Discover Arnhem
My name is Jordi and for a few years I have lived in the Netherlands, where I work as a guide. In these years I have traveled in every corner of this country, and now I am dedicated to show the beauty of some of the most unknown cities, thus sharing my passion for history with visitors.
Tour description
Arnhem is synonymous with class and fashion. The capital of the Dutch province of Gelderland, it is also known by many for its role in the history of the Second World War where one of the fiercest and most important battles of the conflict took place.
In the past, Arnhem was also the favorite city of the Dutch elite and upper class, not for nothing is it also commonly known as the 'Little Beech of the East'.
Without forgetting its past, the city today offers us a lively center to walk through, exploring its many historic buildings, green areas, or enjoying its shopping streets.
