10x group activities in Maastricht
Discovering Maastricht with a group, you are not the first to think this is a great idea. Whether you go out with your whole family, organise a team outing with colleagues or want to surprise a festive occasion. From family weekend to stag weekend: Maastricht offers the most fun activities for groups. Whether you are looking for adventure or just want to discover the city on a culinary level. We take you through a top 10!
Guided tour of Fort Sint Pieter
Maastricht's underground cave system continues to surprise visitors. Because deep inside the caves there is no sound or light (so no phone coverage either), you can only visit this place with an Official Maastricht Guide. That makes this outing not only very educational, but also very exciting. However, the Fort stands at a unique height, proudly perched on Sint-Pietersberg (St. Pietersberg hill) and created in the early 1700s. A special point right above the mysterious cave system. The Fort is still largely intact, making it a fascinating outing for a minimum of 15 participants.

Flan baking workshop
When we say South Limburg, you say "vlaai"! Recently, bakers may only call their flan Limburg flan if it meets various requirements within the brand new quality mark. We really understand this, because flan baking is a true art. Master this art during a flan-baking workshop at de Bisschopsmolen. A special bakery in the heart of Maastricht. A sweet activity for young and old and can also be combined with a lunch in the bakery's brasserie! Naturally, you will take home your home-made flan after the workshop.

Scooter trip Zonneberg caves
We stay a little longer in mysterious underground Maastricht. Because for the real sporty adventurers, a scooter trip has been mapped out in the caves. Discover the deepest secrets of the Sint-Pietersberg (St. Pietersberg Hill) by scooter together with a Maastricht Underground guide. With the scooter, you will reach places you cannot reach with a normal guided tour. Currently, the system still has some 8,000 corridors with a total length of about 80 kilometres. No sound, no range, no light... Just the way your guide maps out for you with a headlamp for a little help. Exciting right?

Cycling tour Mestreech
You can discover a lot of Maastricht on foot, but if you go by bike... Then you will discover even more! An experienced Official Maastricht Guide has mapped out the best cycling tour for you and will take you on a discovery. Along the way, the guide will treat you to the best facts, beautiful anecdotes and instructive stories. From hidden gems in the historic city centre to tranquil banks of the Maas just outside the city. Don't have your own bike? We will gladly pair you up with a bike rental company. The tour takes about 2 hours and is fun for young and old.
Wine tasting with guided tour
Besides flan, wine is another local product we are proud of. This is only natural, as Maastricht and its surroundings are home to many vineyards. Think of the Apostelhoeve, for example. A fantastic place to discover the craft of winemaking. The Apostelhoeve is the oldest wine company in the Netherlands, which you can learn all about during a tasting and guided tour. You can also get your wine heart racing in the city centre, at the exceptional Thiessen Wijnkoopers winery. Because when you enter the building in the heart of Maastricht, you have no idea of the large number of square metres of wine cellar hidden underground. With a guided tour, you will find out - while tasting. Highly recommended for a culinary experience in Maastricht.
Explore Apostelhoeve and Thiessen Wijnkoopers.
