A perfect Mother/Daughters trip to the Netherlands

The Netherlands | Jun 8 - Jun 14, 2026

My three daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent trip to the Netherlands. Mieke from the kimkim travel agency was wonderful to work with; she designed an itinerary that perfectly met our needs, as well as our budget, and was always available to assist us throughout the week.
We visited many areas of interest, savored wonderful local dishes, and especially enjoyed a spa day at the Blooming Hotel in Bergen. We highly recommend Mieke and her team at kimkim for anyone planning travel to the Netherlands.
Sincerely,
