowds of the Floral Park. In our opinion, the experience is totally different. In retrospect, we would even have enjoyed a picnic on the edge of the plantations and an overnight stay in Lisse to photograph the windmills and tulip fields at sunset or sunrise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Finally, we rented a bike in a rather out-of-the-way area that I wouldn&#8217;t necessarily recommend.

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Why opt for a cycling tour of Holland&#8217;s tulip fields?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">When we discovered the tulip fields around April 10, we realized that <strong>the bulbs were not planted at the same time<\/strong>. We surely came a week too early to see all these fields in bloom and unfortunately, <strong>some plots of tulips had already been picked or were not yet in bloom.<\/strong> The blooming of tulip fields is different every day and highly dependent on the weather. Tulip growers may also need to cut back a field of tulips to make the flower bulbs more resistant. The floral landscape wasn&#8217;t quite like the photos we sell you, but that didn&#8217;t detract from the charm of this beautiful day. Fortunately, there were more plots of daffodils, jonquils and hyacinths, leaving a sweet fragrance that was very pleasant to breathe in on our bike ride.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another disappointment, <strong>many plots are private, difficult to access and belong to flower growers, so you have to ask kindly for permission to enter<\/strong> or pay an entrance fee to be photographed in the more touristy, often roadside, tulip fields such as \u00ab <strong>The Tulip Barn<\/strong> \u00bb . (<span class=\"activity-inclusions__test activity-inclusions__test--include\" data-v-3f89552f=\"\">a very Instagrammable place in Holland<\/span>). Unfortunately, that&#8217;s not the kind of experience we&#8217;d like to have, preferring to see them as we rode our bikes around on a whim.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The local guide knows where the most beautiful fields of tulips are in bloom<\/strong>, he knows the location perfectly so he&#8217;ll save you wasting time and let you enjoy the scenery without generating stress.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">As we didn&#8217;t have a local guide, <strong>we&#8217;ve taken a wrong turn several times<\/strong> ! We therefore lost time and extended our loop by a few kilometers, which meant that we arrived at the closing time of the bike rental shop, no longer had a bus to take us to the station and had to return to Amsterdam very late. On the plus side, we were able to see the sea, climb sand dunes and stop off at a lovely little lakeside caf\u00e9 to warm up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div data-gyg-href=\"https:\/\/widget.getyourguide.com\/default\/activities.frame\" data-gyg-locale-code=\"fr-FR\" data-gyg-widget=\"activities\" data-gyg-number-of-items=\"3\" data-gyg-partner-id=\"CHI11LO\" data-gyg-tour-ids=\"444074,366285,362805\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_WHERE_TO_SLEEP_A_LISSE\"><\/span>| WHERE TO SLEEP A LISSE<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For those who have decided to spend the night in Lisse to enjoy the tulip fields in full bloom, I&#8217;ve put together a small selection of charming accommodations. <span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/searchresults.fr.html?city=-2148742&amp;aid=1792419&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>You&#8217;ll find a wide choice of accommodation here<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"d2fee87262 pp-header__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/nl\/appartementen-casa-del-lago-lisse123.fr.html?aid=1792419&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Appartementen Lake House<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"d2fee87262 pp-header__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/nl\/duif.fr.html?aid=1792419&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Duif Lisse Hotel &#8211; Schiphol<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"d2fee87262 pp-header__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/nl\/b-amp-b-blossom-lisse.fr.html?aid=1792419&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">B&amp;B Blossom<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_THE_AMSTERDAM_TULIP_FESTIVAL\"><\/span>| THE AMSTERDAM TULIP FESTIVAL<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another not-to-be-missed event in Amsterdam is the Tulip Festival. As you may have guessed, the Netherlands is considered to be the land of flowers, and to mark the start of spring in Holland, Amsterdam, the country&#8217;s capital, is organizing the following events <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tulip-garden-tickets.com\/fr\/festival-tulipes-amsterdam\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>the Amsterdam Tulip Festival <\/strong><\/span><\/a>which begins at the end of March and continues until the end of May. Every year, over a million visitors flock to Amsterdam to welcome spring and stroll through the city streets, enjoying the breathtaking beauty of the tulips.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Keukenhof garden in Lisse remains one of the festival&#8217;s top attractions, but a number of floral events are also organized in the city, where most of Amsterdam&#8217;s neighborhoods are decked out in color. The flower parade is also one of the festival&#8217;s most attractive events, and <strong>the most popular of these is the Bollenstreek Flower Parade <\/strong>which features a different theme every year. All floats are decorated with hyacinths, daffodils, tulips and other flowers. I think it could be very similar to the lemon festival held in Menton in south-east France.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_THE_TULIP_SEASON_WHEN_TO_SEE_THEM_IN_THE_NETHERLANDS\"><\/span>| THE TULIP SEASON: WHEN TO SEE THEM IN THE NETHERLANDS?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What is the best tulip season in Holland? If you come to the Netherlands in spring, <strong>the tulip season in Holland runs from mid-March to mid-May<\/strong> so you&#8217;re likely to see some during your stay.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, if you want to get to the peak of flowering in the Netherlands and see fields of tulips as far as the eye can see, come instead from <strong>mid to late April<\/strong>. It&#8217;s sure to be the best time of year to see all those tulip fields.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Don&#8217;t forget that the tulip season in Holland can change slightly each year, depending on the weather and that not all bulbs are planted<\/strong> <strong>at the same time. <\/strong>Some will be harvested in early May, and conversely, at the start of the season, some plantations may not yet be in flower.<\/p>\n<p>I therefore recommend that you plan your trip for the second half of April, when most of the trees will have all their leaves, the flowers will have grown well and you&#8217;ll have the best chance of enjoying these magnificent landscapes not far from Amsterdam.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I hope our feedback will be of great help to you in preparing your visit to Keukenhof Park and also to see the tulip fields in the Netherlands.
