Our Highlight tour of about 1,5 hours (± 6 kms) takes you along the most important and interesting sites in Maastricht. This nice route in one of the oldest and most beautiful cities of The Netherlands leads you along squares and watermills, over city walls, along small picturesque alleys, old town gates and through different parks. Our tour which is nearly free from traffic, is really worthwhile!

During several short stops you get an extensive explanation about the sights, hear some anecdotes and we'll give you hints to enjoy the city best after the tour as well.
