5 Family Friendly Weekend Road Trips in Amsterdam

When you’re looking for an easy way to explore Amsterdam with the family, there are plenty of options. This blog post will introduce you to five road trips in Amsterdam that your whole family can enjoy!

One Day Road Trip

Start by grabbing some groceries or breakfast at the Carrefour hypermarket before heading to Kennemerstraat. Spend your morning exploring this beautiful seaside town and then head back for lunch in Amsterdam.

2. Car Rental Weekend Trip

Take a Saturday trip out of the city with Car rental Schiphol Airport! Head south on Route A20 towards Haarlem, stopping at the tulip fields of Keukenhof and exploring the historic city center.

Keukenhof park has around 20 million bulbs planted annually across acres of gardens, which are open from March 16th until April 20th every year (depending on the weather).

Car rentals such as BB&L Car Rental at Schiphol Airport make exploring the city so much easier than trying to find a parking spot or public transportation.

3. Zoo Road Trip

One of the best places to visit in Amsterdam is A’dam Zoo. This zoo has an excellent atmosphere for families with young children and offers many educational opportunities beyond just seeing animals like bears, lions, monkeys, or tigers.

There are over 5 million visitors each year who have an incredible experience observing all sorts of creatures from around the world!

4. Dutch Countryside Road Trip

Spend a day exploring the Dutch countryside in a rented car. Head east to explore rural towns like Monnickendam or Volendam, where you’ll find windmills alongside canal sides and dikes. Another option is heading south towards Alkmaar to see traditional cheese markets before stopping at Kinderdijk for beautiful views of 19th century mills.

Dutch travel enthusiasts will find beauty in the historic mills of Kinderdijk. The 19th century architecture is a sight to behold. There are plenty of photo opportunities at each stop along this UNESCO World Heritage Site’s canals used for transporting goods across Holland.

5. Beach Hopping Road Trip

Another great idea if you want some time outdoors is beach hopping at Zandvoort or Egmond Aan Den Hoef Beach. Kids will love exploring the beaches, walking on the sand, and dipping their toes in shallow water. Car hire can be used to explore other Dutch towns nearby, such as Haarlem or Alkmaar.

Haarlem and Alkmaar are two Dutch towns that both offer a unique take on what it means to live in the Netherlands. While Haarlem is known for its beautiful canals and medieval architecture, Alkmaar offers an experience more akin to living at sea with all of the fishing boats serving as a constant reminder of life by the water.
