Maastricht

Maastricht is one of the Netherlands’ most attractive and historic cities, known for its beautiful architecture, cobbled streets and relaxed riverside setting. Visitors can explore the lively Vrijthof square, discover charming cafés and boutiques, and enjoy impressive landmarks including the Basilica of Saint Servatius and the medieval city walls.

Located close to the borders of Belgium and Germany, Maastricht has a distinctive European character and an excellent selection of restaurants, bars and cultural attractions. During the festive season, the city becomes especially atmospheric, with Christmas lights, markets and seasonal events making it the perfect destination to combine with an André Rieu concert.
