The walk takes 1,5 hours.. 

Price: This is a 'Free Tour'. At the end of the tour, you can decide for yourself what you think the tour is worth, and what you pay!

Language: This city walk is in Dutch. Every Saturday at 12:00, a second guide is also present to accommodate an English-speaking group. And from April through October, an additional guide is available on Saturdays at 14:00 for a German-language tour.

You can sign up on the A Guide to Leeuwarden website. Because we are currently walking with smaller groups, the tours fill up faster, so we recommend signing up in advance. This also allows us to assign an extra guide if necessary and ensures we don't have to disappoint anyone. Click here to sign up.
