About this tour
This session shows Beestenmarkt on a warm evening, moving from its busiest terraces to a quieter corner bar a short walk across the same square. You see how quickly the square fills once the weather cooperates, and hear how it differs in character from the more central Markt. It is a short, relaxed look at one evening spot.
We start where the square is busiest, then move to the quieter side for a calmer conversation. I point out specific bars rather than describing the whole square at once, and take questions as we go. A short list of the spots follows afterwards.
It suits anyone deciding where to spend an evening in Delft away from the main square. It also pairs well with the Oostpoort session earlier in the day.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way

Itinerary
-
Welcome and sound check 5 min
The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Delft before heading out.
-
Beestenmarkt terraces 15 min
The camera opens on a square filled with terraces, and I explain how it fills earlier than the Markt once the weather turns warm.
-
A quieter corner bar 15 min
In a quieter corner of the same square, you see a smaller bar with its own regulars, and I point out how different it feels from the busier terraces a few steps away.
-
Your questions 7 min
Time to ask anything about Delft: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Stroopwafel and Binnenstad, worth a slower look.
Good to know
- A stable wifi or mobile connection makes the picture smoother than a shaky one.

- Times are shown in Amsterdam time, so check the time where you are before you book.
- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 10 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
Questions about this tour
What will the session cover?

What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Is this suitable if I do not drink?
Yes. Say so when you book and the guide will focus on the atmosphere and venues rather than the drinks list.
