Overview

Discover Delft and Leiden, two quaint historical cities that have played a major role in Dutch history. Visit them both in this immersive 4.5 hour private tour. First up, you will see Leiden, known its stunning canals and classy streets. Step back in time as you explore its old center. The city that heroically survived a Spanish siege in 1574 is full of stories: it was the home of Dutch Master Rembrandt, the oldest university of the country, and the Pilgrim Fathers. Next up, you'll visit Delft, a picturesque town full of centuries-old facades, squares, churches and canals. The city of Johannes Vermeer is known for its Delft Blue pottery, the final resting place of the Orange family, and its top-rated Technical University. You'll be impressed by its charm. The transfer between the two cities is included and only takes 20 minutes. You can also do this tour the other way around.

Very insightful tour with a great guide

Published on Feb, 2025

Amazing!! Loved both cities and our tour guide Jocelyn was great. Very sweet and extremely well informed. We strongly recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning more about Dutch history in general, and Leiden + Delft in particular.

Great way to see Delft and Leiden

Great experience! Did this with my elderly mother and a friend of hers. Both cities were stunning and the guide was engaging and spoke English fluently.
