Tour description
In Delft, you stroll through intimate cobbled streets, along quiet canals and past centuries of history. This is the hometown of Johannes Vermeer, the city of William of Orange, and the birthplace of world-famous Delft Blue. Small-scale, authentic, and deeply Dutch.
Then comes Rotterdam. Almost completely rebuilt after World War II, Rotterdam is bold, modern, and constantly reinventing itself. Striking architecture, wide avenues, and a skyline unlike any other city in the Netherlands. During the tour, you will visit one of the iconic Cube Houses with your guide. Together, both cities show two completely different sides of the Netherlands.
This is a private tour, so the pace is entirely yours. The tour usually takes around 4.5 hours, but our guides are flexible and happy to adapt the program to your interests and schedule.
