Cicerones is a Dutch walking-tour operator based in Gorinchem, Zuid-Holland. The company organises guided walking tours across many Dutch cities, offering themed experiences such as hofjeswandeling (courtyard walks), vrouwenwandeling (women’s history walks), stadswandeling (city walks), street art routes and Jewish-heritage tours. Most walks are scheduled as 1.5-hour guided tours; several experience listings note a two-hour Jewish heritage walk in Amsterdam.
Each trip listing describes guided walks that highlight architecture, local history and personal stories — for example hofjes tours of Amsterdam, Leiden and Alkmaar; women-focused walks in Haarlem, Leiden, Utrecht and more; and urban explorations in Rotterdam, Utrecht and Den Bosch. Cicerones runs tours in over twenty Dutch cities, including Amsterdam, Haarlem, Leiden, Rotterdam, Utrecht and Groningen, and offers specialised routes such as street-art and Hendrick de Keyser monument walks.
The booking information and trip summaries emphasise small-group walking itineraries that visit landmarks such as Pieterskerk in Leiden, Jordaan hofjes in Amsterdam, and the Jewish Quarter in Amsterdam. Guides narrate historical context, architectural details and cultural stories tailored to each route. Cicerones presents factual, site-focused tours suitable for visitors seeking history, architecture and local stories in manageable 1.5-hour formats. Based in Gorinchem, the organisation connects visitors with the hidden corners and heritage of Dutch towns through concise guided walks across multiple regions. Tour listings also include Hilversum, Delft, Alkmaar, Zwolle, Den Haag, Groningen, Schiedam, Hoorn, Deventer and Muiden, covering municipal centres, historic neighbourhoods and specialized monument routes across the Netherlands. All trip summaries specify themes, durations and notable sites for planning.
