Walking Tours in Almere

Sea Floor to Sluiskade: A Walk Through the Newest Old Town in Europe

A 10-stop walking tour of Almere Haven — the oldest district of one of the youngest cities on Earth. Schoolwerf (the first house key, 30 November 1976), De Roef (first restaurant + first church under one roof), Goede Rede (a 1979 ship-shaped church with a 35-metre RIJP tower and a 47-bell carillon), Kerkgracht (a deliberately Edam-inspired 1970s canal), Marktgracht (woonerf-scale market square), Stadswerfpark (cloverleaf-pattern green core), Sluiskade (autovrij since 2022), Havenkom (75-berth marina on the Gooimeer), Strand Almere Haven (beach on the seabed), and Gooimeerdijk (a dike where there used to be sea).
