Discover the unique blend of history, modernity, art and nature that Arnhem, Netherlands, offers in this all-encompassing 3-day itinerary. We're about to dive into thrilling journeys through time, stare in awe at vibrant Dutch artworks and get intimate with Mother Nature herself in one of the finest parks in the country!

Day 1 - Touching Base with History

We'll kick off our adventure in this fabulous city with a visit to the Arnhem Open Air Museum. Here, we'll immerse ourselves in Dutch history, culture and the good old days of yesteryears. Who knew time travel was a thing, eh? Picture yourself biking through the enchanting roads right out of a 19th century Dutch painting. From there, we'll whisk ourselves into the horrors and heroism of World War II at the Airborne Museum. It's like going back in time, only without the war part, of course. We'll wrap up the day by treating our taste buds to some scrumptious Dutch cuisine at one of the local bistros. Perfect eh, to eat and walk in the shoes of the people who once trod these storied corridors?!

Day 2 - Art in Heart, Nature in Part

Day 2, and we are navigating our way into the world of art. Let's pay a visit to the Kroller-Muller Museum, known for one of the largest collections of Vincent van Gogh's works. It's not every day you get to see those swirly starry nights that were once just fevered flashes in a master's mind, right? After an art-filled morning, wait for it, as we're heading outdoors to the beautiful Hoge Veluwe National Park. It's a dreamy landscape of woods, heaths, grasslands and sand dunes. Isn't that where beauty and tranquility meet? Let’s wrap up the day, exploring the local streets, catching a glimpse of Arnhem’s nightlife. Who said the city is only alive during the day?

Day 3 - Modernity and Shopping

On our last day let's embrace Arnhem's modern side. We begin at the Willemsplein, a bustling place with modern architecture around. Can you hear the city's pulse in the air? Let's pop into some fashion boutiques at the Modekwartier, a hub for Dutch fashion designers. A little retail therapy never hurt, right? After all, what's a trip without some souvenirs. Lastly, we'll head to the Rijnkade, a riverside street full of cozy restaurants. Ready to lift your glass for one last Dutch ‘Proost’ (cheers) to an unforgettable adventure?
