The Amsterdam Tulip Trail

APRIL 2026

TRAVEL TO THE NETHERLANDS

with Travel & Culture Salon

I’m thrilled to announce The Amsterdam Tulip Trail, my first curated travel experience, coming April 2026! I’ll be personally hosting this intimate journey, limited to just 5–10 guests, as we explore the Netherlands during its peak tulip bloom season.

Together we’ll trace the intertwined worlds of tulip history, 17th-century art, and the Dutch Golden Age. Along the way, I’ll bring my online course The Cultivated Tulip to life in the field, guiding visits to gardens, museums, and historic sites—especially those tied to the fascinating story of Dutch Tulipmania. This infamous speculative craze swept Holland in the 1630s.

If this sounds like your kind of journey, I’d love to hear from you. 🌷

There’s no need for a commitment yet, just a note to let me know you’d like to be among the first to receive full details when they’re released.

Here’s a glimpse of some of the remarkable sights and experiences awaiting you on The Amsterdam Tulip Trail.

Keukenhof, the Garden of Europe.

Wander through Keukenhof, open just eight weeks each spring, where more than 7 million bulbs and 800 tulip varieties create one of the world’s most spectacular floral displays.

Alsameer flower auction.

Experience the Aalsmeer Flower Auction, the world’s largest, where billions of blooms are traded in a traditional Dutch auction style and distributed worldwide.

Daytrip to Delft.

Step into Delft, the city Vermeer called home, then try your hand at tradition with a workshop at the Royal Delft factory, where you’ll paint your own piece of iconic blue-and-white pottery.

The tulip fields in the Bollenstreek.

Cycle through the Bollenstreek, the Netherlands’ famed Bulb Region, where endless tulip fields, windmills, and dunes create the quintessential Dutch flower experience.

Rijksmuseum treasures.

Explore the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam’s grand 19th-century national museum, home to masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Frans Hals, and Jan Steen, plus an exceptional collection of Delftware, sculpture, and decorative arts.

The floating flower market.

Stroll through the Bloemenmarkt, Amsterdam’s floating flower market, where stalls on houseboats have sold blooms since 1862—the only market of its kind in the world.

Sunset dinner cruise.

Gather for a sunset dinner cruise along Amsterdam’s 17th-century canals, where we, tulip maniacs, will unite over good food, great views, and plenty of flower talk as the historic city drifts by.
