The Netherlands truly captured my heart. ✨
I fall in love a little with every place I travel, but something about this country felt strangely familiar.
Trip outline: 2 nights each
📍Amsterdam• Canal tour• Private sauna + canal swim
📍Delft & The Hague• Tet a Tet Café• Endless squares filled with shopping, cafés, and beautiful streets to wander
📍Lisse & LeidenAdorable, romantic towns with amazing food and charming little shops.• Keukenhof 💐🌷• Biking through the tulip fields
📍UtrechtI can’t say enough good things about the Dom.You can climb 400+ steps to the top for incredible views and a chance to see inside the bell tower 🔔
But whatever you do, DO NOT skip the underground Dom tour. It was by far my favorite tour of the trip. Spoiler alert….there’s even a human skeleton hidden among the ruins.
We also stopped in Gouda for the day to do the Gouda cheese experience 🧀
