Itinerary

  1. Sint-Bavokerk (Church of St. Bavo)

    20 min

    We explain the story behind this impressive building that is of great importance in Haarlem. The building was more than just a church; find out why on our tour!

  2. Teylers Museum

    20 min

    Teylers Museum is the first and oldest museum in the Netherlands, located in Haarlem. Come and marvel at art, science, and history.

    How did we get it here? And who visited this place more than once?

  3. Spaarne

    20 min

    This river was of great importance for Haarlem and all the other cities in Holland; there was a tide schedule for boats.

    You could take a boat every hour to Amsterdam.

    It was slow, but way more convenient than a carriage. And you could bring everything.

    So, this waterway has a lot of stories and importance for Haarlem.

  4. Jopen Tap Room

    20 min

    As the churches are not as busy anymore, the Dutch have found new ways to use the buildings. A beautiful example is the Jopenkerk in Haarlem – a great place to go and taste beers after tours.

  5. Botermarkt

    20 min

    There is a lot to see on this square and various good reasons to either visit or avoid it. Join the tour as we explain all the insights about this square.

  6. Grote Markt

    20 min

    On the Grote Markt, we start and end the tour. There is a lot to see here, and even more on the tour, as we cover in this short list of attractions. Additionally, different guides take different routes and share unique stories.

    Join us on our tour to discover the true Haarlem.
