The widest family sands in the delta, behind the highest dunes in Zeeland
Schouwen's north-west corner has the broadest beach in the province — wide enough that a busy August day still looks empty from the dune crest — with a dune belt of pine and sea buckthorn behind it and pavilions at each entrance. It is the family end of the Zeeland coast, and the shallow shelf is why.

Three cities in a day from Amsterdam: Rotterdam's Markthal and Cube Houses, Vermeer's Delft with a Delftware workshop, and The Hague's Binnenhof and Mauritshuis, with the Kinderdijk windmills en route.
North to the village with canals instead of streets: an electric whisper boat between the 180 footbridges and out into the Weerribben-Wieden reed beds, with free time for pancakes on a canal terrace.

The largest Van Gogh collection in the world in chronological order, from the Potato Eaters to the Auvers wheatfields, with the letters that explain each turn. Timed entry included.
The city as locals use it: a guided ride through the canal ring, along the Vondelpark and out onto the Amstel dyke, with a stop at a waterside café and the traffic rules explained before you start.
