Your Own Holland. Haarlem, the Coastal Dunes and the North Sea

5.0
(2 reviews)

8 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

It is one of our favorite tours. We designed it for everyone, who is tired of the city bustle; and for those, who do not have a lot of time, but wish to see as much as possible.

We will meet you at the train station in Haarlem. We will visit the magnificent main square, The Cathedral of St.Bavon, the meat guild, picturesque courtyards (hofje).

On bikes through the dune reserve with fantastic views we will head towards the North Sea up the road, which goes down. Don't be surprised, this is not a figure of speech at all! The bike paths are perfect here, and not a soul on them. If the bike ride is not for you, we can go by bus. It is as picturesque as the bike ride. Along the way we will stop in the National Park to have a picnic there. If we will be lucky, then we will see rabbits, foxes, deer or the highland cattles! And we will definitely see the North Sea! Let's go!:)
