VVV Gouda

This free guide serves to show you that The Netherlands is so much more than just Amsterdam! As a Dutch person, I think Amsterdam is highly overrated as a tourist destination. Locals have been forced out of the city centre and tourist shops have taken over. If you want an authentic experience of The Netherlands, I'd recommend reading the tips in this guide. And of course, if you really want to visit Amsterdam, you still can! ;)
