Bulb Region

Bulb Region

The Bollenstreek – or bulb flower region – between Haarlem and Leiden is one of the most colorful landscapes in Europe. In spring, this area transforms into a true sea of blossoms and becomes a dream destination for a convertible tour. On the Bollenstreek route, you can experience the colorful diversity of the Netherlands in its most original form – on small country roads, flanked by tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths.

Colorful frenzy between dunes and polders

Between the cities of Haarlem, Lisse, Noordwijk, and Leiden, vast flower fields stretch out in geometric patterns in spring – a breathtaking spectacle that attracts visitors from around the world. The region offers not only flowers but also historic windmills, charming villages, and typical Dutch farms. Those driving through the Bollenstreek experience a successful combination of nature, tradition, and relaxed openness.

Ideal for a convertible tour through South Holland

The Bollenstreek is perfect for a convertible tour in South Holland. The flat country roads, the wide views over the fields, and the fresh spring air make the drive a true pleasure. Especially between March and May, the region is a magnet for convertible fans who love the interplay of bright colors and fresh sea air. The route is ideal for day trips or as a relaxed start to a longer convertible tour through the Netherlands.

Tulip fields close enough to stop by

At many points along the route, you can easily stop to enjoy the view, take photos, or simply let the variety of colors affect you. Places like Lisse with the famous Keukenhof or the dunes near Noordwijk invite short detours – perfect for those who want to combine nature and culture.

As part of the convertible tour on the Bollenstreek route, it is a must for anyone who wants to experience flowers, air, and light on four open wheels.
