A new addition to the hotel’s “Tulips in Bloom” collection, the “Tulip Delights” package begins with an audio-guided journey through the Tulip Museum. Visitors will learn about the tulip’s historical role as a symbol of affluence, and its cultural relevance through the ages. The museum’s newly expanded garden, home to over four million tulips arranged in stunning patterns, serves as an ideal setting for photos and an outdoor tea experience featuring tulip-shaped pastries. Crafted by a local pastry chef, these vibrant treats combine velvety mousse and a jelly center on a crisp, buttery base. The “Tulip Delights” package is available for EUR 425 for two guests for a 3.5-hour experience, including round-trip limousine transfers. 

For those interested in a deeper exploration of Amsterdam’s rich tulip heritage, the “Tulip Treasures” package offers a guided tour of the museum with an expert grower, followed by a visit to the museum’s enchanting flower garden. Guests then return to the hotel for a two-course lunch or dinner at the elegant Grand Café Krasnapolsky, with views over the iconic Dam Square. This experience is priced at EUR 649 for two guests for a four-hour duration, inclusive of round-trip limousine transfers. 

The “Tulip Romance” package is perfect for those seeking a unique blend of romance and nature. It includes a private limousine ride, a guided tour of the Tulip Museum, and a gourmet picnic prepared by an Anantara butler, set amidst a private tulip field. The menu features indulgent dishes such as Dutch cheese sandwiches with Beemster, lobster salad with artichokes, grapefruit, tomato, and asparagus, Dutch caviar served with blini and crème fraîche, and a tulip-inspired dessert crafted with layers of pear, elderflower, yogurt, and spiced Speculaas biscuits.  

All three of these exclusive tulip-themed packages come with a special gift bag from Bloomeffects, a premium skincare brand known for its antioxidant-rich products derived from tulips cultivated at a family-run local farm.
