When spring comes around, millions of flowers start to bloom at Keukenhof in the Netherlands. Fields of hyacinths, daffodils, and of course, tulips, normally attract many visitors from around the world. Due to Covid, Keukenhof has to stay closed for the season but that doesn't mean you have to miss the flower festival altogether. Keukenhof offers virtual tours on its YouTube channel so you can still enjoy the spring beauty in all its glory from the comfort of your home.

Virtual Tours at the Keukenhof

From March 20 until May 9, Keukenhof opens its doors for virtual visitors. "Unfortunately, visitors are not yet allowed to come to the park," says director Bart Siemerink. "And because you as a visitor are not allowed to come to Keukenhof, we bring Keukenhof to you."

Siemerik: "We want to make everyone happy with beautiful, colorful images of our park."

Keukenhof is a park where more than 7 million flower bulbs are planted every year. Gardens and four pavilions show a fantastic collection of tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, orchids, roses, carnations, irises, lilies, and many other flowers. You will be overwhelmed by a spectacle of colors and perfumes. With their virtual tours, you can take a walk through the colorful spring gardens and listen to staff talk about their favorite flowers while they show you their favorite spots in the park.

The Blooming Beauty is Ready for Visitors

Keukenhof is virtually open until May 9th. "We hope that we will soon be able to receive visitors in the park. For now, that will be mainly Dutch visitors, due to the pandemic," says Siemerik. This year the Keukenhof will be serving as a 'walking park' where a limited number of visitors are welcome to enjoy the spring flowers in a safe and controlled way.
