Haarlem: Personalized Private tour Highlights & History

Haarlem: Personalized Private tour Highlights & History

For more than 30 years, I have lived in Haarlem city centre. Ever since I moved to Haarlem, I have been interested in everything that happens in the city. You will always see me biking or walking throughout the city centre. From events and novelties to exhibitions, fashion and food. In addition, the history of Haarlem is very special and you will discover many beautiful hidden spots that I love to show you. What makes this tour distinctive is that I like to listen to your preferences. Do you want to hear more about history or art, do you want to discover the most special boutiques or are you more culinary-minded? I lovingly adapt my tour to your preferences to make it an unforgettable experience. Besides, I have the best tips for you for after the tour (hotels, shopping, bars, food, music, musea, hotel etc...) See you soon!

From Amsterdam: Antwerp & Ghent Full Day Tour

From Amsterdam: Antwerp & Ghent Full Day Tour

Discover the rich historical heritage, vibrant cultural life, and spectacular architecture of Antwerp and Ghent on a day trip from Amsterdam. Admire the Renaissance-style buildings of Grote Markt, visit the Cathedral of Our Lady, and see the famous painting "The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb." Begin your tour in Antwerp at Grote Markt, the main square, where you can admire the beautiful Renaissance-style buildings surrounding it. Be sure to visit the famous Brabo Fountain, which illustrates the legend of the brave hero who defeated a giant. Next, head to the Cathedral of Our Lady, a majestic Gothic masterpiece, renowned for housing several paintings by the great Rubens. Its towering facade and stunning stained-glass windows are truly breathtaking. Afterward, have the chance to explore the Diamond District, known as one of the world’s largest diamond trading centers. Stroll through its charming streets filled with exclusive jewelry shops and learn about the fascinating history that has made Antwerp a global leader in this industry. Continue to Ghent, a city renowned for its rich history and impressive architecture. Start the tour at the Castle of the Counts (Gravensteen), a medieval fortress that will transport you back in time. Explore its towers and walls while enjoying panoramic views of the city. Just a short walk away is the Saint Bavo's Cathedral (Sint-Baafskathedraal), a magnificent example of Gothic architecture. Here, admire the famous painting "The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb," a masterpiece of Flemish art. Stroll through the Main Square (Grote Markt), where the stunning historic buildings, including the Town Hall and the guild houses, will leave you speechless. Don’t forget to snap a few photos in this iconic spot. End your tour with a walk along the canals, enjoying views of the historic buildings reflected in the water. If time permits, take a short boat ride through the canals for a different perspective of the city.

Amsterdam to Haarlem: Private Day-Trip Experience

Amsterdam to Haarlem: Private Day-Trip Experience

Along with your friendly, local guide, enjoy an authentic Haarlem experience on a personalized tour. Explore this picturesque city’s history, culture, and fantastic food scene as you’re led down quaint streets (those off the well-trodden tourist trail) flanked by grand architecture. You'll be paired with guides that are passionate about the place they call home and who choose to spend their free time sharing it with like-minded travelers matched to them. Meet your host at Amsterdam Station (or directly in Haarlem) and begin to explore this university town, an enchanting hub of leafy courtyards, gabled houses, and monuments dating back almost 800 years. Walk along tranquil canals and explore Haarlem’s quaint cobbled streets, straight from the pages of a storybook, while marvelling at grand gothic-style churches and turning down the lesser-known streets and exploring hidden gems. Peer into cosy bars, fine cafes, and the unique stores that have given Haarlem a reputation as one of the world’s best shopping cities. Visit Molen de Adriaan, a traditional windmill and a striking feature of Haarlem’s skyline for centuries. See the monumental Grote Kerk, a Protestant church in the city center that’s home to a world-famous gilded organ and a treasure trove of medieval art. Join locals browsing stalls selling fresh produce, local cheeses, clothes, and antiques at Grote Markt, an authentic taste of the day-to-day life of Haarlem’s people, and admire the grand buildings lining even the quietest of streets. Of course, in a city famed for having the best museums in the Netherlands, it would be a crime not to explore them. The Frans Hals Museum is always an excellent choice. Your itinerary can be personalized according to your preferences. Once you’ve booked, someone from the local partner's team will be in touch so arrange any preferences or special requirements.

An amazing experience! Antwerp and Ghent are beautiful cities full of history. The guide was very professional explaining interesting details about each place. Everything was very well organized and the transportation was comfortable and punctual. I highly recommend it!

What a great way to spend a day! Both cities are stunning. In Antwerp I fell in love with the Main Square and its cathedral and in Ghent I enjoyed its picturesque atmosphere. The transport and organisation were impeccable. I would definitely do it again!

A wonderful tour to discover two jewels of Belgium in one day. Antwerp fascinated me with its architecture and vibrant atmosphere, while Ghent won me over with its medieval charm. The guide and the team made the day perfect.

We loved our personal tour. Our guide was knowledgeable, pleasant, and personable. Hoping to tour with her again when we are back!

Great tour! It was spontaneous, personalised for our interests, and we learned so much information in under two hours.
