Haarlem is one of the most historical, rich and lovely cities of the Netherlands! Let’s figure out what secrets are hiding behind its quiet alleys and cozy canals! Strolling along the canals and watching magnificent city view and the working windmill, we will get to know more about history of this old merchant city. There are will be plenty of local sightseeings on our way, such as the humpback bridges, cozy yards-hofjes, old pharmacy, design stores and lots of street sculptures, but of course, we would not miss visiting main sightseeings too! Our road will bring us to the main square Grote Markt, which becomes especially busy on Saturdays, when the farmer market takes its place just here next to the majestic Cathedral and the Weight house. In addition, we will definitely visit one of the local design stores, famous for its incredible lamp collection. We would like to offer you some local beer, made according to an old recipe in brewery located in the church!

Swap the city for the beaches, dunes and wide-open spaces of Bloemendaal on this 4-hour guided bike tour from Amsterdam. Enjoy the scenery and sea air as you ride a pushbike around the picturesque shores and nature reserves of this beautiful region just north of Amsterdam. Pass historical houses, stop to admire a working mill, explore the lush coastal forests and rolling dunes of the South Kennemerland National Park; spot grazing deer and horses, and enjoy refreshments at a trendy Bloemendaal aan Zee beach club. All biking equipment included.

It is one of our favourite tours. We designed it for everyone, who are tired of the city bustle; and for those, who do not have a lot of time, but wish to see as much as possible. We will meet you at the train station of Haarlem. We will visit the magnificent main square, The Cathedral of St.Bavon, the meat guild, picturesquare courtyards (hofje). We will lose ourselves in alleys overgrown by flowers, and we will find multiple street sculptures and the 15th century brewery inside the church! 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!
