Hi, I am Eric. Born and raised in the western coastal region of the Netherlands, historically named "Holland". So you have decided to come to the Netherlands and you want your visit to be nothing less than an unforgettable experience? You have come to the right person! An experienced knowledgeable traveler myself, with a passion for history, arts, architecture and great food, I will be delighted to be your private guide and driver. Whether you have just a few hours 'stop-over time', a full day or even several days at your disposal, I will be happy to prepare a fully tailor made itinerary for you in order to make your stay memorable. Have a look at my various tours, get inspired and let me know your specific wishes! Strolling through the streets of old towns and cities with their ancient churches, townhalls, monumental houses and marketplaces. Where time seems to have stand still for centuries. Going from city to city we will, wherever possible, be driving through the Dutch countryside, through green meadows and over winding river dikes: To your left, a few meters below the road, breathtaking views over the lowland 'polders' populated by grazing cattle, to your right the lazy wide river…We will see old farmhouses, windmills, canals, old locks and ditches, proof of the dutchmen's watermanagement skills throughout the ages. On the horizon we can already see the looming contours of yet another interesting old town which may be our next stop…! You will see, feel, experience Holland in it's pure essence. We will go off the beaten path and avoid the crowded tourist traps. You will experience the authentic unspoiled Netherlands and see the things that can't be seen when travelling on a tour bus. Please note I offer maximum flexibility in all my tours. If, for any reason, you wish to change program, this is always possible. Even during the day itself. This is your tour! Transportation in a premium luxury sedan is included in all tour prices. You will travel in sheer comfort in my airconditioned Lexus LS 600 hL. In your own pace, with plenty of time to absorb the overwhelming and fascinating beauty of the Netherlands. For groups of 4-8 passengers I can rent a Mercedes van at additional charge. Please contact me for a quotation. I can hardly wait to be at your service! Eric 10 plus years experience as a tourguide in the Netherlands and Belgium. Transportation in a premium Lexus LS600hL (up to 3 travellers) or a rental Mercedes van (4-8 travellers). Registered Professional Private Hire Driver with a commercial Drivers License.

This full days' tour starts in the very heart of modern Rotterdam, city of striking contrast between old and new. One moment you will find yourself centuries back in time in the picturesque old port of Delfshaven (where in 1620 the Pilgrim Fathers set sail for America!), next we will be visiting the hypermodern Markthal (a covered food market), the famous Cube Houses and lots of more. Delft is without doubt one of the finest old cities in the Netherlands. Its lively historical centre, with its beautiful monumental houses along canals, old churches and a gracious City Hall (1618), is definitely a must see. Off we go to The Hague! This fascinating court city is seat of the National Government and residence of the Royal Family. On our agenda we have the Binnenhof (House of Parliament), Paleis Noordeinde (Kings' working palace), the Vredespaleis (Peace Palace) and more. We will also have time to stroll through one of The Hague's elegant shopping streets and/or to visit one of the many interesting museums.
After picking you up from your hotel, the airport, cruise terminal or elsewhere, we will be travelling comfortably by car from one site to another. We will explore the various highlights of our trip by foot (easy walks). We start in Rotterdam! Old Port of Delfshaven, Markthal and Cube Houses, Witte Huis, Veerhaven and more. Next we drive through the countryside (approximately 30 minutes) to Delft: Walking through the historical centre, visiting the Old and the New Church, Prinsenhof Museum (optional). Visit Delft Blue Pottery Factory (optional). We leave Delft and follow a short countryside road (30 minutes) via the Leidschendam windmills to reach The Hague: Parliament Buildings, Mauritshuis Museum (optional). King's Palace Noordeinde (including visit to the shopping area), Vredespaleis (Peace Palace). Please remember, above itinerary can be fully customized according to your specific needs and interests! Total duration: approximately 8 hours
