Introduction
Experience the vibrant Dutch city of Tilburg in three days. From its dynamic cultural scene to the lush Dutch greenery, prepare to be swept off your feet by Tilburg's unique charm.
Day 1 - Arrival & Exploring the City Center
Land in the welcoming and amicable city of Tilburg. Get a breath of the city air as you walk your way to your accommodation. Familiarize yourself with the city's public transport – the city's biking culture is also a fun thing to try out. Once you're settled, we're heading to Piushaven, a lively and bustling city harbor area. Filled with delightful terraces, restaurants, and trendy boutiques, it's a great introduction to the city's vibe. After that, why not explore some local culture? We recommend the Textile Museum, an intriguing institution showcasing Tilburg's history as the heart of the Dutch textile industry. In the evening, enjoy a lovely dinner at one of the city's many great restaurants. Fancy a post-dinner stroll? The city center, lit up beautifully at night, is a sight you wouldn't want to miss.
Day 2 – Delving into History & Art
Day 2 is for immersing yourself in the city's rich history and cultural scene. Head to the De Pont Museum which houses a spectacular collection of contemporary art; it's an amazing window into the Dutch and global art scenes. Right near the museum, you will find the magnificent Nature Theater which is an experience in itself. Break for a quick bite in the city, and then we delve deeper into the history with a visit to Camp Vught National Memorial. A former WWII concentration camp turned museum, it offers a somber but important glimpse into the region's history. As evening descends, take it easy and maybe catch a show at the City Theater, known for its exciting array of performances.
Day 3 – Outdoor Adventures & Farewell
On Day 3, we head outdoors. Visit the stunning Beekse Bergen Safari Park, a unique safari park that's just a short drive from the city. It's time to see some wildlife up close. Break for lunch at one of the fantastic eateries within the park. To end the day in a unique way, relax at the picturesque Westpoint Tower, one of the highest residential buildings in the country. Enjoy a meal while taking in panoramic views of the city you've come to know and love. As night falls, indulge in some local cuisine before you bid farewell to Tilburg, creating memories for a lifetime.
