Delft surprises you all year round! Our city walks are informative, practical, relaxed and welcoming. We stroll through the streets, along the canals and royal squares. This tour will be your best introduction to the city!

Delft is a unique historic city in the Netherlands. It's where our Father of the Nation was murdered, where the Delft blue pottery is painted and where famous painter Johannes Vermeer worked.
