Overview

  • Three cities that could hardly be more different: Golden Age Delft, modern Rotterdam and cheese town Gouda, in one private day.

    • Private guide for the whole day, the same guide in all three cities
    • Lunch in Rotterdam, a visit inside a Cube House and a cheese tasting in Gouda
    • Transfers between the cities included; pick-up from a location of your choice can be added

    In Delft, you walk past centuries-old facades and canals, the leaning Old Church and the Prinsenhof, and hear about Vermeer, Delft Blue and the New Church, final resting place of the House of Orange.

    Rotterdam rose from the ashes of World War II and looks nothing like Delft or Gouda. You see the Markthal, the White House and St. Lawrence Church, the church that survived the bombing, and step inside one of the Cube Houses.

    In Gouda, you explore the town hall, the weighing house and the St. John's Church, and end the day with a cheese tasting.

Activity itinerary

Markt

  • 20m
Your tour starts on Delft's Market Square, in the heart of the city. Here stands the second-tallest church in the Netherlands. Who is buried underneath it? Your guide tells you all about it, and about the statue on the square and the striking old town hall.

Old Church

  • 20m
You are now in Delft's old beer brewing quarter. Where did all the brewers go? You also see the Old Church, perhaps the most recognisable building in the city. How old is it exactly, and why does its tower lean?

Museum Prinsenhof Delft

  • 20m
This place played a decisive role in Dutch history: the Father of the Fatherland was assassinated here. Your guide tells you the storey.

Gemeenlandshuis van Delfland

  • 20m
Along the Oude Delft canal, you pass the richly decorated facade of the Gemeenlandshuis. What is this building, and why was it so important?

Armamentarium

  • 20m
You head to the south of the city, past a large former armoury and an office of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). You learn about Delft's role in the Golden Age of the Dutch Republic. Nearby, you see the exact spot where Vermeer stood when he painted his View of Delft.

Rotterdam, Station Blaak

  • 35m
After an 18-minute train ride, you arrive at Rotterdam Blaak, the UFO-shaped station in the market area where the city has its origins. Your tour of Rotterdam starts here.

Loetje

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
You have lunch at Loetje together with your guide. Lunch is included in the tour price.

Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk

  • 20m
Close to the modern Markthal stands a 14th-century church whose tower miraculously survived the bombing of Rotterdam. Today it is mostly used for events. You learn about the church's history and about a famous man who was born here: Erasmus.

Markthal

  • 20m
This building has become an icon of the city. You go inside the impressive Markthal (Market Hall), with apartments on both sides and food from all over the world inside. You will at least taste some Dutch cheese! And don't forget to look up at one of the biggest artworks in the world.

Witte Huis

  • 20m
Next is the most prominent building in the Old Harbour area: the White House (Het Witte Huis), the oldest skyscraper in Europe, dating from 1898. You learn about its significance to the city, and if you look carefully, you can still see the marks of German bullets. Your guide tells you all about it.

Kijk-Kubus

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
You have probably noticed them already: the Cube Houses. These quirky homes by Piet Blom were designed in the 1970s, built in the early 1980s, and follow the idea of a 'village inside a city'. You go inside one of them, and the entrance fee is included in the tour price.

Gouda

  • 30m
After a 20-minute ride, you arrive in Gouda.

Rijksmonument De Visbanken

  • 20m
De Visbanken is where fish was cleaned and prepared in Gouda, as early as 1588. You learn about this charming spot and enjoy the view.

Sint-Janskerk

  • 20m
This is the longest church in the Netherlands (not the tallest!), with construction starting in 1272. You learn about the building and its history.

Museum Gouda

  • 20m
You see the former St. Catherine's guesthouse, which now houses Museum Gouda.

Waag (Weighing House)

  • 20m
Next is the historic weighing house of Gouda. For centuries, farmers from the surrounding area came here on market days to have their cheese weighed.

Stadhuis Gouda (City Hall)

  • 20m
You see Gouda's charming Gothic town hall and learn more about its history and significance.

Kaasbar Gouda

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
You end the tour with a small cheese tasting in Gouda.
