*Totally local & small groups & no scripts* Having been a globe trotter for years myself, I respect and enjoy other cultures as much as I do my own. Today, i'd love to show you around my home town, The Hague! (or it's much beloved neighbour Delft) I will do it with lots of positive energy and a big smile on my face. There is something special about the liveliness of The Hague, especially contrasted with its beautiful beaches and parks. Even though I know so much about this town, I always find some new and interesting facts and iconic landmarks that keep me engaged and learning more. And Delft? With soo many interesting sights, so much history that connects to the city of Delft and the Netherlands as a whole, topping it off with a rich choice of restaurants, coffee places and lovely little boutiques...It's a magnet to me and it will probably have the same effect on you! I focus my tours to be all about enjoying The Hague and discovering what life is like in The Netherlands, but I am very knowledgeable about it's history too and love to share or take questions. I look forward to meeting you soon with ElswhereTours and sharing with you what makes The Hague and Delft so special to me!

I could have spent a whole week learning from Else and never get bored. It felt like I was watching a play, a living theater, and Den Haag was our stage. Else has a great passion for history and presents it in a very personal and contemporary manner. We experienced living history by reliving the history of Den Haag with passion and humor. We were somber when the place called for it, but we also laughed and had fun. It was an excellent experience with Else, and we had a memorable tour of the important places in this beautiful and significant city.
