The Netherlands: Beyond Amsterdam

I am a Brit and I have lived in the Netherlands for 33 years. I am now a registered citizen and this sympathetic presentation makes me feel proud to belong to this industrious nation.

After living in Holland for more than 18 years, two weeks ago I boarded a train to start a new life in Berlin, Germany. Sitting next to me was a very old Dutch man who was very warm, sharp and intelligent, we talked all the way until Hannover. When he stepped out of the train, only then I realised how bad I'd miss Holland. After all this years, they became "my people".

Can we just appreciate how witty this reply is: "You already are. Now you're better."

I come from a nice little farm town in southern Noord-Brabant and it always makes me sad that no tourists ever seem to travel outside of Amsterdam. the entirety of Netherlands is not Amsterdam, and there are so many other beautiful cities and places to visit in our country. thank you for making this video <3

Sitting back at home, enjoying the tour to the entire Europe. Thanks Rick. No need of visa. No expenses.

This is one of the better representations of my country, compared to those 'wooden shoes/windmills/tulips-videos'.

It is amazing to see how most of the people in the netherlands can speak english quiet fluently.

I am an American, but several of my ancestors came from The Netherlands, some by way of New Amsterdam, and some by way of the Midwest. I have always admired the culture of art, music and fellowship. It’s just fascinating! I really hope to visit Friesland and Noord-Holland some day, and maybe learn some of the Dutch language.

What an absolutely wonderful, wonderful nation, The Netherlands is. One of my all time favorites, length and breadth.

Finally a great video about Holland that's not about Amsterdam.

Hello Netherlands 🇳🇱 . You all have such a wonderful country.

Now i want to visit The Netherlands 🇳🇱!! Love from The Philippines 🇵🇭!!

Gorgeous architecture, beautiful landscape, rich history. All the best to you, Netherlands 🇳🇱 Greetings from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿

The way Rick describes a country makes you thirsty to visit that country.

I really admire the Dutch for being able to deal with floods and building up their country.

As a European, I really enjoy these videos, they remind us of our heritage, devoid of all the ailments of today's Europe's grim realities. To all the North Americans and other peoples watching this, this is how we view your countries, too... only the beautiful side! This is what traveling is about... going to somewhere unfamiliar enough that we can focus on only the best of it. Now the challenge is to replicate that at home.

I went for Summer in 2015, with my family, for a month. It was potentially the greatest experience of my life. So great that we ventured there again for another month the following year. Such a beautiful country with beautiful people. So kind-hearted and helpful. Almost all of the population that we'd come across spoke English, and fluent English at that too. The country boasts some fantastic museums. We explored Amsterdam many a time and explored a lot of the city. We explored some cities other than Amsterdam, of course; in fact, the exact same ones shown in the video, minus Zuiderzee. I think it's also worth mentioning how stunning the beaches are. Unfortunately, didn't get to swim, because it was the final day of our trip there, but the beaches were absolutely clean. I feel the beaches there are a little underestimated. I'll definitely visit it the next time I get the chance. Love you, Netherlands.

I love the Netherlands

I had a wonderful time living in Netherlands. Much love to people out there and the beautiful home they've built!

Rick is so unique in his presentation of these cities in Europe. I really love the historical information. Thanks.
