Voor dag 1: Boek een GRATIS wandeltocht

Een lokale gids neemt je 2-3 uur mee langs alle belangrijke bezienswaardigheden en verborgen pareltjes. Het is 100% op fooien gebaseerd. Gidsen verdienen alleen wat je aan het einde geeft, dus ze geven elke keer het beste van zichzelf. Passievol verhalen vertellen, insider tips, restaurantaanbevelingen die je niet online vindt.

Doe dit op je eerste dag. Je raakt bekend met de stad, leert de geschiedenis en krijgt persoonlijke aanbevelingen van een local voor de rest van je verblijf.
