- World Heritage Kinderdijk - Our first stop for the day will be at the unique UNESCO world heritage Kinderdijk windmills. A system of windmills and pumps has been draining the water from the polder soil into the river for centuries. Over the years, the systems were improved, combining human wits, technology, and nature to work together to keep our feet dry, already for over 700 years! Admire the 19 original windmills in their stunning historical environment. You can enter a working mill to discover the personal stories of the millers and/or take a cruise for a better view from the water!
- Delft - The sights of Delft, with its canals, gables, and towers, are extremely picturesque. The town is a lot smaller than Amsterdam, but just as pretty (and most important: with less tourists). Delft is home of the world-famous Delft Blue pottery and a visit to the factory, where you can see the process of making the beautiful pottery, is included. After that, you will have time to explore the city center on your own or with our experienced guide to tag along, just as you please. See the famous churches and marketplace, home to Vermeer. As it is your day out, we can custom tailor the tour upon your wishes. In Delft there will be time to have lunch as well.
- Nieuwe Kerk - We will visit both the oude and nieuwe kerk in Delft, with the famous grave of William of Orange and many members of the royal family.
- Royal Delft - Koninklijke Porceleyne Fles - We visit the factory and flagship store of the famous royal Delft china. See the painters at work and enough time to buy your precious souvenirs for home!

Embark on a private journey that seamlessly blends gorgeous scenery with the rich history of Kinderdijk and Delft. Guided by our well-experienced hosts, Eva and Sarah, who are also proficient drivers!
We’ll start with a trip to Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage locale known for its 19 windmills that have been preventing the land from flooding for centuries! The tour includes a boat ride and an exclusive look into the mills and the pumping station.
Our voyage then continues to the quaint city of Delft, famously known for housing the revered Royal Delft Blue china factory! We’ll make a stop to explore the town’s canals and distinct gabled houses, alongside the ‘new’ and ‘old’ churches that serve as the final resting place of William of Orange and a multitude of other royalties. We’ll also have some time to grab lunch around the market square and the renowned town hall.
Before we return to Amsterdam, we’ll make a stop by the Royal Delft china factory and its main store, providing ample opportunities for souvenirs shopping!
