Enjoy an exploration into Dutch history and craftsmanship. Pay a visit to Delft and the Royal Delft Factory, where spectacular ceramics have been produced for over three centuries. Your tour begins as you board your motorcoach for a short drive to De Porceleyne Fles (Royal Delft Factory), the Netherland's most famous delft factory. While others may turn to mass production, the Delft Factory painstakingly creates its famed earthenware using the same methods employed since the factory's founding in 1653. You'll take a guided tour of the factory and watch artists demonstrate the hand painting that makes each piece of Delft a work of art. Continue your tour to Delft city Centre, where you'll join your guide for a short walk through the streets of this charming 17th-century city. Although most famous for its porcelain, Delft is also the birthplace of painter Vermeer, and the site of William of Orange's assassination.
