Keukenhof Garden, called Garden of Europe, 79 acres of a tantalizing tapestry of tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths with a rhapsody of colors is a dream. A stunning display of colors and meandering small canal-like waterways makes the park pure magic. It is one of the most visited destinations during the tulip season. However, being one of the popular destinations makes it crowded. A few tips can ease your trip.
Here is my mini-guide

Opening Hours: Keukenhof is open seasonally between March 20 and May 11, and the opening hours are 8:00 am to 7:30 pm
✦How to Get the Tickets. You can get the tickets from Kekunhof’s official website. or any other website
Adult =20 Euro

Tips: Getting tickets a week or 2 weeks before always helps you to get your desired or convenient time slot. Also, guaranteeing your entry at the gate is quite difficult as too many people in the lines.
Parks get crowded after 10 am. Getting the ticket earlier than 10 or later in the evening can surely help avoid the whirlpool of crowds.
Wearing comfortable shoes is a must ...as it requires walking and sometimes gets a little wet or muddy.
You need at least 3-4 hours to explore and enjoy the park
The Garden has a cafeteria/food hall since it’s crowded bringing food and water surely makes your job easier.
