Leiden Old Town Walking Tour
Arrive at Leiden Station, meet your tour guide, and head to the Old Town. Walk through the streets of the Old Town and check out the windmills, old city gates, market square, the district where Rembrandt grew up, the majestic St. Peter's Cathedral, and Leiden University. Find poems written on the city walls and hidden courtyards of the Hofier Asylums. Walk along one of the most beautiful canals in the country and across a delightful bridge. Then, just like Winston Churchill, sit on the historical steps of Leiden. Learn about the history of the country, the windmills, the era of Rembrandt, and the lives of scientists, pilgrims, kings, and inhabitants of poorhouses. Get to know about the tulips of the Netherlands and why they are famous. Try delicious local meals. Depart for your hotel after the tour is over.
