4 Star Places To Visit in Flevoland Province, The Netherlands (50)

4.0 Walibi Holland (1.672 reviews)
- Good but one big issue
Spent More than 3 hours Amusement & Theme Parks

I like walibi fright night. We went this year with four people. Only thing is that no where on the online tickets was written that you couldn’t have face paint. We got nicely make upd but we found out at the door that it wasn’t allowed. They did not provide us with any make up remover or anything except for a rag that would usually be given for washing windows. It was so rough that my eyes have been burning through out the whole day and after some wind got in and made me tear up, the water made my eyes burn so much I had to close them. Now it’s been a few days and it’s clear that the skin on my eyes has been ripped off by that rag and they burn like crazy. I suspect to have bruises around the areas in the next couple days. If it’s not allowed to wear accessive makeup that takes away attention from the actors then provide make up remover and proper things to remove makeup safely!!!! See more..
4.0 Batavia Stad Amsterdam Fashion Outlet (618 reviews)
- Optimal Shopping Outlet
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Spent More than 3 hours Factory Outlets • Shopping Malls

The outlet has a great selection of brands, which is quite convenient for those who value their time and not wishing to spend an entire day wandering along the shopping streets. Also, the shops are designed in an authentic Dutch style. Astonishingly for the Netherlands, the parking is quite cheap. See more..
4.5 National Aviation Museum (Aviodrome) (510 reviews)
- Fantastic museum!
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality Museums

A beautiful exhibition about the start of flying to flying into space. Lots of airplanes on display like a Lockheed Constellation or a Boeing 747 (outside). Many volunteers who worked at airlines can tell you lovely stories about the planes or the work they have done. It looks us around 3 hours to see the exhibition with a small break at the restaurant. For 7,50 euro you can get a day ticket for the parking across the museum. See more..
4.0 Oostvaardersplassen (420 reviews)
- A day of sunshine and colorful new bird sightings
National Parks

Taco was our guide. He provided us with explicit directions to this preserve, met us at the train stop, provided a spotting scope , transportation via personal car to over 5 local habitats & could bird by sight and ear. Easily understood and spoke English. We quickly were able to see chiffchaffs ,tits, even a Bluethroat & Ouzel. Both my sister and I marveled at the abundance of species presented on this lovely clear day. I think even Taco relished his time birding. His email of sightings identified over 60 birds from grasslands, wetlands and trees from these "low land" countrysides. I personally am a beginner to birding, but was thrilled at our good luck weather, the bird activity and the challenge to my abilities. My sister marveled at the experience during our first time in the Netherlands. These 4.5 hrs. were a highlight of our 10 day stay . We were saddened to say "goodbye" to this delightful guide and extended an invitation to visit Va. Bch, Va. or/& Tucson, Az. See more..
4.5 De Orchideeen Hoeve (378 reviews)
- Fun family day
Tuesday: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Gardens

We love animals and had a great time watching the wide range of animals here. The gardens were stunning — my teenager loved all the good photo ops for social media. Plan to stay for half a day — that way you can relax and watch animals interact. Staff was super nice. See more..
4.0 City Mall Almere (341 reviews)
- Nothing to be jealous of Amsterdam market
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Shopping Malls

Almere is a city you can find literally everything. The City Mall is an amazing place with a big variety of shops and it doesn't have Amsterdam's crowds. Most of the time you will find English speaking employees working so you feel comfortable wherever you are. I have to point that Almere has a specific place you can find all restaurants from different places of the earth (there are more of course, so check my other reviews too). See more..
4.5 Batavialand (330 reviews)
- a must see
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Ships

Reconstruction of a 17th century trading ship called Batavia, which sank in 1628 on its first voyage. At the Bataviawerf the ship is reconstructed in authentic ways.

- Great day!
Spent More than 3 hours Nature & Wildlife Areas

Had a great day here, we rented their bicycles as the park is quite large. First we saw the village where people are recreating how people used to live including straw houses, very gardens etc. Than we did the full circle by bicycle and saw many animals. So many storks with young. We had coffee and cake in the restaurant. Great day out. See more..
4.0 De Kemphaan (155 reviews)
- A green area in Almere which offers space to the Ape foundation and a city farm
Parks

De Kemphaan is a green area where there are several things to do, there is a botanical garden, there are play areas for kids, there is a city farm, a restaurant and the headquarters of the ape foundation (stichting aap). I went here with my wife a few times when I was still living in Almere, we would go to the farmers market, we would visit the farm animals, visit the apes of stichting aap (the access to all is for free) and have a drink at the restaurant.... next to the restaurant there is also a botanical garden and there is plenty of space to walk around in the forest that surrounds the area. If you want to see the Chimpansees you might want to check out first the site of stichting aap, as you can only see those with a group and you need to reserve a place in advance. If you are in the Almere area it is nice to visit this place, but in all honesty I wouldn't go to Almere just to visit this!. See more..
4.5 ZOO Almere Jungle (132 reviews)
- Level access to all areas within Grounds, Car Park and Restaurant, eating area.
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Zoos

4.0 Museum Schokland (113 reviews)
- A great museum and lovely cafe
Tuesday: 11:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality Museums

This small museum is very well done. It describes the encroaching of the sea and subsequent mitigation efforts. There are relics from thousands of years BCE. There is enough written in English to be able to understand it all. The little cafe was magical on a warm summer day. The food was delicious; there were good options for all in our group and the setting was lovely in a courtyard. The cafe and gift shop staff were all very friendly and helpful. We went there because I wanted to experience driving over one of the long dikes in Holland. That was fun too. See more..
4.0 Stichting Aap (113 reviews)

4.5 Waterloopbos (54 reviews)
- Fascinating
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Spent 2-3 hours Nature & Wildlife Areas • Hiking Trails • Forests

The Netherlands are well known for their expertise in water management and Waterloopbos is the site of a former laboratory where large scale testing of flood defences and dams was carried out, for both domestice and international clients. Although the laboratory has long since gone, the models remain and a forest has evolved among them. There is plenty of parking and a cafe (although we didn't try it) and 3 well marked, self guided walks of varying lengths. Information boards describe the models in Dutch and German, with a brief summary in English. We visited on a hot day and it was lovely and cool among the trees, a very tranquil walk. Fascinating. See more..
4.0 Dorhout Mees (53 reviews)
- Very nice 80's style hotel
Tuesday: 7:00 AM - 1:00 AM Golf Courses

This hotel - which is located in the very middle of nowhere - is quite awesome if you ask me. Probably built in the 80's and hardly changed ever since. Service was good. Staff was friendly. Rooms were quite small but very nice, even with small seperated toilets and a small bathroom in the hallway with a bath in it. Quite funny if you ask me. The hotel was not only a hotel but a complex were you could golf and 'kleiduif schieten'. I didnt eat in the restaurant so I don't know if they have a good kitchen. See more..
4.5 De Nieuwe Bibliotheek (51 reviews)
- Excellent facilities
Spent 1-2 hours Libraries

I was amazed this library is 12.5 years old - it looks and is amazing! Facilities for quiet study, reading or having a coffee. See more..
4.0 Exposure (48 reviews)
- Worth a detour
Tuesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent < 1 hour Monuments & Statues

I am a huge fan of Antony Gormley, living relatively close to 'Another Place' another of his installations near Liverpool, so planned a detour via Lelystad so we could see it. It did not disappoint! Situated on a narrow breakwater, the giant crouching figure truely is exposed, surrounded by water on 3 sides. It is clearly visible from Lelystad and the Houtribdijk dam. If you wish to see it close up, there is a small car park nearby, it is then a 500m walk along a path that is wheelchair accessible. Well worth a detour! See more..
4.5 Wooning Aviation (45 reviews)
- Pa vliegt
Tuesday: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Private Tours • Air Tours

Mijn vader had vorig jaar een half uurtje gevlogen bij een andere aanbieder. Het voordeel was dit jaar dat de piloot, de Haas, niet uitgebreid het vliegtuig ging bespreken maar direct met het vliegen begon. Een leuke sympathiek instructeur die goed weet door te pakken. Mijn vader heeft genoten.
Jammer genoeg was niet geheel duidelijk hoe de organisatie om zou gaan met het verzetten van afspraken. Stel dat iemand op de dag die in de agenda staat zich niet lekker voelt. Kan de afspraak dan nog verzet worden ? Het is tenslotte een behoorlijk bedrag dat je er voor neertelt. Maar zo werd verteld: omdat het om een boeking gaat via een tussenpersoon konden zij daar ook niet erg duidelijk over zijn. Die tussenpersoon deed soms wel eens moeilijk over het verzetten van afspraken. Dit kwam mij een beetje vreemd over. Het telefonisch onderhoud verliep wat stroever dan ik had verwacht. Dat liep bij de concurrent heel wat beter. See more..
4.5 Agora (38 reviews)
- Not a great cinema
Tuesday: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM Theatre & Performances

The seats aren't that comfortable and the 3D glasses make the movie a bit blurry somehow. The snacks on the other hand were good. See more..
4.0 Bezoekerscentrum De Trekvogel (33 reviews)
- Fantastic educational stop-off point on a walk or drive
Spent 1-2 hours Visitor Centers

This is a great place to go - it's very educational with a huge amount of information about how Flevoland was created and some of the wildlife that has been re-introduced into the polder. The displays are great and information is very good, the only downfall is that i the information is not in other languages so you need someone to translate for you if you don't read/understand Dutch. The volunteers and staff are always very friendly and you can have a cup of tea or coffee for a couple of euros and even buy some great jams and preserves made by local people. See more..
4.5 Belevenissenbos (32 reviews)
- Out in nature with the children
Spent 1-2 hours Nature & Wildlife Areas • Parks • Hiking Trails

If you are not afraid of wet and dirty children, this is a top attraction. In the open air, nature, water sand, wood and just being busy for hours. The children love it and learn a lot. See more..
4.5 Harderwold Golf & Events (29 reviews)
- Heerlijke dag gehad
Spent More than 3 hours Golf Courses

What makes the best and nicest golf courses in the Netherlands the best? We believe this is more than just years of existence and many holes. That's why we offer more than that!

With a contemporary brasserie, several (covered) terraces and a large green area for various activities! See more..
4.5 Theatergezelschap Vis a Vis (28 reviews)
- Very cool show!
Spent 2-3 hours Theaters

Great people, funny show and nice ambiance! We went to see the show Mare that was for me surprisingly funny. I can be a bit tough for young children, for adults definitely worth a visit. See more..
4.5 Marker Wadden (24 reviews)
- Wow! Paradijsje ...
Nature & Wildlife Areas

Met Natuurmonumenten op pad. Boot vooraf online gereserveerd (driemaster zeilschip) om 10 uur vertrokken van Batavia haven. 1 uur later op dit paradijsje: lekker wandelen, heel veel vogels, bloemen, zee, strand! Het was prachtig weer en dus extra genieten. Kleine strandjes, stilte en rust en vrijheid.
Er zijn ook excursies te boeken ter plekke. Prima georganiseerd allemaal!

Om 1430 u terug gevaren. Andere optie is 13 u heen en 1730 u terug.

Tip. Neem zelf eten mee, het paviljoen is net geopend en heeft allerlei drankjes en koeken en een zalig terras! Hoewel, op de boot heerlijke patatjes en appeltaart. See more..

- Nice bulding, enough to see to make it worthwhile
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours History Museums

4.0 V.O.C. Ship Batavia (23 reviews)
- Excellent fun
Ships

On this specific day there was a lot organised for everyone bog or small. There were pirates and a choir singing sea-faring songs, a bouncy castle and all sorts of games to do that relate to the old VOC times. Climbing and crawling thru the Batavia is an absolute blast. The nearby restaurant does nice lunch drinks and snacks. Really good day out for the family. See more..

The facade board above the main entrance has a symbol of Amsterdam ( 3 crosses = St. Andrew's Crosses). It's a reminder that Urk was owned by Amsterdam long time ago ( 1660-1792). The graveyard has a special story and it's called "Urk Skulls' Grave" The church was not open except on sunday. See more..

- Great experience to see Urk from the sea

We took 90 minutes trip (it cost 12,50 euro excl food) with the boat, seeing the wind mill park and Urk from the sea. We ordered fish and chips for lunch on the boat, it was delicious and cheap (compare to other restaurants in Urk). I believe the guide explains many interesting stories, unluckily, it was in Dutch. I hope to boat can provide something like brochure in English. See more..

- Para Sailing Hub
Parasailing & Paragliding • Gear Rentals • Boat Rentals

4.0 Golfclub Almeerderhout (10 reviews)
- Game of golf
Golf Courses

Great course. Long par 4s+ 5s demands good driving to stand a chance of getting on the green in regulation. The greens were divine - top notch quality for a 65 euro green fee. The clubhouse amenities are good with friendly staff and good food (tad expensive). I will be back See more..

Tijdens de route kan je bij verschillende boerderijen langs gaan waaronder Hanneke’s Pluktuin. En dat wilden wij wel daar even lekker op het terras wat gedronken & toen heerlijk tulpen wezen plukken op het land. Je kan 20 tulpen plukken voor €7,50.

- Heel erg leuk en interessant museum
Spent 1-2 hours Speciality Museums • History Museums

Dit museum gaat binnenkort op 25 juni 2016 open. Geopend woensdagmiddag en zaterdag. Heel erg leuk museum met een enorme collectie van gebruiksvoorwerpen uit het verleden. Zeer nostalgiek om o.a. Motoren, auto's, bromfietsen, maar ook cassettebandjes, grammofoons en fornuizen uit het verleden te aanschouwen.
Enorme dieselmotoren en boten uit het verleden zijn er te zien
Dit museum is echt een aanrader om te bezoeken. Ook voor kinderen is het leuk om dingen uit de jaren 50 en 60 te zien. See more..

Tuesday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Farms

Wat een leuke boerderij om langs te gaan. Ondanks dat de peren en appels nog niet goed waren om geplukt te worden mochten onze kinderen toch iets plukken. Heerlijke bramen die ze zelf in een bakje mochten doen. Afgesloten met een heerlijk koel perensapje van eigen boerderij natuurlijk. De boerderij winkel ziet er goed uit en de bediening was super vriendelijk! Echt een aanrader als je in de buurt bent! See more..
