Where to walk in Netherlands

  • Amsterdam (3 tours): A city built on a dam and a plan. Three great canals curve in a half-moon around a medieval core, lined with tall leaning merchant houses, and behind the elegant water lies the Jordaan, the crowded quarter once built for everyone the Golden Age left out.
  • Delft (3 tours): A small canal town that carried an outsized weight of history. Vermeer painted his impossible light here, William of Orange was shot on a stairwell and became a nation's martyr, and when disaster and imported porcelain reshaped the town, its potters turned out the blue-and-white ware a whole continent copied.
  • Utrecht (3 tours): The old religious capital of the Netherlands, stacked on a Roman fort. Its canals run far below the streets, with a second sunken lane of wharf cellars found nowhere else on earth, and above it all rises the tallest church tower in the country, standing alone since a tornado took the nave.
