5.00Our guide was Joop, a retired architect. He guided us through the old town of Maastricht for two hours with a very good knowledge of the city's history, humor, and a unique perspective on things. We can recommend the tour without any reservations.
A pleasant and educational visit.

5.00Members of Neos Heusden-Zolder visited the historic city centre of Maastricht. The medieval streets, the Vrijthof, the town hall and the imposing St. Servatius Basilica give the city an almost timeless charm. What is particularly striking is how relaxed the atmosphere remains, even when it is busy. The pleasant tour by our guide Jos and his relaxed explanation made our visit a special experience. Visiting this city feels warm, welcoming and rich in culture — exactly what you expect from a city with so much history.

5.00Gos was an amazing guide and led a very fun and informative city tour. He was able to give us a real feel for the city with interesting stories and a great sense of humor. Gos's orientation in this half-day tour gave us plenty to explore on our own for the rest of the day. Definitely the way to go for first-time visitors.
