- We woke up in Maastricht and got out to explore the oldest city in the Netherlands. Right away you get a completely different vibe in Maastricht. Things feel a bit different. Maybe it's the old medieval architecture evident all around the city. This city is full of history, it has been invaded over 20 times in it's history. Maastricht is also one of the msot southern points of the Netherlands and it is walking distance to the neighboring country Belgium. You might ask yourself if you are still in the Netherlands when exploring old Maastricht.

As much as people don't like reading boring history, it is more appealing to see and feel history. It takes us through a journey when we visit a historical place
5:50 the very best fries you get in the Markt, Reitz. In normal times, and in the summer in particular, there’s always a long line of people. Cant miss it.
Yay, my city! I studied there.
It's cool when a good vlogger you're following posts content about your hometown, bit awkward too when you're used to seeing him in faraway countries. Thumbs up!
I studied there for 4 years some 10 years ago. Seeing this brings back a lot of good memories. Definitly one of the most beautiful towns in the Netherlands.
I love watching you walk around Amsterdam. It's absolutely beautiful.
Love to see you visit our beautiful city.
Much ❤️ to all of you!
Thanks for this video. I lived in Maastricht for almost 2 years and missed this city so much!
You are an excellent ambassador of my wonderfull city. Thanks for the upload and I wanna wish you all the best in 2021. :)
Really enjoy watching your videos. You can say I’m a new fan.
Alright! You found the tradional Dutch 'oliebollen'. Outstanding video bro! Thanks! Great to see that Sophie has joined you on this trip!
Glad you enjoyed it
I only discovered your channel 5 days ago and I enjoy your content I live in Maastricht myself so this video is great. indeed you went to the best fries snack room their amazing anyway i hope you have a lot of fun in our country and god bless your brother
Thanks and welcome
Maastricht is indeed one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, together with Nijmegen and Voorburg (all 1st century AD). Nijmegen definitely is worth a visit. You may also like Deventer, Groningen, Zwolle and Amersfoort
In the neighborhood of Rotterdam, one could have visited Schiedam, Gouda and especially Dordrecht. I recommend taking the Public transport boats to Rotterdam from there. Take the ones that stop in Kinderdijk. In summer you can visit the Zeelandic cities of Goes, Middelburg and Vlissingen and also Veere. Veere is magical on warm summer evenings.
Groningen is quite a drive, but it also has a distinctive character because of it's relatively isolate place, it's still quite lively despite covid and it's of course the ultimate cycling city. Zutphen and Elburg are a quite a bit smaller but very nice looking too.
Eyy my city Amersfoort finaly getting some love.
maastricht is one of the oldest, but nijmegen is the oldest
Enschede too!
Great, beautiful city! 💖
So you are a gamer besides a world traveler! Beautiful video, Volpe!:)
i am from the netherlands and learn from every vlog new things and information about my country thank you for that! :) i like it
Come to Eindhoven you will see very rare people we call them marrokkanen
😂😂
They are very kind they always come at you in groups to ask you what your problem is

I've been catching up with your videos from the beginning to now got alerted at post today so went to the present. great videos and Keep Safe
Glad you like them!
your channel is awsome . i'm so hooked
Leuk dat ik ook dankzij jou, Volpe, en UA-cam, (ondanks dat Corona er is, en mij ook isoleert) , sightseeings krijg van mooie plaatsen die ik nog niet kan bezoeken. 😊
Really like the look of this place, great vlog!
Thanks a lot chief
10:49 that's what she said
The legendary Michael Scott as volpe
Wonderful Compilation
Very picturesque !!
Unique architecture everywhere. 👍👍
It really is!
Hey bro volpe..ive been watching couple of your videos, they are really good. Just now subscribed your channel.
Thanks and welcome
I always wait for your video
So Good to see you and sophinator in one video👍
Brought me memories of my student life in this beautiful old city of Maastricht ❤️. I believe you might have visited the Netherlands American Cemetery and War Memorial too. It's just under 12km from the city center.
Maastricht is indeed a beautiful city. I was born and still live here. When its normal, it's a very nice, warm city at all seasons but around Christmas and carnaval, we say Vasteloavend, the most. The church with the Porsche and Jeep is no longer used as a church but is a research institute. And cannons were fired through the holes in the old walls to protect the city from threats. When you are in Maastricht again (after covid-19), you can walk up in the red tower on the vrijthof where you have a nice view.
Nice to see you went tot he south! Reitz always +1
Nice to see something of Maastricht in your video!! :-) :-D
I was 1 time in Maastricht a long time ago, so it's very nice to see Maastricht now again!! :-) :-D
Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@VolpeWhereAreYou: of course!! :-) :-D
I love Maastricht!! I was there for few weeks, January last year!!!
Wow.. lovely city. ❤️
We may not have the best culinary reputation but our snacks are on point :)
This comment is on point 100%
Holle bolle gijs
@@Simone.1999 A little, yes ;)
@@gijsyo im dutch too😉
@@gijsyo but did you just say, i can find you in the efteling🤣🤣
The Basilica also houses an art and there's a holy treasury. There's probably a restoration preservation lab and the playground may be for a day care or orphanage. Or maybe a clinic.
That church has indeed a laboratory inside. It is rebuild into seperate parts. One is the lab, one is a space for cultural events and it is also someone’s home. That children’s playground you filmed is someone’s backyard.
Btw, now you’re in the south, one tip to drive with your rental car: the mergellandroute. You’ll see the Netherlands are not flat everywhere. And it is very beautiful
Thanks for the info, I was really confused. btw I visited that part, will upload the video sooner than later
You make great vlogs About the Netherlands, don’t forget to visite the east of Holland, you’re welcome
I love Maastricht!
First view & comment bro😊
Beautiful town
Volpe blijft hier!
Since it's the Sinterklaas and christmas season maybe you should find a good pastry bakery and try some of the season specials like speculaas, banketletter, borstplaat. I especially recommend 'gevuld speculaas' which is very different from the other kinds of speculaas. It's soft speculaas with almond paste in between. And there are of course the all season regulars like boterkoek and bitterkoekjes. It's really worth it to get it from a proper bakery instead of the supermarket, and pay a bit more.
Thanks for the tips!
Awesome 👏👏👏👏
6:26 omg . what a design 😂😹😝
I drive past the lab in the church every day and wonder what they're doing in there :D also, that one building you thought was the library is actually the University College
Welkom in Nederland :)
Btw about the church. I don't know that one personally. But we tend to use churches for more than just religious activities. Some churches are even turned into homes. Most people don't go to church anymore so they get into disuse. Partially because of this we use them for other activities. It preserves the building actually over time.
The church with the porsche is indeed a house. Most of the church is kept in its original state, but the family lives in the part next to the garden.
Those fries looked amazing!
Wait u been in Maastricht I live like 20 minutes away from there it’s so cool to find out people actually come here besides people from Germany/Belgium 😂
So glad you visited Maasi and loved it. It’s my favourite city in the Netherlands. Brought back some great memories. I could actually identify most of the places you visited!
Cheers from India 😁
Good to hear brother, cheers
When you’re coming back to the netherlands try a tompouce and a puddingbroodje! From a real backery! And Maastricht is lovely!
Reitz was definitely my favorite place to eat fries when I was there. The only downside was they only accepted cash. But I prefer these Belgian style fries over Dutch ones.
And if I am not mistaken is Heerlen(Coriovallum older then Nijmegen) on the othe otherside of the road from my appartmentcomplex there is museum with a Roman bathhouse in it what is over 2000 years old
nice trip of the NL's so far...... you proved youtube NL's is more than Amsterdam... you seem to enjoy trying streetfood and exploring architechture. You really take your took time to explore. I like it.....
Some suggestions for more exploration :
i think you haven't explored the countryside yet.
Try to find a local who can take you outside in the POLDER: The countryside surrounder allmost every city. Usually filled with grass, cows and canals. Really nice biking routes. occasionally you might find a farmer who sells fresh eggs, flowers, vegetables, milk.
Also in the countryside you can often see weird (small) water works. as you know most of NL is underwater. so in the countryside you can see many canals at varying waterheights if you´re lucky see can see some pumps at work to keep our feet dry.
I live in sweetlake city.... which used to be a lake. But we drained it and now people live here....you can still see the circular lake shape on google maps. nice biking. But there are many places elsewhere similar in NL's like it i think.
So the smaller villages surrounding the bigger or medium cities can be beautiful as well.
or what about the AFSLUITDIJK, the massive dyk.
If you want to meet some locals. i suggest you find a local "Bij Bosshardt stichting" . it belongs to salvation army. They have community centres all of the Netherlands, where people can have a cup of coffee for free, socialize, play a game, or buy something cheap from the shop. or share a cheap or free meal.) my local centre is still open during corona times, (but with some restrictions).
Really enjoy watching this (as a Dutchie) and glad someone took a lot of time and energy to explore and vlog. enjoy the rest of your stay.
Thank you, means a lot. I wanted to explore much more than I did but had to cut my trip in half due to France going into lockdown and not being able to extend my car rental. I will re turn sometime in the future and explore what I missed
Beautiful. I know Delft but you reveiled locations there I haven't even seen. You have a talent to find the good spots besides the talent to enjoy and swallow food. Big fan. Now you showed Maastricht and I really want to visit this place.
I only been to Amsterdam. Volpe is making me feel like I haven't seen anything in the Netherlands
If you have only visited Amsterdam, than you have indeed seen nothing of the Netherlands.
Super Cool
Hahaha yeeeees, literally the first place you visit was Reitz :D
and a baked goods stand after that! :D
too bad most of the places were closed, because theres some really good restaurants there.
and you missed some hidden gems like the Landbouwbelang squathouse (the homes they made in there are almost straight out of a fairytale)
Theres also a giant cave-system underneath Maastricht, but you'd need a guided tour to get in there.
And do keep an eye out for a "Bufkes" sandwich shop if you're back in the south, they got amazing Burgundian sandwiches and soups.
Awesome video man
Thanks will have to visit those places when things return to normal. I did get to visit those caves, hard to film in there but I tried :D
@@VolpeWhereAreYou Definately bro, Maastricht in summertime is a great place to be. :)
But yeah I bet its not easy filming in there without decent lighting :D I've had a few tours down there (legal and illegal) and once the light goes off it's just surreal how dark it is.
That bridge you where on was also the oldest bridge in the Netherlands from 1280. And that church you visit was also the oldest one, dating back to 560ad. And if you are still there, take a tour in the caves!
Thanks for the info, I did that, gotta edit the vlogs and upload them
Nic maastricht... Vlogger also looks so nic to me 😍
hello I like your video from Maastricht.I live at the church hotel.for 5 years.there are still very beautiful places in maastricht.an old defense. network. in the city you have a church and that bookshop is very nice and big. good day😁🤟
Thanks, I got to stay there one night, really awesome and unique hotel
Carlos sofee both lovely .
Funny and enjoying I like
Come to Groningen, u have to try the ''eierbal''
I will next visit
The church at around 1130 is no longer a church and is a residence of some really rich guy. Apparently, you can also rent a room inside this church but it's very expensive. I used to live just down that street :P
hey welcome to Maastricht
van ree patat (fries) in hoorn are the best also home made everyday fresh peeled potatoe its the best you must try
Hey Boss, come up north to the city of Groningen !!!
The church with the children stuff outside is actually turned into a house. It's for sale right now.
Bro the intro is so beautiful 👌
And your hair 💜 style is so cute and funny 😁 but amazing ❤️ so love from India 🇮🇳
Thank you 🙌
@@VolpeWhereAreYou welcome 😊
I wanna try that french fries place!!
How do you get so much time for traveling.Love your videos though. ❤️ from Kolkata
Nice place
Thanks for the vid. The art is because of the yearly carnaval that Maastricht has. And the fries at Reitz are also the oldest fries in the Netherlands, because of the proximity of Belgium. They are delicious.
Thanks for the info! Sophie loved the fries
@@VolpeWhereAreYou Fuck you Netherlands from indo
@@VolpeWhereAreYou 🖕🏻
@@VolpeWhereAreYou Indonesia is the cleanest country than the Netherlands 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩😎😎😎😎😎
Now I só much want a Berliner Bol with banketbakkersroom !!!
i really like this, i life in middle of holland so seeing this on video is cool. then i know on what to expect.
Btw how long you stay in holland ?
Glad ya like it, I was there for a month
@@VolpeWhereAreYou for a month? It seems longer haha
So many people you met said, their fries are the best, just wonder which really was the best :) You did the top 3 byriani, maybe you should make the top 5 French fries.
lol not a bad idea, my top pick are the ones I had in Leiden. I still think of the day I will have them again
An open eclair, though the dough might be a little bit different.
7:44 shes doing a dutch dance lol it called “the neckless”
One of the best cities in The Netherlands because of its different terrain from the rest of the country. Also if you travel a bit farther you can find the three country point between Germany, Belgium and The Netherlands also the highest point in The Netherlands elevation wise :))
Yup, visited those spots. Will upload those vlogs soon. You definitely see the more hills than usual here
Maastricht is also next to both the French part of Belgium (Wallonia) as the Dutch/Flemish part of Belgium (Flanders).
Due to the lockdown measures all restaurants and musea are closed.
The statues show carnival celebrating persons.
Best of both worlds
Next time in Limburg eat a Limburgse vlaai, a kind of pie looking like a pizza.
I don't know if you are a hindu and therefore may not eat beef, but another Limburgian delicacy is zoervleis.
In Brabant, Limburg and Flanders another delicacy to try is 'frieten met stoofvlees', which are French fries with beef stew.
Don't ever call French fries 'patat' instead of 'friet' south of the rivers crossing the Netherlands from east to west.
Yall need to visit Valkenburg it's so close by from Maaastricht.
yup we did :)
It's really difficult to see Sophie in that camouflage jacket😮
The church is actually not a church anymore. A medicine professor bought the place for himself and made it his working place. Nice vid keep up the good work!
Prof. Dr. Frankenstein?
wow your hairstyle is cool..nice place👍
Welcome to my capital! 🤗 Hope you enjoyed!
I did!
@@dajjal3820 Maastricht is the capital of Limburg and the Dutch part of Limburg had the status of a Dutch colony ran by a governor by military force, just like most parts of current Indonesia. I think it was around 1848-1866, when a very slow process of emancipation started, just like in all the other Dutch colonies. That makes you and those people in Maastricht strangely being in the same boat.
Nice Bro
J aime cet endroit de vieilles pierres avec ses paysages d'automne 😘
OSM😍🤩
When will you visit us up North? I think you would LOVE Vesting Bourtange and Groningen.
It's gonna have to be on my next trip to the Netherlands, I had to cut this one short sadly
Have a very good and safe trip home! It's always good to have something to look forward to! Stay healthy!
Come to Nijmegen too please!
I miss you boy
😂 i like head dance of Sophie it's unique
Amazing video of Maastricht. Normally so crowded with people and su much to do but unfortunately because of the covid everything is closed 😔 I live not so far from Maastricht (Sittard), so your always welcome to come drink some coffee bro😀👊
Thank you, I have left already. I'll take a rain check ;)
@@VolpeWhereAreYou whats you next destination in the Netherlands. When you eat the 🍟 you forgot the famous zuurvlees (stew beef with vinegar)😱😳 its amazing ❤ here you can see how it's look like www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-samsung-gs-rev1&source=android-home&tbm=isch&sxsrf=ALeKk02cIXUlr9XLAPIl3_7nUq9GXy9w5g%3A1607181674637&source=hp&ei=aqXLX8rhI4G0sAe-3IHwDw&q=friet+zuurvlees+maastricht&oq=friet+zuu&gs_lcp=ChJtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1pbWcQARgAMgIIADICCAAyBggAEAgQHjIECAAQGDIECAAQGDoHCCMQ6gIQJzoECAAQAzoICAAQsQMQgwE6BQgAELEDULkbWLVSYLtlaAFwAHgAgAFXiAGlBZIBATmYAQCgAQGwAQU&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-img#imgrc=UsyzfWVvpzki5M
When are you coming back to india bro??
missing yu❤️
If you are in Maastricht, visit the Mt St Peter (Sint-Pietersberg) and farther to the east the Vaalserberg (highest point of the Netherlands in Europe) right on the border with Germany and Belgium (and, for a time, Neutral Moresnet).
And still to do:
- (Hoge) Veluwe
- Harderwijk & Elburg
- Deventer
- Giethoorn
- Ootmarsum (a small city that didn't industrialise and grow large)
- Drenthe and the hunebedden
- Groningen
- Leeuwarden, towns on little manmade hills, the northern islands
etc. etc.
I visited most of the things in Maastricht, sadly I had to cut my trip short and didn't make it up north
@@VolpeWhereAreYou There is always next time! Thanks for the lively vids about my country.
The fact that we have most of these foods in South Africa 🇿🇦
really? I'm gonna have to go back and have a look
Bro,please come in India once again and don't miss to visit in jammu and Kashmir beautiful cities and famous tourist places.
11:30 now is a house of someone and have lab inside that church .. Sint-Lambertuskerk
An Indian Restaurant Being Closed Is Sad But An Indian Restaurant Without Biryani In Its Menu Is Heartbreaking 😢 😂 Loved The Vlog👌From Architecture To Natural Beauty, From Local Foods, Statues To Deer & Birds... So Much Variety In One.👍👏👏👏
...And And And That Rhino Horn Rocked By The Way 😄
Volpe can do some damage with it
Thanks, yeah how can they not have biryani :(
@@theamericanguy1697 😁😁
I'm a big fan of yours. You are invited to visit Bangladesh, I would like to bear all the expenses of your trip to Bangladesh.
A city that has the same kind of vibe is Roermond, it has an old historical center and the biggest MC Arthur Glenn Outlet Center of the world! It's located in Mid-Limburg (Midden Limburg). So not too far away from where you are now.
Liked ur new hair style..looking so cool and handsome👍👍❤️❤️
Thanks 😋
Ur welcome ❤️
(talking about oliebollen);The one with Nutella and almond Is In my opinion so much better.
I can only imagine what I missed out on
