Small Group Alkmaar City Walking Tour *English*
Alkmaar is easy to enjoy on foot, but a good guide helps you see more than pretty streets and old façades. This two-hour small-group walk takes you from Koorstraat 7 toward Waagplein, with a close look at the history of a special church monument along the way.
I like the maximum of six people, which gives you room to ask questions instead of trailing behind a large crowd. I also like the personal touch promised by Canadian guide Jennifer, who has offered practical tips for other places in Alkmaar and beyond, plus small kindnesses such as postcards and help with a restroom stop.
The main consideration is the amount of walking. You need to cover about 3 to 4 kilometers continuously, and the tour does not include transport to Alkmaar. If your schedule is tight or walking is difficult, plan carefully.
