Let's welcome the new year!

​

A cosy (warm and friendly) New Year's Eve in the Netherlands, with many festivities and fireworks. The Dutch celebrate their New Year's Eve with friends or family, watch New Year's conferences on television, drink a lot of champagne and eat oliebollen (traditional greasy fried dough balls). An amusing time with a light show of all the fireworks that explode at midnight.

 

Start with a discovery of the city of Amsterdam on the historic canals. Enjoy the centuries-old canals during a cruise. And do not forget to taste the delicious products of the Dutch glory! The guide will take you to the various highlights of the old city center.

 

The New Year's Eve party takes place in a unique place with live music and a cold and warm buffet. A fantastic light show with beautiful fireworks on the harbour pier of Amsterdam. Dance and toast yourself to the New Year with glee.

 

The best way to start the New Year is to dive in! A special Dutch tradition is a dip into the new year. You can dive into the water at several places in the Netherlands for a fresh start to the new year. Then you will be introduced to the tastiest cheese in the world from Henri Willig. A cheese tasting at one of the most special farms in the Netherlands.

 

Here you experience the traditional cheese-making process in an authentic cheese factory atmosphere. With the help of our expert multilingual guides and a short film, you will discover the traditional cheese-making process. In the meantime, you will enjoy some of the best cheeses paired with mustard. The tasting is complete with a glass of wine and port or speciality beer.
