Best way to see Gouda and learn about the city - This is a fun tour! Susan is very welcoming and knows lots of interesting trivia about the city! This tour is a great way to get acquainted with Gouda before deciding where to spend the rest of your time and easy to get to the tour location from the train station. I thoroughly enjoyed the two hours!
