Tulip excursion
During the tulip excursion, you’ll visit Siem Munster’s nursery. Your group will get a behind-the-scenes look at the cultivation, processing and storage of Dutch tulips in this family business.
From bulb to flower
During the guided tour, you’ll gain an insight into the process behind the tulip. You’ll see how tulip bulbs are cultivated, how the flowers grow and how they are processed on the farm.
Depending on the time of year, different aspects of the production process will be covered. These may include flowering tulips, modern processing techniques or the storage of bulbs and flowers.
The excursion demonstrates the level of craftsmanship, technology and care that goes into running a tulip nursery. This makes the programme ideal for groups who want to see more than just the flower fields.
Visit the flower fields
In spring, a visit to the flower fields can also be part of the excursion. Your group will walk through the fields and see the tulips up close. This depends on the weather, the season and conditions at the farm.
During the guided tour, a member of staff will explain the different varieties of tulips and the growing stages of the flowers. This gives your group a better understanding of the work behind the landscape of tulip fields.
The fields also offer plenty of opportunities for photos. This makes the excursion ideal for Dutch and international groups wishing to add a recognisable element to their programme.
Planning a visit
The tulip fields are usually in bloom in spring. The exact period depends on the weather and the season. Even outside the flowering period, a visit to the nursery remains interesting. The guided tour then focuses on the production process, the technology, storage and sustainability measurements.
The excursion is suitable for Dutch and international groups. Guided tours are available in Dutch, English, German and French.
