Tips

What to see in the Netherlands? This question has more answers than you might think and most of them lie far beyond the borders of Amsterdam. The Netherlands is a small country with a huge concentration of interesting places. Canals, museums, harbors, and polders that you’ll remember for years after you return.

In this section, you’ll find a guide to Amsterdam as well as tips for day trips outside the capital. Haarlem, Utrecht, Delft, Keukenhof, Giethoorn, or the North Sea coast. We write about how to get around the Netherlands by bike (because there’s really no other way). Where to find more affordable accommodations outside the city center, and what to expect in each season. We include specific itineraries and tips that simply don’t fit into the guidebooks you’ll find in bookstores.

Ad space: We traveled through the Netherlands from north to southby  bike, train, and on foot. We find accommodations through Booking.com, which has exceptionally good coverage in the Netherlands, even in smaller towns off the beaten path. For guided tours and excursions, we recommend GetYourGuide the windmills in Kinderdijk or a canal cruise in Amsterdam are a completely different experience with a guided commentary.

Choose a city or a topic and start reading. The Netherlands is a great destination for both a weekend getaway and a longer trip and we’ll show you why people love coming back here.

It isn't so much about bread as about recovering muscles we didn't know we had. At the same time Christmas was approaching at speed, and even though New Zealand turns into a literally tropical destination in summer, we opted to "flee" to a more tropical Bali. Rather than a travelogue,...
Bali is a land of varied flavours, homegrown spices, ingredients and ways of satisfying hunger. At first we focused on the local warungs (restaurants), because they're cheap and the food is cooked by locals, often in unbelievable conditions.
