Jan was a wonderful guide- the van was very comfortable and we had a lovely time. He was very relaxing and offered appreciated anecdotes, history and great information on the sights we were seeing. Really recommend this tour!

Too busy, not enough for the money. Especially since an adult has to pay a lot of entry just to accompany their child. Use the money to buy some Lego for your child at home in the shop, you'll have more of it.

Everything went smoothly and Legoland is super fun, especially with younger children!

Engaging and fun in the beautiful palace of the NL Queen Mother Emma.

The visit is worthwhile. Unfortunately parking is very expensive.
