The NYS Academy of Trial Lawyers invites you and your guest(s) to join our delegation for a journey to the marvelous Holland. ***Space is limited and book early for early bird discounts.***
We start our journey in the 17th century capital of Holland - Amsterdam - a marvelous city full of unparalleled museums, fine dining, unique architecture, and diverse nightlife. We continue to The Hague (Den Haag) - the political heart of the Netherlands as well the Center of International Law and home to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) among other influential legal institutions. Those with additional time can see Rotterdam and the iconic windmills of Kinderdijk.
Besides fascinating education for lawyers and non-lawyers alike, Holland's remarkable urban planning makes for an incredibly pleasant "street view" experience with charming boutiques, cafes and fine dining abound. And of course, no visit to Holland is complete without an immersion into Dutch cuisine. Our group meals will be selected for their elevated culinary experiences ensuring we make the most of every meal and taste the best of Holland's traditional and contemporary cuisine recognized for its purity, high quality, and honest presentation.

Please Note: This program will require high-intensity walking on sometimes uneven cobblestone streets and stairs. Participants must be able to walk unassisted.
