It was more entertaining than factually accurate. The guide was well spoken and friendly. I was dissapointed when I discovered that we had been misinformed several times on the tour.

We enjoyed our walking tour with Paula. She was very kind and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the history of the city and the university and churches. We enjoyed the exploring of the old and new canals and learned about the reason the canals in Utrecht are differently constructed from those in other parks of the Netherlands. Very enjoyable tour.

Our guide wasn’t very good. More facts would make the tour more interesting, and better speaking abilities would be helpful as well.

It was a good, basic historical tour of Utrecht . My favorite part was walking along the canals and getting to see the inside of a house and the room that connects to the canal .

Our guide, Lisa, was absolutely great, so knowledgeable, lovely and had lots of recommendations. She really shared her love for Utrecht and showed us all the most beautiful spots. We did a few of her recommendations later and they were all great.

The unknown church that you will miss if Jeffrey didn't show us. And the Belgium pub that used to be a church. And the story about Adrian!
