Haarlem's Golden Age: Unforgettable Audio Guided History Walk

The app. on our phone was very easy to use and understand. The history of the city and information on the buildings was very helpful and interesting. We went at a leisurely pace, stopped for coffee and easily started back where we left off. The total time to visit all the sites was around 2 hours. Easy train ride from Amsterdam and short walk from train station to start of the walking tour.

When your in The Netherlands then on top of mind is a trip to Amsterdam. However, Haarlem is a better alternative. We you are on Airport Schiphol you can go by train to Haarlem (10 minutes ride). Haarlem has everything. Beautiful town with a lot of history. Do this walk and enjoy the culture of this city.

We stayed in Haarlem while visiting it, Keukenhof and Amsterdam. So we wanted an informative tour. While on the tour, it wasn't clear which building was being referred to, and we couldn't figure out how to rewind to hear things again. So when it just started as we walked to the station, we were already behind, and didn't know which building the tour was talking about. We just walked and walked, and when we did know which place the tour referred to, we often didn't care, as it didn't have any interest. I wish we could have cut part of it out, but that wasn't easy or possible. I had high hopes for this tour, which didn't materialize. We lost our one day in Haarlem, and should have investigated it ourselves.

What a beautiful place Haarlem is. This audio tour gave us direction and context to the history and relevance of many of the buildings as you wander around at your own pace. Loved this tour!

What a great way to conduct a audio guided walking tour!. Extremely cost-effective. Easy to download once you receive the company’s email. Four stars because of what it needs to be better: the guidance. I’m spoiled by the guidance provide by Waze and Google Maps. I found it difficult to proceed to each stop efficiently (and actually missed a third of the walk, mostly but not all my own fault), I would used this company’s products again without hesitation.

Great tour, great value. I don't like to walk with a guide. This is so relaxed and lots of information. We stopped for drinks and lunch along the way. It was a great informative tour. Great city.

There is so much within walking distance that our group was released from the bus and told when to be back. The locals were friendly and helpful when we got turned around. We saw the cathedral, shopped, and enjoyed an unstructured day.

Awful. Not normal tour through Viator. Tour guide was not able to handle Kings Day crowds and rain. Also, spent significant time talking to another tour guide while walking. Was not able to assist in finding a toilet.

Great tour, lots of interesting stories about the past and present. It gave an excellent insight of this beautiful city. I loved the fact we could walk on our own in our own pace. An absolute Must Do

Tekst en routebeschrijving duidelijk. Prettige stem ook. Op deze manier door een stad lopen is heel aangenaam: je kiest je eigen tijd en tempo en maakt je attent op gebouwen, beelden etc. waar je wellicht anders aan voorbij zou lopen.
