“Els is a very entertaining tour guide, she does not bore you with numbers and facts, instead she knows to keep the attention by sharing interesting anecdotes and juicy details of the history of The Hague.”
Royal gossip tour
"GOSSIP IS CHARMING! HISTORY IS MERELY GOSSIP. BUT SCANDAL IS GOSSIP MADE TEDIOUS BY MORALITY."
So said Oscar Wilde's Lady Windermere's Fan in 1892.
Gossip, hearsay, tittle- tattle, scandal and dirt. All different terms for a frowned upon, but oh so pleasant form of communication.
Gossip and history are integrally related. Join me on this royal walking or bike tour for some of the best of The Hague's (historical) gossip and facts, royal hearsay and various interpretations of the past and present. As The Hague had many palaces, and oh so many royals and royal wanna-be’s, you will come home an Orange expert.
So, no need to whisper, but no guarantees of the truth either. Just shamelessly enjoy all the scandalous details while being made a 'confidant' and learn about The Hague and its nobility, royals and posh! (bike tour also includes Huis ten Bosch)
