Free Nature Walk in Delft with Roamee Pro

Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided nature walk route in Delft. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Nieuwe Kerk and royal tombs — a 15th-century Gothic church housing the mausoleum of William the Silent and all subsequent Dutch royals, with a 108-meter tower for panoramic views, Oude Kerk (Vermeer's burial place) — a leaning 13th-century church where Johannes Vermeer is buried, with a 75-meter tower tilting nearly two meters and beautiful medieval stained glass, Royal Delft pottery factory — the last remaining original Delftware factory from the 17th century, where artisans hand-paint the iconic blue-and-white pottery using traditional techniques, plus hidden gems like Hofje van Gratie — a 17th-century courtyard almshouse open to visitors, with a peaceful garden hidden behind a street-level doorway and Botanical Garden of TU Delft — a small but beautiful university garden with rare plants, greenhouses, and a cafe, free to enter.
