    Gilbert was an amazing and funny tour guide. His tour was very interesting, and he kept everyones attention. Even tho the tour was almost two hours, it didn't feel like that. The highlight of the experience was walking through a part of the tunnels in the dark.

    Our tour of the tunnels underneath Fort Sint Pieter was the best part of our visit to Maastricht. Simone was our tour guide and she kept my children (5yo and 9yo) enthralled for 1.5 hours with her fast pace, engaging style, and plentiful stories. We got to experience walking in the tunnels in the pitch dark, we covered a lot of ground without being rushed, and the pièce de résistance was the dinosaur artworks, which my son loved. Really insightful, informative, and fun tour, and great value for money. Thanks Simone for taking the trouble to personalize our experience!

    This is a beautiful basilica church. It’s interior is not spartan, not even close (most Dutch churches are spartan).

    It’s a visit worth your time.

    The most beautiful city in the Netherlands!
    A feast for the eyes. And so clean!
    Everything In this top quality fairytale city is amazing. The architecture, the food and drinks, the shops, the people are very friendly helpful and jolly. It's just the best place to be. You'll never want to leave. (I'm living back here again after living all over Europe for 30 years; it's like being on a permanent holiday in your home town, so much to see do and enjoy)

    A square brimming with life throughout all days and evenings. During market time you could feel the pulse of the local population. The market is interesting in itself.

    This is one of the main gates of the old fortified city. It has not suffering the centuries and looks almost intact.

    It’s amazing to walk through that old gate where centuries ago people did as well.

    In the afternoon this is a nice place to eat a traditional pie. There are lots of flavors to choose ..... peach, cherries, blueberry ...... Very fresh from the bakery next doors.

    This is a beautiful old stone bridge that allows you to cross the Maas river. It’s pedestrian and bicycles only.

    Part of the bridge had to be destroyed and rebuild taller in order to let commercial shipping through.

    I recently visited the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht and was very impressed with the architecture of the building. It is a modern and elegant design that fits in perfectly with the surroundings. The museum has a large collection of old and contemporary art, which is very diverse and interesting. I particularly enjoyed the Ed Templeton exhibition 'Wires Crossed'. The staff was friendly and helpful and there was a nice café where you could have a drink or something to eat. I would definitely recommend this museum if you are in Maastricht and love art.

    We visited this with a group and had Rene Brouwers (appropriate name for a guide in a brewery :-) =Brewer in Dutch) to show us around.
    fascinating really !
    it is a trip back to the past and very vivid and colourful. the buildings are vaste and astonishing, packed with history and also a treat for Non Beer lovers.
    you see all, from the malt to the bottlery and even can see the private house where the last heir of Bosch lived until 2008 !

    at the end, of course, some beer tasting is possible in a very nice historic room, de Ridder zaal, named after the previous competition of the Bosch Brewery (funny, but logic, this is a non profit house and the Ridder Brewery is gone forever including the buildings etc and here some of their treasures are honoured with respect in this hall)

    go and visit, it is worth your time and you help the volunteers and the foundation to keep improving and keeping this heritage.

    Ascend.. 200 something steps.. Spiral stairs.. Narrow.. Traffic ascend and descend are through the same stairs.. Be mindful, hold your backpack instead of carry it on your back. Risk of squeezing yourself and others.. The person in front of you will set the pace, no need to rush.. Don‘t forget to breath.. Enjoy the beautiful view of Maastricht from the top.. Then do the above again on the way down.

    Stokstraaf once belonged to the poorest part of the city. But then, city planners decided to renovate the neighborhood. They turned it into a lovely part of Maastricht, with beautiful buildings and great shops. It is not cheap to buy here, but even without buying anything, it is worth going here.

    It’s a nicely laid out park alongside the old city walls. You can close enough tonronde the walls.

    You see a lot of the outside of the old city center.
