Netherlands

The Netherlands, a picturesque European gem, captivates visitors with its blend of historic charm and modern vibrancy. In Amsterdam, the dynamic capital, you can cruise along scenic canals, visit world-class museums like the Van Gogh Museum, and explore the lively neighbourhoods on foot or by bike. Beyond the city, the enchanting windmills of Kinderdijk and the vibrant tulip fields of Keukenhof showcase the country’s iconic landscapes. The historic town of Utrecht, with its medieval architecture and tranquil canals, offers a delightful escape.
