Take a winter stroll in the late afternoon, because Gouda is at its most beautiful as darkness falls and a serene atmosphere takes hold. This is the perfect time to join a walking tour led by the Gouda Guides Guild. Let yourself be guided past illuminated monuments and enjoy the beautifully decorated streets and alleys. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to admire the illuminated stained-glass windows of St. John’s Church from the outside. In just one hour, you’re guaranteed to see the highlights of Gouda!
