2-Day Blumencorso Flower Parade for Small Groups

Blumencorso Flowers Parade 2019.

The 2019 Blumencorso Flower Parade will be held for the 72nd time. The theme of last year’s parade “Culture”, which was interesting for all connoisseurs of art, this year will be replaced by a completely opposite theme about the changes of the modern world “Changing world”. We invite you to visit the Blumencorso Parade with us!

The program, compiled for small VIP groups, will give you the opportunity not only to visit the flower parade, but also introduce you to Amsterdam, The Hague, Delft and the bright national flavor of the country.

The tour will introduce you to customs, traditions, interesting facts of history and modern life of Amsterdam.

April 13th. We offer 2 variants of the program.

Option 1. 10:00 Blumencorso Parade - Traditional Holland: folklore villages of Zaanse Schans - Volendam. Duration 8 to 9 hours.

The Blumencorso Parade is widely known around the world. Every year, tourists from all over the world gather to admire and capture on camera a festive motorcade of live flowers, following its famous 40-kilometer route from Nordwick to Haarlem.

After viewing and photographing the parade, the program of the day continues with an excursion to the colorful folklore villages of Zaanse Schans and Volendam. These are: mills and wooden klompa shoes, “silver for the poor” and fragrant peasant cheese, a cozy harbor with fishing chalanders “botters” and a noble Dutch herring with smoked eel melting in the mouth. An incredible mosaic of tastes and a kaleidoscope of impressions!

Group of 6-7 people (minivan). Cost: Euro 125.00 per person.

Option 2. 09:00. Blumencorso Parade – “His Highness Delft – Her Majesty The Hague” Duration: 8 to 9 hours.

After viewing and photographing the parade, the program of the day continues the excursion to Delft. This city of Orange and Vermeira is often called “Dutch Bruges”, since it completely preserved the structure of the medieval center with quiet streets and narrow canals. In Delft is the tomb of the ruling house of Orange-Nassau, the mausoleum of Wilhelm the Silent and the factory of the famous blue ceramics. At the factory you can get acquainted with the history of Dutch porcelain, and in the restaurant on the Town Hall Square, in the building of the former city of Wesovaya, taste the freshest seasonal beer with an excellent hot snack, because Delft already in the 16th century was recognized as the city of excellent brewers!

From Delft we will go to visit kings, politicians and officials, to the city of The Hague, the 2nd unofficial capital of the country and a seaside resort. From time immemorial, this city was the place of political intrigues and love adventures of the Hague court, it was here that executions of both mere mortals and politicians were carried out, and the sinister prison of Gevangeneport was bypassed and mentioned only in a whisper.

The Hague, on the other hand, has always been a place where science and the arts flourished. Here lived Benedict Spinoza and Christian Huygens, artists Jan van Goyen and Vincent van Gogh, Mata Hari and other famous personalities.

Modern The Hague is the Mauritshaus Museum, where masterpieces of world painting are collected, the mini-Holland of Madeurodam Park, the unique Loumanmuseum with its collection of old cars, futuristic and racing cars, as well as the famous Scheveningen Boulevard, the SeaLife aquarium and fish restaurants in the harbor, where the freshest catch from the Hague fish exchange is supplied and you can taste crisp slices of fried cod “kibbeling”.

Group of 6-7 people (minivan). Cost: Euro 130.00 per person.

Ordering a guided tour program for 2 days is not mandatory. Individual excursions can be ordered.
