You can also admire numerous sights and visit unique places outside of Amsterdam. The Netherlands is a relatively small country, so you don't have to spend hours in the car to see many of these hotspots in a short period of time. To give you an idea, if you drive from the southernmost part of the Netherlands to the northernmost part, you're about 2.5 hours away. In short, it would really be a waste if you skip other wonderful sights in the Netherlands. Also for these experiences in our country, you can perfectly rely on Amsterdam Magazine's selection. Will you join us?
By now it is clear that there is plenty to do in the Netherlands outside of Amsterdam, but what exactly? At Amsterdam Magazine, we do everything we can to select the best must sees in the country. For example, what about "The Best of Holland"? This tour takes you to the best sights in the country. You will be guided through the picturesque windmill village of Zaanse Schans and the authentic fishing villages of Volendam and Marken. A boat trip between the villages is an absolute highlight. In the afternoon you will visit the Royal Delft Factory & Museum and The Hague. Want to stay near Amsterdam? Then visit Muiderslot Castle, which is included on UNESCO's World Heritage List. A guided tour through the Golden Age with the impressive Ridderzaal is included in the ticket.
