Getting its name from the medieval Duchy of Limburg (now split among Holland, Belgium and Germany and the birthplace of the infamously pungent Limburger cheese), Limburg is the Netherlands’ southernmost region. Many of the area’s best attractions are concentrated in the capital of Maastricht, but other sights include the 12th-century Valkenburg castle ruins, the 17th-century Eijsden castle, the 20th-century Glaspaleis (built next to a medieval church at Heerlen), and De Meinweg National Park.

Very well restored cathedral, which has evolved from Romanesque to early Gothic to full-blown Gothic - and has a lot of remarkable treasures on display.

Thanks to our stay in Roermond we discovered this beautiful nature reserve. Highly recommended for cyclists and hikers. Certain zones are quiet zones and therefore forbidden for cars, motorcycles and mopeds. Very well signposted paths for cyclists and hikers.

An unforgettable zoo experience GaiaZOO offers a breath-taking view of the world of animals and wildlife. In GaiaZOO you can travel around the world in one day; imagine you are in the African Savannah and get a close view of the world’s most beautiful animals like the mighty gorillas, enormous rhinos, stately giraffes, lightning-fast cheetahs and the king of the animals; the impressive lions. In the Rainforest you will discover all sorts of swinging and climbing monkeys; in the squirrel monkey forest they even climb through the trees over your head. GaiaZOO offers an unforgettable day trip for the whole family. Open every day of the year from 10.00 o ‘clock
Probably the most beautiful zoo to walk through in the Netherlands. Lots of greenery and no cages, only natural exhibits. Not the biggest zoo, we were there for 3.5 hours. There are lots of play areas for the kids, including an indoor dinosaur themed play ground.

Kasteeltuinen has vast, beautiful gardens to explore. There are rose gardens, tropical gardens, Japanese gardens, bamboo, Italian and the list goes on. All are delicately manicured and well kept. There is a huge crazy golf course that is included in the entrance fee. Lots of lakes and waterfalls too. We stayed about 3 hours and didn't see everything because the site is massive. We visited the house too. The interior was disappointing. We also fed some goats, chickens and Koi Carp. This is a place to visit on a dry day as 90 percent is outside. Kids go free in July and August, which is always a bonus! You can get cheaper tickets sometimes on Social Deal or the ANWB members' site. I plan to return to see the parts that I did not get to see.

I did the Fort Sint Pieter tour with Simone (only two of us on that tour, very personalized!) and then the North Caves tour with Matt (who also took us to the Nazi vault. Both tours were great and the guides really deliver the history in a fun way. The thought that went into the development of the Fort was brilliant, making it practically impossible to invade. The caves were also a wonder with the intricate system, the many uses, and the massive volume of ground that was moved to create that system. Loved every second of these two tours!

Do not miss this book store, it will be an experience you will never have again. The cafe at the back of the store is a perfect place to pause your day and take in the wonderful tea, coffee and treats. I can’t even explain the feeling you get when you enter this ancient church which has been restored to be a fascinating book store with thousands of books, music, magazines and loads of wonderful trinkets. A must see! Side effect is, you end up in the heart of Masstricht, a world heritage site, you won’t regret this visit.
