Ontzettend leuke route, prachtig door de oude stad. Met deze route kom je op de meest verrassende plekjes. Aanwijzingen zijn duidelijk en de opdrachten zijn precies lastig genoeg om het spannend te houden.

Heerlijk gewandeld door prachtig Haarlem. Niet de bekende straten maar door prachtige steegjes en langs hofjes. Duidelijke beschrijving en leuke opdrachten.
