A thrilling 4-day tour to experience a magical illuminated Dutch Palace to see how the Dutch Royal Family enjoyed Christmas as well as the iconic city of The Hague, the setting for the Royal Fair bringing magic to the darkest months of the year.
Nadine says…
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Paleis Het Loo! The walk from the entrance to the palace is breathtaking, and seeing the world from the perspective of the Dutch Royal Family is truly remarkable. There are two audio tours available, and I highly recommend taking the time to listen to them; you can choose to learn about either William III and Mary Stuart or the House of Wilhelmina. The palace is beautifully decorated and illuminated for winter, making it a must-see destination when visiting Holland.
Have a Royal Dutch Xmas Time!
