Vermeer’s birthplace and a true gem, Delft sits between The Hague and Rotterdam in the country’s southwest. The city’s name comes from the Dutch word for digging, fitting since canals are a highlight here. Others include the 13th-century Old Church, the 15th-century New Church and the Prinsenhof, once home to William of Orange and now a museum. Delft has long been a center for fine ceramics, and traditional hand painting methods can still be witnessed at Koninklijke Porceleyne Fles.

This was an amazing tour - highly recommend! I've taken many private tours around the world and working with Sarah was a top notch experience. I took this tour with a couple of friends and we had a great good time - Stan was our guide and he was amazing. We learned a lot about the museum, the key pieces like The Night Watch and we also learned a lot about Dutch culture. I look forward to visiting Amsterdam once again so I can take more of Sarah's tours!

We travelled by train to Amsterdam and only saw one windmill - went past too quickly to get a photo. Zaanse Sch.. is a site where working windmills and other traditional Dutch working buildings have been brought together in one place. Plenty to see and do. Visiting inside of windmill was fascinating. The working clogs museum showing how they were traditionally made and more recent "industrial" processes was also worthwhile.
