**Known as the most beautiful spring garden in the world, the tulip fields of Lisse are open to visitors for just 2 months out of the year (Mar to May). **

In the springtime, after the snow melts and the rain subsides, you can see the sunshine down on this rainbow flower field and immediately feel like you’re in a dream. That’s how many visitors have described their trip to Keukenhof bearing witness to the earth waking up from long winters to express floral miracles or the 7 million spring-flowering bulbs.

As corny as it may sound to hear about the magic of this large botanical garden, the pictures alone can let you in on what you can expect from these long stretches of tulip fields, it’s no joke nor something you want to miss when you’re around!

  • As if this is not enough of a picturesque sight to see, you can also find fine art including sculptures and other works. The combination of flower field gardens and visual art is nothing short of breathtaking.
  • Additional gardens present are a tropical beach garden, cottage garden, red romance garden, and more themes and qualities.
  • Activities here include the “whisper boat” a boat ride over a canal through the tulip fields and cycling through the areas next to the fields by means of rented bicycles.

Tips and Tricks

  • While the park is open a few months out of the year be sure to visit before or check the website for up-to-date info, otherwise you may miss the tulips as some mistakenly do.
  • Catch the annual flower parade if you are in town! Check the website to see when it is scheduled for the year.
  • Take lots of pictures up close from the side path, but don’t walk through the flowers or you could damage the bulbs.
  • Keukenhof is a pedestrian park only; meaning you will have to leave your bike in the designated bike zone.
  • Drones are not allowed, sorry!
  • You can bring your dog, just make sure they’re on a leash at all times.

Getting There

  • By Car: 5 min car ride from Lisse city centre; parking available on site
  • By Bus: Lisse, Keukenhof is its own bus stop directly in front of the entrance building
