What to expect

Discover Leiden with an audio tour that guides you through one of the Netherlands' most historic and picturesque cities. During this self-guided walking tour, you'll follow the scenic Rapenburg canal, pass the impressive Pieterskerk, and climb the Burcht, a medieval fortress mound overlooking the city.

Along the way, you'll learn how Leiden shaped Dutch history as the birthplace of Rembrandt, the departure point of the Pilgrims, and home to the country's oldest university, founded in 1575. Rather than taking the fastest route, this tour leads you through hidden courtyards, narrow streets, wall poems, and charming corners that many visitors miss.

With spoken directions and an easy-to-follow map, you can explore at your own pace, pausing whenever you like to enjoy the city's canals, cafés, and lively atmosphere. Discover Leiden's famous landmarks, fascinating stories, and hidden gems while experiencing the city like a local.
