Maastricht is Marvellous - I loved the city of Maastricht. It is well worth a visit. You can easily spend a day exploring the museums, churches and shops. The highlights of the trip were seeing the highest point of Holland and the view where Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands meet. My guide was Pedro and he was fantastic. Very informative and knowledgeable. Honest and welcoming. A true professional. My driver was Mo and he was kind and friendly.
