FLORIADE 2022
Floriade 2022
Traditional Holland (Netherlands Board of Tourism)
This world-renowned horticultural experience takes place every 10 years in Holland, with the modern town of Almere playing host in 2022.
 
This popular event attracts visitors from around the world, from leading experts to keen novices, joined together by their enthusiasm for all things flora and fauna. We are very pleased to be working directly with the organisers, enabling us to offer this visit to you as part of a Dutch or extended European tour for your 2022 programme.
 
With regards to the Floriade site, we are pleased to share the following:
  • The event dates are from 14 April to 09 October 2022.
  • The theme for 2022 is ‘Growing Greener Cities’, and will feature exhibitions and events from International horticulturalists and urban planning specialists.
  • In total, the event will cover 60 hectares, and will offer hop on/hop off e-trains throughout the site for visitors to easily navigate the festival.
  • Included in the group admission will be a one way journey on the cableway which travels high above and across the site (it is 850m long), giving a fantastic view of the whole event.
  • There will be various cafes and restaurants throughout, some of which will be available for pre-booked group refreshments, if required.
  • It will be possible to arrange guided tours, with specialists on hand for any specific requirements

Itinerary ideas.......
Working with a large selection of high quality 4* hotels across the country, including central Amsterdam, we can tailormake your itinerary, carefully selecting the right accommodation for your tour and passengers.
 
The ideal location of Almere means that a visit to the Floriade can easily be included from any base in Holland, with central Amsterdam, The Hague and Utrecht all only a short transfer by motor coach. Ideas for other Dutch visits to consider including in your tour, amongst many others, are:
  • The major annual flower festivals including The Keukenhof (April & early May), the Aalsmeer Flower Festival (mid-June) and the Flower Parades of Zundert, Lichtenvoorde and Valkenswaard (early September)
  • There are many parklands and gardens across the county, including The Gardens of Appeltern, the Botanic Gardens of Utrecht and the Japanese Garden in The Hague.
  • The Royal Palace of Het Loo, Rosendael Castle and Heeswijk Castle.
  • The many museums including Delft Pottery, The Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam), the Windmills of the Zaanse Schans (Zaandam) and the outdoor Zuiderzeemuseum (Enkhuizen).
  • Canal boat trips, cheese producers and heritage railway journeys. 
  • Historic sites of WWII, including the Liberation Route.
  • The artist trails of Van Gogh and Rembrandt.
Keep in mind........
Holland sits in an ideal location, with easy access across mainland Europe and on to the UK, allowing for a multi-country tour, or to tie in with a European river cruise. The possibilities to tailor-make your tour are endless, and we are here to assist with your specific requirements, whether general sightseeing or based on a specific theme
