Valkhof Park: Where History Comes Alive

Our tour guides love to regale visitors with tales of emperors and battles fought right where you're standing. Oh, and don't even get me started on the views – they're absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. Trust me, your Instagram followers will thank you!

Stevenskerk: A Gothic Masterpiece

Now, I'm not usually one for churches, but Stevenskerk? It's something else entirely. This Gothic beauty has been through thick and thin – wars, fires, you name it. Yet, it still stands proud in the heart of Nijmegen. Our guides will walk you through its fascinating history, and if you're lucky, you might even catch an organ recital. The acoustics in there are out of this world!

Kronenburg Park: A Green Oasis

Need a breather from all the history? Kronenburg Park is your go-to spot. It's a favorite among locals, and once you visit, you'll see why. Lush greenery, serene ponds, and if you're there in spring, a sea of blooming flowers. It's the perfect place to relax, have a picnic, or just people-watch. Our guides know all the best spots for that perfect nature shot!

De Bastei: Nature Meets History

Alright, history buffs and nature lovers, this one's for you. De Bastei is where the city's past and natural beauty collide. It's built into the old city walls and offers a unique perspective on Nijmegen's relationship with the river. The interactive exhibits are super cool, and the views? Let's just say they're worth every step of the climb.

Lange Hezelstraat: Shopping Paradise

I'll let you in on a little secret – Lange Hezelstraat is the oldest shopping street in the Netherlands. But don't expect your run-of-the-mill chain stores here. This street is all about unique boutiques, quirky gift shops, and cozy cafes. Our guides know all the hidden gems, so get ready to discover your new favorite shop!

Waalkade: Riverside Charm

Last but definitely not least, we've got the Waalkade. This riverside promenade is the perfect spot to end our tour. Watch boats sail by, grab a drink at one of the terraces, or just soak in the atmosphere. If you're lucky, you might catch one of the many events held here throughout the year.

But wait, there's more! On our tours, you'll also get to experience:

• The quaint Besiendershuis, a 16th-century marvel
