Overview

The historic royal tour takes you on a journey, exploring historic castles and palaces located in North Holland, Utrecht, and Gelderland.

Away from the crowded Amsterdam city, you will be taken first to the beautiful and grand 'Paleis Het Loo'( 75 -90 minutes drive). This 17th-century summer palace was renovated and reopened in 2022. You will be able to visit the Palace, Garden and the Stables (Entrance fees included).

After visiting the Paleis Het Loo, we will explore the lesser-known castles in the region of Baarn. These include Castle Groeneveld (garden/surroundings), Castle De Hooge Vuursche (view from the outside), Castle Sloterdijk (view from the outside), and a few others.

Finally, we will visit the 13th-century castle Muiderslot. You can enjoy the view of the castle from the outside and if time permits and if you prefer, you can enter the castle by paying a fee of €15 PP directly.

After the visit, we will drop you back at your hotel or any other place in Amsterdam.
