On our last trip we spent several days in Amsterdam, so this time we found Haarlem as something new. What a pleasant surprise! It is a beautiful, friendly, and very interesting city, with some history predating Amsterdam.

Summary:
My favorite part of this tour was learning the history of Haarlem and special historical stories of town. There are so many beautiful buildings to see as well as churches. My guide, Diana, was very knowledgeable and personable that I would come back in a heartbeat if I could!!
I saw so much in the given time frame and Diana even walked me to the train platform so I would not get lost.
