Flower auction

Our guided tour commences at your hotel at 6.30 a.m.
We will first drive to Aalsmeer, where flower auction 'Royal Flora Holland' is based.

Royal Flora Holland is the worlds biggest trade building and more than 10.000 people find a job with the cooperative flower auction and at the flowers and plants wholesale companies.
The auction is divided in 2 separate sections, one for cut flowers and one for plants.
We will visit the cut flower department, where we will also visit the cool store, where Peony cut flowers are stored at night, before auctioning starts.
After that, we will take a look at the distribution of cut flowers (Peonies, Roses, Sunflowers, etc. ).

Wholesale center for florists and garden centers.

After the auction visit, we can pay a visit to a commercial wholesale center that florists e.g. can visit to buy their smaller volumes of floral supplies, plants and cut flowers.
After this visit, we will drive to the town of Lisse.

Peonies

In Lisse, we will visit the annual Peony flower show with more than 125 varieties. Many growers will send in their varieties to show their quality to the visitors.

After this show, we will have lunch in a nice restaurant.
