Camels & Llamas? a Kid's Guide to Leiden, Netherlands

Leiden is the home to the Netherlands' oldest university, and it's the birthplace of Rembrandt. It is also someplace where a kid can be surprised, and where you can sometimes expect what is the unexpected! Leiden served as a stop off point in the 17th century for America's Pilgrim founders. The best way to get to Leiden today is by train. The journey takes 10-15 minutes from The Hague, 20 minutes from the Schiphol Airport, the main airport in the Netherlands, and between 30 and 40 minutes to get there from Amsterdam.
