Discover Delft and Gouda on a half-day private tour. You will get to know two beautiful historical cities that both played a major role in Dutch history.
First up, you'll visit Delft, a picturesque town full of centuries-old facades, squares, churches and canals. Discover the city of Johannes Vermeer, known for its Delft Blue pottery, the final resting place of the Orange family, and its top-rated Technical University.
Then you'll go to Gouda, with its charming town hall, fascinating weighing house and impressive church. You will explore the old city center, and your guide will tell you all about it.
You can do this tour both ways: starting in Delft or starting in Gouda. You can also choose to be picked up and dropped off at a location of your choice, like in Amsterdam. And remember: It is you who determines the pace of this tour.

What To Expect
Markt
Here in the center of the city, we will find The second-tallest church of The Netherlands! Do you know who's buried underneath? I'll tell you all about it. Also learn about that statue of a man, and the stunning old town hall.
Old Church
We are now in the old beer brewing quarter of Delft. Where did the brewers go? We will also see the Old Church, perhaps the most recognizable building of the city. How old is it exactly and why is it so skewed? Who knows.

5.00George did a great job of walking us thru the highlights of both cites and the transportation in between- he was informative about Dutch life and nationalism and allowed flexibility for rests shopping and snacks in the markets if we wished- helped with train to get back to Amsterdam at the end

5.00Had a great time yesterday during our tour of Delft and Gouda. The guide knew a lot and adapted the tour to our pace. Both towns look fascinating and feel more 'real' than Amsterdam (where we're staying). Afterwards, we bought some cheese, of course...
