I think if you are a first-time tourist to the Netherlands, than this is really worth going to. But since I ve been in Netherlands very often, and almost live here, I consider this place to be just another attraction for tourists.
We got here very early (few minutes before opening), just before the huge tourist busses arrived. This gave us an hour to enjoy the place in peace and quiet.
Unfortunately, we were quite early in the season (last weekend of March) and majority of tulips did not bloom yet. BUT you can see a lot of the in the green house. Thanks to that I found my favorite type of the tulips.
There are a number of different expositions to visit as well as few places to enjoy coffee or have something to eat.
It s really nice place to enjoy the nature and smell beautiful smells.
