Description

Step into two countries in one day with a guided day trip from Amsterdam (or Your Hotel) to Baarle-Nassau. Discover hidden borders, split houses, and incredible stories in this one-of-a-kind European border town.
Nestled in the southern Netherlands, this peaceful town is world-famous for its bizarre and unique border situation, where Belgian and Dutch territories intertwine in a patchwork of enclaves — sometimes even splitting houses, shops, and streets between two countries.
Walk across international borders multiple times in just a few minutes, learn the intriguing history behind this geopolitical puzzle, and enjoy the quaint village atmosphere with cozy cafés and boutique stores.
On this 4 km enclave walk, explore the heart of Baarle, where you can cross the border between Belgium and the Netherlands dozens of times without ever leaving the village center. With your guide, experience fascinating stories, stand on international borders, and see how two nations can peacefully share one town.
While anyone can wander around Baarle, a guided tour brings the hidden stories, border quirks, and rich culture to life. See the best of the village, understand its unusual layout, and enjoy plenty of time for photos, local snacks, and souvenirs.
