On the market for over 25 years, this 2-in-1 guidebook rightly claims to be “Simply the best all-in-one guide to travel and life in Holland.”  With just under 500 pages, Here’s Holland is a veritable treasure chest of Dutch gems. This delightful travel companion takes readers on an incomparable journey throughout the country – province by province.

For both visitors and residents alike, this comprehensive guide is presented from an insider’s point of view. Written by British expatriate author Sheila Gazaleh-Weevers, and updated with American expatriate editors Shirley Agudo and Connie Moser – all three long-time residents of Holland – the book is full of tips, practical advice and a wealth of helpful resources.

Here’s Holland informs readers on where to go, what to see and where to stay, from houseboats and hotels to castles, and gives recommendations for favourite restaurants. Each chapter details well-known and less familiar attractions, historical sites and interesting tour routes, ranging from world-class museums to picturesque villages and idyllic landscapes dotted with the requisite windmills.

Readers are also privy to inside information on characteristic Dutch culture and customs, local markets, crafts and products, bicycling and shopping opportunities, sport venues, international clubs, and much  more.  There is a chapter on great things to do with the kids, another on beaches, and a handy, quick-reference section – as well as a yearly calendar of festivals and events throughout the country.

No other guidebook covers so much, so well. Written with warmth, humour and cultural insight, Here’s Holland is the indispensable guide for both international travellers who want to explore every Dutch nook and cranny, as well as newcomers or expatriates who want to quickly feel at home in the Netherlands.

Here’s Holland is now available at bookshops, department stores, and online, at the retail price of € 27,50.
