Discover the creative heart of a traditional fishing village with this engaging audio tour on your mobile app. Your guide is Leendert Spaander, an art enthusiast and proprietor of a renowned hotel in Volendam. He'll transport you back in time, revealing the allure and distinct character of this delightful neighbour to Edam (a brief tram journey away).
Your exploration begins at Spaander's Hotel, leading you to the harbour where villagers once celebrated weddings, purchased fish, and engaged in spirited boat races. From there, you'll meander through inviting streets, uncover the route of the inaugural steam tram, and spot charming features such as petite bridges, vibrantly painted wooden homes, and imposing churches like St Vincentius.
As you amble along, you're encouraged to view paintings within the app and partake in occasional quizzes. The tour concludes back at its starting point, where you're invited to wander through the hotel lobby, which doubles as an authentic art gallery.
