Zeer aangename en duidelijke uitleg over vele bezienswaardigheden. Op plekken geweest waar je als tourist zelf nauwelijks zal komen. Tempo goed bij te houden. Heerlijke proeverij in voormalig klooster. Doordat het een kleine groep is, mogelijkheid om verder in gesprek te komen over de onderwerpen. Dankjewel Clara voor de gezellige middag!
