AMSTERDAM / ALKMAAR
AZ Alkmaar or simply AZ is a rising star of Dutch professional football with superb facilities for travelling groups to enjoy.
Alkmaar only 20 miles outside Amsterdam is known as the city of cheese, but that only part covers what this football town has to offer. It has a beautiful old centre with many historic monuments, great shopping districts and countless welcoming terraces, cafes and restaurants for every budget. Alkmaar also has a range of interesting museums, including the Stedelijk Museum, Beer Museum, Beatles Museum and naturally the Cheese Museum.
All EcoSports tours are individually tailor made. The services highlighted below are typical of what we include in our packages, however we can accommodate other specific requests. For groups travelling from Asia, Australasia or North America a ‘bucket list’ football experience trip to BVB can be combined with other destinations in Germany or professional clubs just across the border in Holland or Belgium.
