Flower auction
Our private tour will start around 7.30 in the morning.
We will drive south of Amsterdam to Aalsmeer, where the largest flower auction in the world, 'Royal Flora Holland,' is located.
Distribution
We will explain about the auctioning system and what the influence of internet has become on the sales of flowers and plants.
We will visit the distribution areas for flowers and plants.
Wholesale center for florists
Apart from the auction, where wholesale exporters buy larger quantities of flowers and plants, there is also a commercial wholesale center for florists who need small amounts of flowers and plants.
We can visit it if you are interested in this part of the flower business.
After the flower auction, we will drive to the eastern part of Holland, to Giethoorn.
Giethoorn
After approx. 75 minutes by car, we will reach Giethoorn.
We will do a guided canal cruise (not private) of 1 hour on the canals of Giethoorn and the nearby lake.
If you would like, we can also arrange a private cruise or a private lunch cruise.
Prices upon request.
Then, it is time for lunch, and we can choose from various restaurants along the canals.
After lunch, we can walk along the 'usually' busy canals with many private boats.
Around 3.30 p.m., we will start driving back to Amsterdam, where we will arrive around 5.00 p.m.
