After breakfast, we’ll head to the pretty town of Leiden by coach. Here, a local guide will accompany us on a walking tour, taking in many of the city’s highlights. This atmospheric university city boasts countless museums, canals, and ‘hofjes’ – or inner courtyards. As you will be visiting Leiden in spring, you will find yourself in the centre of the flower-bulb region!
After some free time for lunch at leisure, we head to Hortus Botanicus, the oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands. This amazing garden has a large collection of plant species from Asia, Southern Europe and South Africa. This is where Carolus Clusius grew Europe’s first big tulip collections. We enjoy entrance and a guided tour here, with free time to explore before returning to our hotel by coach.
