Delft, The Hague and Rotterdam Guided Day Tour from Amsterdam

Discover the Netherlands beyond Amsterdam on a full-day guided tour of three very different cities: royal The Hague, historic Delft and modern Rotterdam. Start in The Hague, the seat of the Dutch government and home of the King. On a walking tour through the centre, see the Binnenhof, where Dutch politics has been decided for centuries, beside the Hofvijver pond. Drives past Noordeinde Palace, the King's working palace & Peace Palace, home of the International Court of Justice. Next comes Delft, the city of Johannes Vermeer. Visit Royal Delft, the last remaining 17th-century Delftware factory, see how the famous blue-and-white pottery is still painted by hand. Then enjoy free time to have lunch & wander the canals. End day in Rotterdam, rebuilt after the Second World War as the Netherlands' city of bold architecture. See the Cube Houses and the Erasmus Bridge, then step inside the Markthal, a huge arched food hall with one of the world's largest artworks painted across its ceiling.
