I'm sure you do, but the time has come to visit it at home. Come with us, we're waiting for you!

Gouda

Gouda is one of the most beautiful towns in the Netherlands. A little paradise where cheese is the main protagonist. And we will get off the bus to get to know the historic centre. We will visit the gardens and the most important buildingsBut what about the cheese? Don't worry! We'll get to know all its secrets as we meander through the city, along streets such as Lange Groenendaal and Korte Groenendaal.

We'll tell you all about it! We will also pass the Town Hall and, if you are lucky enough to be there on a Thursday between April and August.... You will see the cheese market! Otherwise, you won't want to miss out on the sweet taste of Gouda, because we'll also tell you what stroopwafels are
