Veerle, the best tour guide, but you have to go to Dordrecht, Netherlands to find her.

We had a Viking Cruise and our shore excursion in Dordrecht, Netherlands on 17 June was a walking tour of the town. Our tour guide was Veerle and she was excellent! I believe she is the best tour guide I have ever had. She was very knowledgeable and passionate about Dordrecht. She intertwined a lot of information with stories and humor. She kept our group moving and engaged. I loved her approach, her knowledge, her passion and her humor.

In doing research about the history of the Netherlands, I became really curious about Dordrecht, and particular stories about it being spared in the St. Elizabeth’s day flood. Our guide brought the history of the city to life. He was both informative and funny, regaling us with local lore. He showed us interesting architectural features, scenic views and even had tips for places to shop and directed us to a fabulous lunch spot. Highly recommend.
