Discover Holland, Netherlands with Your €28
Where can your 28 euros go? Visit Holland and get to know a little bit more about the Dutch history and their culture! Hollad is actually one of the countrysides of the Netherlands.
Let me tell you, I fell in love with Holland and €28 was worth it. We were able to discover some of the picturesque of 7 parts of this countryside.
How to reach Holland? Easy. It's just a
3-minute free shuttle ferry ride away from the Amsterdam Centraal
station. Don't worry there is a ferry available every 4 minutes.
What's with €28? Well, we bought a ticket online with Hop On Hop Off Holland.
Their office is located at the ground floor of "This is Holland"
building. The ticket includes a roundtrip bus ride from the first stop
to seventh stop.
What are the stops?
1. ZAANDAM - it is said to be the favorite city of Tsar Peter, Peter the Great of the Russian Empire.
2. ZAANSE SCHANS - this is the windmill village of the Dutch countryside.
