Overview

  • Discover the stories behind The Hague's grand facades on this private walking tour.

    You explore the political and royal heart of the Netherlands with your own guide: the Binnenhof, Noordeinde Palace, the Mauritshuis, and elegant streets and squares like Lange Voorhout, the Plein, and De Passage.

    Your guide brings the city's history to life with stories of William of Orange, the House of Orange, and Johan de Witt: the statesman who ran the Dutch Republic at its height, and met a violent end right here in The Hague.

    Along the way you also see the Mauritshuis, home to Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring, and lesser-known gems like the Escher Museum (in a former palace).

    This is a private tour, so you set the pace. By the end, you will understand The Hague in a way most visitors never do.

    And if you have a special interest in a certain topic, just let us know.
