About this activity

Walk in Vermeer's footsteps through Delft, then see his work up close at the Vermeer Centrum.

• Private walking tour of about 2.5 hours

• Entrance tickets to the Vermeer Centrum (with audio guide)

• Entrance tickets to the Old Church and the New Church

From the Market Square, your guide takes you to the places that shaped Vermeer's life: where he was born and lived, the Old Church where he is buried, the Hooikade, where you look at the city from almost the same angle as his View of Delft, and the Vlamingstraat, believed to be the location of The Little Street.

After the walk, you visit the Vermeer Centrum at your own pace. It stands on the site of the Guild of St. Luke, the painters' guild Vermeer belonged to, and shows reproductions of all his paintings and explains the symbolism and techniques he used.

The tour starts and ends in the city center. Pick-up from a location of your choice, like Amsterdam, can be added.

Ideal for art lovers looking for context and depth.
