Top Things to do in Limburg Province
What to do and see in Limburg Province, The Netherlands: The Best Budget-friendly Things to do
Getting its name from the medieval Duchy of Limburg (now split among Holland, Belgium and Germany and the birthplace of the infamously pungent Limburger cheese), Limburg is the Netherlands’ southernmost region. Many of the area’s best attractions are concentrated in the capital of Maastricht, but other sights include the 12th-century Valkenburg castle ruins, the 17th-century Eijsden castle, the 20th-century Glaspaleis (built next to a medieval church at Heerlen), and De Meinweg National Park.

The walks around the lakes and water are beautiful, so is the town with the live music from the bandstand. I was recommended to come to this town as an off the beaten track and it certainly is but its also vibrant, colourful and friendly. Highly recommended

We booked to visit online and had the best time. The park is small enough to get around and has some amazing rides. The queues were not too bad. The flume rose was an hour but Troy (the best ride in the park) had a queue of five minutes!! We went on all the rides and we all had a blast! We loved the bike ride and the indoor Toboggan one. Good value for money and a great day out that I would recommend to all families.

Our guide, Willy, was a great source of information on the one hour + tour of the fort and it’s underground tunnels. It was really interesting to learn about the fort and its role in Maastricht’s history over the years. Great views over the city and surroundings.

Reviewed By Grommetje - Deurne, The Netherlands
Nice brewery in the south of the Netherlands. Specialized in their range of crafters of which the Grand Prestige is exquisite and world renowned. The brewery gives nice insight in the process of brewing and assembling as well as the raved oak aged versions annually sold out within minutes. These small batches are layered on oak used previously for wines, cognacs, whiskeys, etc. The fuse of tastes is absolutely phenomenal. Visiting the section where the beer ages on barrels adds to the experience of visiting the cellar where Grand Prestiges of all years are aging. Places and bottles can be reserved and once aged 5-6 years can be collected at the brewery. The experience is great and very personal, as are the tours at the brewery.

Thanks to our stay in Roermond we discovered this beautiful nature reserve. Highly recommended for cyclists and hikers. Certain zones are quiet zones and therefore forbidden for cars, motorcycles and mopeds. Very well signposted paths for cyclists and hikers.

Probably the most beautiful zoo to walk through in the Netherlands. Lots of greenery and no cages, only natural exhibits. Not the biggest zoo, we were there for 3.5 hours. There are lots of play areas for the kids, including an indoor dinosaur themed play ground.
10. Kasteeltuinen Arcen

Reviewed By theleedsgirl - Leeds, United Kingdom
Kasteeltuinen has vast, beautiful gardens to explore. There are rose gardens, tropical gardens, Japanese gardens, bamboo, Italian and the list goes on. All are delicately manicured and well kept. There is a huge crazy golf course that is included in the entrance fee. Lots of lakes and waterfalls too. We stayed about 3 hours and didn't see everything because the site is massive. We visited the house too. The interior was disappointing. We also fed some goats, chickens and Koi Carp. This is a place to visit on a dry day as 90 percent is outside. Kids go free in July and August, which is always a bonus! You can get cheaper tickets sometimes on Social Deal or the ANWB members' site. I plan to return to see the parts that I did not get to see.
