Great Tour in spite of the tain - Kevin was a remarkable tour guide, inspite of the pouring rain, he found shelter at every corner and was able to keep us entertained while educating us on Delft’s fascinating history. Only Recommendation would be to provide more explicit info on how to find our guide in the reservation confirmation as with the rain, all the tour guides were huddled in the shelter of the church entry… it was shear chance we found kevin quickly Thx Bob and Deb

Great Tour to know the city and a must to do - The walking tour is a must to do activity. There is so much history in Delft that without our knowledgeable tour guide Kevin we wouldn't have enjoyed the town as much as we did. Kevin was very knowledgeable and ensured that he interacted with everyone. He answered all our queries and made the whole walking tour quite fun and enjoyable. Loved it and recommend everyone to try it for sure.

Beautiful city, great tour - This was an informative and fun tour that brought our mixed-age group of 10 all over this gorgeous city. Worth getting here from Amsterdam and doing this walking tour. For lovers of history or just better getting to know a new place, this is a great service.

History beyond what you find on the internet - My teenage daughters and I enjoyed the broad overview of historically important people and places of Delft. We heard about the obvious figures you can look up on the internet. In particular our guide, Kevin, shared small stories of interest like how the covered canal was cold and dark and therefore used to store butter. Another story was that at the end of the day the one animal slaughter house rang a bell to give notice that unwanted scraps were available. Dogs were among those who’s responded. These details made the tour especially interesting for my group. When the tour was over, we felt like we’d returned to modern times after a visit back in time, like we woke from a dream.

Fancy a tour round Delft?......ask Kevin of Do Delft - Kevin was a really knowledgeable guide. As we were the only two bookings on that day we ended up with a private tour. It was a most enjoyable experience. Kevin really 'sold' the area for us. He was also most helpful in booking an evening meal for us. Can't recommend him enough. My husband uses s mobility scooter so Kevin took us the most suitable route around the city's landmarks.

You can always trust that Kevin knows everything about Delft! - I was very lucky to book this walking tour with Kevin, our tour guide. The group is very small, only three of us. However, the quality of the tour was still very high. Kevin almost tailored our tour to meet our curiosity and appetite. We had a lovely time walking and chatting around Delft. His knowledge base is solid. There is almost nothing he does not know about Delft. I would sincerely recommend this walking tour as a quick access to the history of Delft.
