Welcome in the most southern part of The Netherlands, very near to the Belgium and German border. I am born and raised in Maastricht, as a son of a brewer. So, a real local who knows how pleasant live is in the historical and vibrant city of Maastricht. Graduated at the Tilburg and Rotterdam University, but now retired and happy to show people the city, that I appreciate. Of course I know all the hidden gems and I can also give you an advice about restaurants and pubs. It is a privilege to live in this beautiful international region, not only for the landscape of the Limburg hills but also for the German town Aachen ( Charlemagne ) and Belgium town Liege ( Prince-Bishop ). I'm proud to show the region and do also tours in Aachen and Liege. And if you want I am happy to customize the tour for you. Please inquire for a quote. I'm an experienced tour guide for more as 5 years in different languages and different historical towns. I have no license to give tours inside the limestone caves.

See the most with the best tour in town by a local. Maastricht in the southern part of the Netherlands is after Amsterdam the second city in national heritages sites ( almost 1700 ). During our walk in the city ( max 2, 5 hrs. ) you will see a lot of these impressive monuments including churches, town-hall, remnants of fortifications, the André Rieu family-house, the old bridge, Vrijthof , Market- and OLV-square, Bisschops-mill and the charming Jekerquarter. You will experience how pleasant live in Maastricht is and how excellent the Maastricht University is integrated in the old town. We do the tour with small groups ( individuals, family, couples etc. ), but the tour is also a good experience for big groups, schools, associations ( up to 15 pers. per guide ). Ask for a customized tour to nearby Aachen or Liege. If you like a we do a nice coffee-, tea-, beer- or wine-break in a pub or on a terrace in summer. The tour can be customized to your wishes.

This was the perfect walking tour of Maastricht. Rene was one of the best guides we have had with Tours By Locals as his knowledge of the area was fabulous. He was very accommodating. When we return with our kids in the future we will most definitely enjoy this tour again with Rene.
Rene was great and gave us a lot of information and history! We would definitely recommend.
We highly recommend this tour. The guide and the tour were great, he has a lot of historical and cultural knowledge as well as a lot of energy and humor. We were a group of 16 colleagues and despite the fact that we had time constraints, places we were already going to visit, and the last minute booking, the guide adapted perfectly. So don't hesitate and book!
