Explore Utrecht, one of the Netherlands' best-kept secrets, on a delightful two-hour walking tour led by passionate locals.
We are Bram, Julian, Marta, Mirte, Koen, Maxime, Rikke, Julian and Holly. By day we work as a journalist, educator, facilitator and more. In our spare time, we take you through the city we love. That's not a marketing line, it's simply why we do this: because Utrecht keeps surprising us, and we want to share that.
On this 5.5 km walking tour, we take you through the lesser-known side of the city centre, alongside the canals, through quiet courtyards to end at the iconic Dom Square. No rushed commentary, no headsets, no crowds. Just a small group, good stories, and a city that rewards those who look closely.
- Duration: About 2 hours, perfect for a daytrip from Amsterdam
- Small groups for personal interaction and connection
- Start at Utrecht Central Station for convenience
- Optional add-ons available for a complete day experience
