Zaanse Schans is an old hamlet on the banks of the River Zaan with characteristic wooden houses, small bridges, tradesmen’s workshops and historic windmills – the afternoon is spent at the Keukenhof Flower Festival (entrance fee included) – set in 77 acres of wooded park and one of the world's most spectacular flower gardens, Keukenhof was established in 1949 as a showcase for Dutch bulb growers and now, every spring, more than seven million bulbs are planted resulting in a spectacular display of flowering splendour.
Day 5 – Bruges
Famous for lace making, chocolate and its picturesque network of canals, Bruges’ historic city centre is included on UNESCO’s World Heritage List – continue for our Channel crossing back to the UK and then return to our original departure points with comfort stops en route.
