Highlights
- Saint Servaasbridge - Walk across this beautiful old bridge over the river to the old city center.
- Stokstraat - The Stokstraat used to be a street in a deprived area of Maastricht. Today it is a real gem. The street is full of nice small shops in the higher market segment and beautiful catering establishments. It’s a beautiful street where everything still breathes local history!
- Boekhandel Dominicanen - “The nicest bookstore I’ve ever visited.” Explore the large collection of books in this fantastic location and read your purchases on the terrace next door.
- Onze Lieve Vrouw Sterre der Zee Basiliek - Great Romanesque Catholic church with beautiful stained glass windows.
- De Bisschopsmolen - This picturesque watermill is located in the romantic Jekerkwartier. It is a great place to make pictures, right besides the wheel of this watermill.
- Helpoort - Vesting Museum Maastricht - It’s a striking 13th century gate with a stately facade and 2 towers in a former city wall.
- Basilica of St. Servatius - The church is believed to have been built on the grave of Saint Servatius and is considered to be the oldest surviving church in the Netherlands.
- Vrijthof - In the heart of the city you will find the beautiful Vrijthof. Around the Vrijthof are many historic buildings that remind us of the time when Maastricht was a religious center and a military fortress. This romantic and historic square is the largest square in Maastricht.

Highly recommended to visit a city - What a fun way to visit a city this was again. You get to places you wouldn't otherwise go so fast.
Previously done in Apeldoorn with children, this time with adults in Maastricht. Highly recommended.

Super trip - Highly recommended to get to know Maastricht in this way. Nice story and interesting assignments. We thought we knew Maastricht a bit anyway, but went to places we didn't know existed.
Between nicked by nice terrace and nice lunch in a restaurant unknown to us.
Nice that we could stop where we wanted in between , and then easily pick up the route again .
We will definitely do another trip in another city.

Former city guides enjoy a new view of Maastricht - I went with my sister. We used to work as a city guide for the city of Maastricht. But with this super fun Outside Escape experience, we got to know a completely different Maastricht. We really enjoyed it.

What an incredibly fun Outside Escape! - Very fun city escape from Outside Escape! Very fun and challenging questions and assignments. We were in Maastricht for a company outing and played in teams. It was sometimes really brain-bending and the qualities of each individual team member came in handy. The competition between the teams soon broke out, especially when we met each other :) Beautiful route, you see a lot of Maastricht during the game, known and unknown places. Highly recommended. We had a very nice day and will definitely discover a city this way again!

Fun pastime also with children - Nice city escape. Easy to walk, even if you have difficulty walking. Nice combination of a treasure hunt and at the same time getting to know the center without visiting the busy shopping streets.

Challenging way to discover the city - We play a city game more often. This time it was Maastricht's turn. It is a fun way to explore a city based on all kinds of assignments. The city game in Maastricht was also well put together. We found the assignments a bit too easy (we are used to a bit more challenge from other city games from Outside Escape). Tip: pen and paper.
