Hello everyone, It is a pleasure to introduce myself here. My name is Kevin and besides guiding I have many more fun hobbies. For example, I read a lot, especially historical novels, and I enjoy being in the kitchen and trying out recipes from various other countries. Once a year I also travel as a tour guide for a travel organization with mentally disabled people. This is always a great thing to do! After working as a rep, for more than 5 years, at several destinations in the world, I choosed to start guiding in Delft. I am a social guy and it is my hobby to work with tourists and tell them everything I know. Humor, practical information and facts are important during my tours. I am guiding now for more than 13 years. In those years I showed many tourists the beautiful city of Delft and the area around it. By the way: I have my official guiding certification! The area where I mainly guide is located around the cities of Rotterdam, Delft and The Hague. These cities have a lot to offer, but the surroundings are also beautiful. For a nice walk, but also for cycling. When I am free, I can always be found in this pleasant environment. On this website I have given some examples of possible tours. But there is so much possible! That is why I also like to make customized tours, with your wishes incorporated. I think it is great to put together a nice program with you, so you will have a unique experience during your holidays. Hope to see you in the beautiful Netherlands. ANVR licensed tourguide NA

Rotterdam is a modern port city, the city of 'don't talk but do'. Ultra-modern buildings are interspersed with chic squares and atmospheric streets. A visit to the famous hotel New York is a must, from where people left for America. We can still see ships arriving in the port! Delft is a unique historic city in the Netherlands. It's where our Father of the Nation was murdered, where the Delft blue pottery is painted and where famous painter Johannes Vermeer worked. The Hague is our parliamentary capital. This is where the parliament meets, the King works and the Peace Palace is located. My special knowledge mainly consists of historical facts and anecdotes. I have been a guide for 15 years and I am also well informed about current developments in this area. My added value consists of making you aware of hidden treasures. I've been around Rotterdam, The Hague and Delft region since I was born. My life was and is here. There are hidden gems in every city, but only a true expert like myself can show you!
Kevin is a fabulous guide with a deep knowledge of The Hague and Delft. We’ve done a fair number of private guided tours and Kevin hits the sweet spot of sharing just the right amount of information. He’s a great listener and flexible. He tailored our tour as he learned more about us and our interests. We strongly recommend Kevin if you’re looking to learn a tremendous amount about the towns with a relaxed and enjoyable guide.
Outstanding tour organized by Kevin for our group of 11! We worked together to outline our tour schedule with the cruise ship arriving and leaving port. Kevin is not only an excellent organizer and communicator, he is a knowledgeable and efficient guide who really knows what he is doing. My entire group rated Kevin and the itinerary as EXCELLENT and we recommend Kevin and TBL with the highest of confidence. Thank you Kevin for everything you did to make our tour to Delft and Rotterdam so eventful and satisfying. Dave Weekly Arizona
Kevin was absolutely terrific! The tour provided by Kevin was illuminating, interesting and informative. Our group was very happy with the different experiences Kevin's tour offered thoroughout the three cities which included great food and shopping. We highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in exploring Rotterdam and nearby cities.
We just completed our Rotterdam, Delft, and The Hague tour with Kevin and it was fantastic. He met us at our Rotterdam hotel and we had a good walking tour of the city. I was very concerned that I wouldn’t be able to complete the tour because of the tour length but Kevin was very reassuring. I am 75 but I did it. After seeing the main sites in Rotterdam, we boarded the train for a quick ride to Delft. What a beautiful old city. We went around the old part of the town and had a quick lunch before heading to The Hague. Again, the train ride was quick and efficient. My wife wanted to visit a yarn shop and no request was too much. We completed our tour and headed back to Rotterdam. Lunch and the train tickets were included. Kevin knew all of the history and important sites and tailored the tour for our needs. I can’t say enough good things about Kevin. I would rebook him in a heartbeat.
Kevin was very good - he provided us with alternatives when certain train routes were not available due to upgrading works on the tracks. We had a good chat on many things - historical background, ICC, etc. Would recommend him for a good tour!
We loved Kevin, it made our time in the beautiful city that much better

Public transport is well organized in the Netherlands. For that reason we travel between the cities by train. In the cities we walk or we use bus/tram. Both are included. If you prefer to travel by car, please let me know.
