This tour will take you through the historical heart of Delft with an enthusiastic local as your guide, whose passion for the city is infectious. Experience the beauty of the historic Market Square, the tranquility of the churches and canals and the excitement of the city's young population.

All while walking along the canals of the quaintest city of Holland.

Expect to hear interesting stories and to get real insider tips that only locals know about! You will see and understand things that would otherwise go unnoticed.

What To Expect

Nieuwe Kerk

I will meet you here on one of the oldest market squares still in use today, next to the statue of Hugo Grotius. We will also end the tour here. The Dutch royal family is burried in this church (as is Hugo). It is the second tallest church of the country. You'll learn more about it!

Somewhat ambitiously, we scheduled this tour for 4PM after a trip down from Amsterdam and a morning tour of The Hague. But we were so glad we did…Robin was an excellent tour guide who knew Delft’s history (and present) like the back of his hand, and shared his knowledge with us in a very engaging manner. We also appreciated that he was easygoing and adaptable; there were three tourists in our group, including a senior citizen and a small child, so we needed to deviate from the plan a little bit once or twice and our guide made that easy. We have been on many walking tours in Netherlands cities, and this was one of the best. Highly recommended for efficiency, flexibility, and depth of information.
