Full Day Private Tour of The Hague, Delft and Rotterdam

On this full-day private tour, you will discover The Hague, Delft and Rotterdam. See the highlights of all three cities together together with our passionate guide. Lunch and transfers between the cities are included. Forget about Amsterdam! During this tour, you will see three totally different sides of the Netherlands. From classy political The Hague and quaint old Delft to modern dynamic Rotterdam. You'll dive into the Dutch Golden Age and get to know modern Dutch society at the same time. Be prepared to see some royal palaces, our national parliament, charming canals, old churches, Delft Blue pottery, national historical sites, fascinating architecture, tall skyscrapers and much more. See you soon! You can do this tour both ways: starting in The Hague or starting in Rotterdam. 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.

I will meet you here, introduce myself and tell you something about the Mauritshuis and its history. Among others, this museum has the most famous paintings of Johannes Vermeer inside, both made in Delft of course!

We will briefly walk onto the square within the parliament complex. Here I will tell you about the significance and history of this place.

We will walk through Het Plein ("The Square") and take a moment to look around and talk about the statue that we see, Willem van Oranje: the father of the fatherland. Our current king is a direct descendant of him. We will see him again today!

The Hofvijver pond is situated in front of the parliament building and the prime minister's office (the little tower!). You will learn about the significance of this place and some funny histoy.

The statue of Thorbecke next to the Hofvijver is quite interesting. This statue has to do with our constitution! You will hear more about it.

This is the Champs-Élysées of The Hague. Quite a nice street! We will walk a bit and pass multiple embassies, an art museum, the temporary senate building, a statue gallery of the Dutch heads of states and some more interesting (royal) buildings.

We will see the Grote Kerk ("Big Church") of The Hague. What is that stork doing on top of it? Let's see!

Another statue! This is the only head of government of the Netherlands that has been eaten by an angry Dutch mob! That sounds a bit weird, but you'll find out what happened.

We arrive here by car and we enter the city through its only gate still standing: the Oostpoort ("East Gate"). After a 5 minute walk, we will arrive at our lunch place. on the Beestenmarkt square

We have arrived at the Beestenmarkt ("Animal Market"). This is the coziest square of the city and the ideal place for us to have a lunch and a drink! There is enough to choose from. In the past, this square had quite a different function though.

Next up, we are passing by the first catholic church that was built in the center of Delft. There is something funny about the two towers... Also, it is standing on the spot where Johannes Vermeer used to live and make his paintings.

Now that we are on the Markt ("market") square, we see the second-highest church in the Netherlands: our royal family is buried here. Why in Delft actually? If you want to, I can get you a ticket to climb the tower. Be warned, it is quite a climb!

On the same square, we can see the old town hall of Delft. It is (partly) one of the oldest historical buildings of the city, dating to the 13th century. Next to being a town hall, the building has also served as a prison for many centuries, with one particularly famous prisoner!

We are now in the old beer brewing quarter of Delft. Where did all the brewers go though? 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!? Well, I happen to know!

We will have a little peak into the inner court of the former residence of Willem van Oranje, the same place where he was shot! There is another statue of him there, but this one is life-sized. Let's see if you are taller than him!
