Madurodam — the whole country, at knee height
Madurodam is the Netherlands rebuilt at 1:25 scale — and built properly. The canal houses of Amsterdam, the Delta Works, Schiphol with aircraft that taxi to the runway, container ships that dock, trains that actually run on the network.
You walk through it looking down on a country you have spent the week looking up at. It reorganises the place in your head: you can finally see how the polders, the dykes and the cities fit together.
Why we recommend it to almost everyone
Most attractions are aimed at somebody. This one lands with everyone at once.
Small children get moving things and levers to pull. Older children get the engineering — how a country below sea level keeps the water out. Adults get the model-making, which is obsessive in the best way, and a genuinely good explanation of Dutch history along the way.
We have taken families with a three-year-old and a grandmother in the same van and had both come out happy. That is rare enough to be worth saying.
An easy day, not a demanding one
It is about an hour from Amsterdam, in The Hague, near the dunes. The park is flat, paved and compact, so pushchairs and wheelchairs are no trouble, and two to three hours is enough to see it properly.
Because your driver waits for you, there is no return coach to catch. You leave when your family has had enough — not before, and not two hours after.
Make a full day of it
The North Sea beach at Scheveningen is twenty minutes from the park: a wide stretch of sand, a pier and a long promenade. After a morning of careful looking it is a good place to let children run.
The Hague itself is ten minutes away, if the adults would like something too — the Binnenhof, the Peace Palace, and a handsome old centre that most visitors to the Netherlands never see.
And in spring, Keukenhof is on the road back to Amsterdam. It makes for a long day, but if you are here in April it is a very good one.

常見問題
Is Madurodam only for children?
No, and that is exactly why we recommend it. The model-making is superb and the detail rewards adult attention — most parents end up more absorbed than their children. It is the rare attraction where nobody is bored.
What ages does it suit?
Everything from toddlers to grandparents. Small children like the moving parts and the interactive levers; older ones get the history; adults get the craftsmanship.
How long do we need there?
Two to three hours suits most families. Because your driver waits, you can leave when you have had enough rather than when a coach says so.
How far is it from Amsterdam?
About an hour each way, in The Hague. That makes it comfortable as a relaxed day rather than a rush.
Is it suitable for a pushchair or wheelchair?
Yes. The park is flat and paved throughout, and the paths are wide. Tell us what you need and we will make sure the vehicle suits.
其他一日遊
Burgers' Zoo & Safari
Not a zoo of cages. You walk through a tropical rainforest, a desert and a coral ocean under one roof each, and watch the safari herds from the edge of the savanna. An easy day out with children.
Bruges & Ghent
A medieval city that survived intact — canals, cobbles, a belfry you can climb and chocolate on every corner. Add Ghent on the way and see two of Belgium's finest cities in one day.
Roermond outlet
The biggest designer outlet in the Netherlands, two hours from Amsterdam. We wait with the van all day, so your bags go in the boot instead of on your shoulder.
