Ken,

The famous tulip gardens of Keukenhof are open daily from 08:00 – 19:30 from 24 March – 15 May 2022. It is a short window, but an absolute must see. So you may have to catch it next trip.

Totally concur with the Anne Frank House, but recommend you buy your tickets before you leave the states. It can get very crowded.

If you there over a Saturday, I highly recommend going to the Botermarkt in Haarlem. A wonderful market and a beautiful town. Short ride on the train from Central (train station) in Amsterdam. It is also the location of the Corrie Ten Boom House, which is better known as the Hiding Place. You may have read the book or seen the movie. Once again get tickets before going.

Which cruise ship company are you using for your Rhine Trip?
