What people are saying about Delft

Start the tour at the New Church, although you have passed by the Old Church before. It's a worthwhile visit if you're passing through Delft, but not absolutely essential to enjoy the day. There is not much queue at the ticket office of Igreja Nova, and booking in advance may be valid in terms of easy payment methods or organization of itineraries.

Onze gids liep prettig rustig. We kregen alle tijd. Meer dan genoeg informatie en uitleg. Voorlopig kunnen met alle adviezen van onze gids nog wel even voort in Delft.

The churches are nice but you have to add an extra charge to climb the church and see the panoramic view. Otherwise, the explanations were clear

If you like history this is great fun. The city of Delft is very atmospheric and cosy, Dutch... You really feel welcome
