The activity was well curated that it moved me. I’m super grateful we took this activity. The “rise” of the people of Holland to protect its land and people from the devastation brought by flood is very inspiring. The continued loss of lives and homes in The Philippines brought by floods has a solution after all. Grateful to the creators. Definitely a “must-see”!
Can honestly say this was one of the best experiences of our lives. It started with photographs followed by 2 educational, informative & interesting videos about the history of Holland and how it was made. There was then an amazing 5D flight simulator that took you on a tour of Holland. It was like a rollercoaster but better - the seats moved, there was water spray when you went through clouds, smell of flowers when you flew over Tulip Fields and stunning views too. The staff were incredibly friendly and chatty. We booked with the iamsterdam card so our tickets were free. As a wheelchair user the venue was fully accessible and you could get a free carer's ticket. A 100% must do if you're in Amsterdam.
One of the best interactive indoor experiences I‘ve ever had. And also really informative, about the Dutch culture, the history, why many cities have ,,Dam“ in their name, and much more. All of it was told in a nice interactive, fun way, not just like monotonous documentary style! The highlight of course is the flight over Holland in a 5-D Cinema! You really get a feeling for the country, their traditions, known sights, and much more!
You could learn a lot (even if you are not from Holland, you can partly understand what is being said and there are subtitles in English) in the show and the flight was truly very enchanting.
Very nice place to visit with your family!
Amazing! The whole family loved it!
An experience that is also worthwhile for people coming from the Netherlands. For young and old an experience where you learn about the Netherlands and look proudly at the country
A presentation in three parts. One young woman talks about the Netherlands. Especially the water, the reclamation and the flood in 1953! In room two we see the Netherlands with various places that we literally fly over in room three. Last one is well put together A special drone flight which recently replaced the helicopter flight.
A friend recommended this and I'm so glad. I'd never heard of it, didn't see it advertised anywhere and it was absolutely brilliant. It's a short experience (although we doubled up our booking with a canal cruise from outside afterwards). First of all you move from room to room, watching short films about the history of Holland, specifically its relationship with water and the weather. If geography isn't your thing (it's not mine), I promise it's much more interesting than you expect. It's also short and all presented by a rather lovely Dutch woman (with English subtitles and I think other languages available via a QR code). What this all builds up to is a 5D simulated flight across the Netherlands, that is a very sensory experience. It all feels very realistic and it was absolutely exhilarating. We loved it. It takes about an hour in total. I thought the experience was quite reasonably priced. You access it via a ferry by Centraal station. Ferries are every few minutes, take only a few minutes to cross to Amsterdam Noord and are all free. Highly recommended. There is the option of a canal cruise after, which we did. Informative and entertaining - our captain was Dexter and he was a great guide; funny too. We toured canals and open water for 75 minutes, taking in lots of places of interest and hearing lots of Amsterdam's history. We got dropped back where we started and, from there, there are other places to visit nearby or you can just get the free ferry straight back.
It is a fun times for all ages to learn and see the beauty of Holland. This is a 3 stage production, saving the best for last!
