I had been to This is Holland once before, but I hadn't seen the current, updated presentation yet. Our guests from Malaysia were also very enthusiastic to see our country this way on a day when it was raining heavily and our plans to show them towns along the IJsselmeer literally fell through. Due to a public transport strike, there were almost no visitors. It is definitely a great experience, not only for foreign visitors but also for people who live in the Netherlands and are often in Amsterdam. On days without strikes, This is Holland is only a few minutes away from Central Station via the free GVB ferries, which is also an experience in itself for foreigners.

Great presentation and impressive! The flight over Holland could be longer. Holland has beautiful coasts and cities as well. They should have focused more on this. On the next visit to Amsterdam, "This is Holland" will definitely be included again.

Well-organized, everything runs smoothly, no long lines, helpful staff. The program has changed (this was my third time there); it’s informative, and yes, the flight is still a pleasure—even on my third visit. My expensive sunglasses, which I’d lost, were waiting for me when I went to ask if they’d been found. They could just as easily have been “gone” for good.

THIS IS HOLLAND: 5D Ultimate Flight Experience was great!! It´s a must if you want to experenice Holland with all kind of senses, not only visually. Plus it´s very easy to reach, you only need to take a ferry from Amsterdam Central Station and then within 2-3 minutes of easy walk you reach the show.

Very friendly personnel everywhere, a lot to learn and see about Holland en its history. You can play a quiz with trivial questions, the shows are very interesting to watch, and the grand finale: flying over Holland in 5D is in one word magnificent!! This is absolutely a must see and must do!!
