Private Tour to the Royal Flower Auction (min 1- max 7 travelers)

Description

Go off-the-beaten path and discover Royal FloraHolland, the world's largest trading center for plants and flowers, with a multiple award-winning tour operator.

The Flower Auction building is the 4th largest building by footprint in the world, covering 518,000 m2 (128 ac). Flowers from over 50 countries around the world are traded every day in this gigantic building. And you have the chance to witness this.

Experience the hustle and bustle of the processing hall while you slowly make your way to the auction room. Although nowadays most trading is done online you still see traders bidding against the auction clock. Enjoy a private guided tour from a special gallery and learn about the flower industry, the role of flowers in Dutch history and how they are still important to the Dutch both culturally and economically.

After the tour you have some personal time to take more pictures or to make a stop in the souvenir shop before making the drive (back) to your drop-off address.
