Two-day Delft tour: Unlock the artistic secrets of the Dutch blue pottery town

Two-day Delft itinerary Day 1: Explore art and history. Arrive in Delft in the morning and head straight to the Delftware factory. Here, you can watch artisans paint blue pottery up close, see how delicate brushstrokes create intricate patterns, and even try your hand at making it yourself. Enjoy a traditional Dutch stew for lunch at the factory restaurant and experience the local flavors. In the afternoon, visit the Nieuwe Kerk (New Church), a solemn Gothic building where members of the Dutch royal family are buried. Climb to the top of the church's towering spire for panoramic views of Delft. Day 2: Stroll through the charming city. In the morning, visit the Delft City Hall, an elegant Renaissance-style building with lifelike sculptures at the entrance. Afterward, take a leisurely walk along the canal, where colorful houses are reflected in the water. Rent a boat and enjoy the scenery along the banks. For lunch, choose a canal-side restaurant and order Dutch pancakes with fresh fruit and sour cream. In the afternoon, explore the Delft Market and pick up some local specialties like cheese and flowers. In the evening, enjoy a drink at a local pub and soak up the town's laid-back atmosphere. You can walk or cycle around the city. We recommend staying in a guesthouse in the city center for convenient travel and a taste of local life.
