Fancy an unforgettable experience that literally shows the Netherlands from above? Then book your tickets for THIS IS HOLLAND Amsterdam, the spectacular 5D flight experience on the IJ in Amsterdam-North.
A unique 5D flight experience
THIS IS HOLLAND Amsterdam is no ordinary museum or film screening; it is an immersive experience where technology, images and feeling come together. In this 5D simulator you fly over iconic places such as the Amsterdam canals, the Wadden Sea, Kinderdijk and the tulip fields of Keukenhof. The flight is so realistic that you literally feel the wind and smell the scent of fresh grass as you glide over the Dutch landscape.
The experience consists of four sections that together last about one hour. In the first two rooms, you will be introduced to the history and geography of the Netherlands: how the country was formed from water, how dikes and polders came to be, and how the Dutch fought their battles with the sea for centuries. Then step into the Flight Experience itself – a 9-minute flight that surprises and moves visitors from around the world.
