Delft, The Hague and Madurodam Half-Day Trip from Amsterdam

Take a fascinating afternoon tour to see Holland in a Nutshell at Madurodam, a famous blue pottery at Delft and go for a drive through the former capital, The Hague.

Your scenic guided tour starts with a visit to the picturesque town of Delft to tour Delftse Pauw, one of the famous Delft blue potteries. The blue-and-white pottery became famous as a 17th-century duplicate of Chinese porcelain.

From Delft you will continue your journey to The Hague, former capital of the Netherlands, passing such famous sites as the Houses of Parliament, Peace Palace and the Binnenhof.

Next you will visit the famous miniature town of Madurodam – Holland in a Nutshell. The canal houses of Amsterdam, the Alkmaar cheese market and parts of the Delta Works are all replicated in minute detail on a 1:25 scale. Windmills turn, ships sail through the harbor and trains travel across the city on the world's largest miniature railway.

On the way back to Amsterdam you will pass the seaside resort of Scheveningen, with its beautiful beaches.
