One of the Netherlands’ top attractions, Keukenhof, 1km west of Lisse, is the world’s largest bulb-flower garden. It attracts nearly 800,000 visitors during its eight-week season, which is almost as short-lived as the blooms on the millions of multicoloured tulips, daffodils and hyacinths.
Special buses (€9, every 15 minutes, 30 minutes) link Keukenhof with Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport and Leiden's Centraal Station; combination tickets covering entry and transport are available (adult/child €23.50/12.50). Pre-purchase tickets online to help avoid huge queues.
