Traveling alone boring? Not at all! Quite the opposite. You can do what you want, when you want, without consulting anyone, and at your own pace. Afraid of awkward stares when sitting alone in a restaurant or going to the movies by yourself? You really don't have to be. Here are some tips to fill your me-time.
Start the day slow
If you're early in the city and still need to wake up a bit, Koffieboetiek is a top recommendation. Start your day with a breakfast platter and a dirty chai latte, and you'll be good to go!
A touch of culture
A museum visit is the perfect solo activity. At the Kunsthal, you can peacefully enjoy photography and art exhibitions by big names. Your ticket also gives you access to the castle, so you can check that out as well.
Explore the city
At the Tourist Information Office, you'll find various routes that help you discover the city in a fun and educational way. Think of the Art Route, Street Art Route, or the Poetry Walk. Go at your own pace, and you can easily combine it with shopping.
A well-deserved break
After all that walking, you'll need a snack and a drink. At JUUDs Foederer HAL van Creatie, you can enjoy plant-based sandwiches, soups, and sweet treats. At a cozy little table, you'll almost feel like you're in Paris.
To the movies
At De Cacaofabriek, you can watch the best indie films. Grab a drink at the brasserie to take with you, so you can enjoy an Aperol Spritz while laughing at a comedy. Blissful, right?
Pizza to end the day
A delicious pizza or pasta is always a good idea. Belcapo knows their way around these dishes. Pick a snug corner and indulge. Feeling self-conscious? Just bring a book! Add a glass of wine, and you're all set!
