Grote Markt - Grote Markt Cathedral - main square, famous for its huge amount of fabolous sightseeings, such as Weight house; Town Hall; The Butchers’ Guild Hall; Museum of modern art; St. Bavo Cathedral, where 10-year-old Mozart played on the former largest pipe organ in the world. Let’s find out more about each building and sculpture on this lovely square and, if we are lucky enough, we will definitely try some Dutch delicacies on the farmer market, that happens to here every Saturday;

Zuid-Kennemerland National Park - 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!

This is one of the tours we love the most. It’s ideal for those seeking a break from city life as well as for those short on time but eager to explore as much as possible.
Our meeting point is the Haarlem train station. We’ll tour around the impressive central square, visiting landmarks such as the St. Bavon Cathedral, the meat guild, and the charming courtyard homes (hofje).
We’ll cycle through a dune reserve with splendid views en route to the downward-facing road to the North Sea - it’s not a metaphor, but reality! The bike paths here are impeccable, and rarely busy. If cycling isn’t your style, we can always take the bus which provides the same scenic experience. We’ll pause in the National Park for a picnic. If luck favours us, we’ll spot rabbits, foxes, deer, or the highland cattle! And a view of the North Sea is guaranteed! Let’s embark on this journey!:)
