In the NMM at the former Soesterberg air base, the past, present and future of the Dutch armed forces come together. See our impressive collection at first hand and experience for yourself the exciting stories of our armed forces at the biggest museum about the Dutch military! The NMM has the most extraordinary collection of tanks, aircraft, armoured vehicles and helicopters in the Netherlands! Each one of them is unique and has its own story. Personal objects and moving stories also come to life at the NMM. You will be amazed how the Dutch armed forces are interwoven with the world around you!

The Netherlands National Military Museum tells the story of the Netherlands Army and Air Force over centuries. It's only a couple of years old and definitely on par with the some of the worlds best technological museums; e.g. the Smithsonian museums in Washington. Well worth more than one visit, suitable for all ages.

Canals area

Reviewed By Rallie S - Stirling, United Kingdom

There are lots of cafes, bars and shops of all types (incl. antiques) along the canals, as well as more quiet areas, so there is something for everyone. Mostly it's less crowded than Amsterdam although in the centre it could get quite busy (beware of the cyclists). The old houses along the canals are beautiful. It's definitely a lovely walk.

We had a golf course with three. The course is very well kept. Great joy to play here. After that you can have a small lunch and drinks at reasonable prices

SpaSereen

Reviewed By Ike-rangel

My girlfriend and I find that this is the best spa in the area. But we believe the my should raise the prices, at the moment there are a lot of people going and not respecting the rules of silence. The staff seems not to take measures, so instead of feeling relaxed and quiet, it feels crowded and noisy.
The premises are very good and the food is ok. Not the best wine selection though.

De Midgetgolftuinen Lage Vuursche

Reviewed By Mir00987 - The Netherlands

We celebrated our son's birthday here with his friends and some family members. It is a lovely location. You are allowed to bring your own food and drinks (there is no on site restaurant or shop). Only downside: I find it too expensive, but have to applaud the fact that the birthday boy could play for free.

Rietveld Schroder House

Reviewed By bonsi7 - Bardolino

One-of-a-kind Rietveld house. All of the downstairs rooms have an external door. The panels that closed at the end of the day are fantastic, cutting off part of the external light. A 30 minutes' walk from the center of town should not put you off. Entrance is a bit expensive, but includes the entrance fee to the Central Museum (on the same day). The tour includes an audio guide backed up by a well informed live guide.

The 'depth garden' in Zeist is great for a relaxing stroll and/or for pictures on special occasions like wedding days. There is a pond and an old brick wall as special features.

Dom Tower

Reviewed By Antonija R

There is no better way to see Utrecht other than the Don Tower. I don’t get visitors from my home country frequently but as soon as someone comes I take him/her there. The Dom Tower has a history spread through several centuries but moreover it has a culture represented through 14 bells and old organ. It allows a great view over Utrecht and when the weather allows it Amsterdam can be seen.
