This city tour also can be also combined with the Dutch windmill and polder walking tour, which is being done on the outskirts of the Leiden city.

Leiden is also characterised by the world famous Leiden university buildings, mansions and museums with great exhibitions. For the travellers from the USA, Leiden has a special significance because of the Pilgrim fathers, who lived here in the 17th century.
