No. Happy to explain;
Our guides are paid per given tour, not at an hourly rate. For this reason, we can’t give a discount if the tour is shortened or altered in any other way. We believe that our prices are fair and competitive, plus the guides also have to travel to & from the meeting point and are unable to take other shifts on the half-day of your tour.
We advise not to shorten the tours, two hours for a walking tour is a perfect time to get a quality tour at a relaxed pace. If you still desire to do it in less time, we are happy to give you the best tour possible in the requested time slot.
Instead of giving discounts, we offer our tours at competitive prices. We are transparent about these costs; they are required to cover our expenses for offering a quality tour.
We don’t work with commissions, as an independent tour company we work without affiliates, sponsors or commission-based travel agents. This is how we keep our prices competitive and our recommendations honest.

Take Me To Church
With its long history, dating back before Roman and medieval times, the city has played a major role in Dutch religion. The majestic architecture of the city’s churches reveal the rivalry between different groups in the historic Roman Catholic community. Gaze at the Gothic towers of Saint John’s Church, the Romanesque St. Servaas Basilica and the Basilica of Our Lady.
City Of Carnival
When the first Roman Catholics settled along the Meuse, after which the city is named, Carnival was first introduced into the Netherlands. Nowadays, the whole year revolves to the celebrations that take place after the (forgettable) fasting period every February. Learn about the religious influence that Maastricht has had across the country and what to wear to the annual fest.
The Origin Of Maastricht
Maastricht is named after the Maas River that flows through it. The city’s strategic location along the river led to its development as a Roman settlement and later as an important trading hub. Find out how the city was shaped alongside the most important river in the Netherlands.
