Our 2027 Netherlands trip is now closed.

553586858_1325953339092631_292759899188799327_n.jpg

​Travel through the places, traditions, and landscapes that helped shape Pella's story.

As we sail through the Netherlands, we'll explore the culture, history, and heritage that influenced Pella's founders and early settlers. Along the way, Pella Historical Museums & Tulip Time Executive Director Jessi Galligan will share stories connecting each destination to Pella's Dutch roots - from Dominie Hendrik Scholte and the Secession movement to windmills, tulips, and traditions that continue to define our community today.
