Tickets for Day Trip to Keukenhof tickets 2026: official vs resellers, combo deals & insider tips

Keukenhof is strictly a seasonal attraction (typically late March to mid-May); as of June 2026, the park is closed, and any tickets sold are for the 2027 season.

Standard entry-only tickets do not include the Keukenhof Express bus; expect to pay an additional €12–€17 for round-trip shuttle transfers from Amsterdam or Schiphol if not booking a 'Combi' or 'Transfer' variant.

'Skip-the-line' or 'Priority' labels apply only to the park entrance; they do not bypass the 30–60 minute queues often found at the shuttle bus boarding points in Amsterdam or Schiphol.

While a free supervised depot is available for large suitcases, it has limited capacity and may fill up during peak hours; small lockers are also available for free.

Tickets are not sold at the park entrance. You must secure a timed-entry slot online in advance, as popular dates frequently sell out weeks ahead.

Food and beverage prices at the park pavilions are significantly higher than Amsterdam city rates; visitors are permitted to bring their own snacks and water to avoid these costs.

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.

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.

For 2027, Keukenhof states that tickets become available from mid-October and use 30-minute arrival slots. Manual wheelchairs can be rented for €5; electric wheelchairs and mobility scooters may be brought, but electric devices are not available to rent on site. Verify age bands, proof requirements and any free-ticket rules in the official checkout or selected seller voucher.

Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
