4 things to know before your visit
- Entrance: Keukenhof operates with two main access points: the Main Entrance (Hoofdingang), where the Keukenhof Express shuttle buses from Schiphol and Amsterdam RAI drop off visitors, and the Extra Entrance (Extra Ingang) located near the secondary parking lots. While 'skip-the-line' tickets bypass the physical ticket office, all visitors must still queue for barcode scanning at the turnstiles. For the fastest entry, book a slot before 10:30 AM or after 4:00 PM to avoid the peak tour-bus arrivals; if you are driving, the Extra Entrance often has shorter scanning queues than the bus-heavy Main Entrance.
- Price: As of June 2026, Keukenhof is closed for the season, with the next opening scheduled for mid-March to mid-May 2027. Official adult entry is typically €21.50 (online only). 'Combi-tickets' including the Keukenhof Express shuttle from Amsterdam or Schiphol typically cost €35.00–€39.00. Partner bundles that include additional tours like Zaanse Schans or windmill cruises start from approximately €54.50, as seen in current Tiqets listings. Children aged 4–17 typically pay €9.00–€10.00, while those under 4 enter free.
- Discounts: For the 2027 season (mid-March to mid-May), Keukenhof requires all visitors to hold a timed-entry ticket purchased online in advance; tickets are not sold at the gate. Adults (18+), seniors, and students pay a standard rate (typically €21.50). Children aged 4–17 require a reduced-price ticket (approx. €9–€10), while infants (0–3) enter free but still require a 'free' ticket added to the order. Disabled visitors can rent manual wheelchairs for €5 (plus a €20 refundable deposit) by reserving online before 5:00 PM the day prior. Groups of 20+ may qualify for reduced rates when booked together.
- Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I visit Keukenhof in June 2026?
No, Keukenhof is a seasonal park that is only open during the spring bloom. For the 2026 season, the gardens were open from March 19 to May 10; the park is closed to the public throughout June.
Do I need to print my tickets or can I show them on my phone?
Mobile tickets are standard and preferred. You can simply show the QR code on your smartphone to be scanned at the park entrance or by the bus driver if you have a Combi-ticket.
What happens if I arrive late for my booked time slot?
Keukenhof uses strict timed entry to manage crowds. While there is typically a 30-minute grace period before and after your slot, arriving significantly late during peak bloom weekends may result in denied entry.
Does a standard entry ticket include the bus from Amsterdam?
No, a standard entry ticket only covers park admission. To include transportation, you must purchase a 'Combi-ticket' (which includes the public Keukenhof Express bus) or an organized coach tour from providers like GetYourGuide or Tiqets.
Are there storage facilities for large luggage and suitcases?
Small items can be stored in free lockers (25x55x45 cm) near the main entrance. For larger suitcases, a free supervised luggage depot is available at the entrance. Capacity is limited, so it is recommended to arrive early or leave large bags at your hotel if possible.
Do children and infants need their own tickets?
Yes. While children under 4 enter for free, they still require a 'free' ticket added to your online order to account for park capacity. Children aged 4–17 require a reduced-price ticket (approximately €9–€10 online).
Can I cancel or change my visit date after booking?
Official tickets are generally non-refundable or have a strict 4-day cancellation window. Booking through partners like GetYourGuide or Tiqets often provides more flexibility, typically allowing a full refund up to 24 hours before your visit.
What is the biggest bottleneck I should prepare for?
The longest queues are often not at the park gates, but at the bus boarding points (especially Amsterdam RAI and Schiphol). To minimize wait times, aim for the earliest morning slots or visit in the late afternoon after 16:00.
