I don’t think we could have had a Guide any better than Alette. The experience was better than expected. Thanks to Context for the great excursion.
Pick up, transportation was easy and comfortable. Alette was pleasant, informative. We enjoyed the tour of the gardens- she navigated us through the crowds so we were able to see and photograph well, as well as help us purchase some bulbs. From your description however, we expected more info about the history of the tulip trade, "the development of industrialized farming in the area and the continued importance of floriculture for Holland’s economy in the 21st century." After the tour was over, we realized we didn't get that information. Although we enjoyed the tour, it is overpriced for what was offered.
Josette was patient w my 81 year old mother and able to transcend generations (we had my 20 year old along as well) with explanations and engagement of our interests.
