Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Leiden is absolutely stunning - It is like a smaller, less crowded Amsterdam, with lots of canals and history. It is home to a waka taua or Māori war canoe that is housed at the National Museum of Antiquities (Rijksmuseum van Oudheden) It is a student town, and we were there during the orientation week for the University of Leiden. The University is quite the heart of the town. The square and shopping is a short walk from the centraal station. We followed the garden walk, as shown us by people from the Leiden Museum and wondered through a beautiful walk, that sometimes felt like passing through someones garden (which we suspected they were)
When people heard we were going to Leiden they were surprised as it is not a tourist destination. We attended a conference at the University of Leiden Library, and delighted in the beautiful daily walk. Orientation was helped by locals, and some awesome spots to dine were enjoyed. The students and their OWL week fun was a joy to witness. To our great delight we were blessed to visit the Bibliotheca Thysiana. I would recommend staying a couple of days in Leiden to break up a trip with the crazyness of Amsterdams tourists, and Rotterdams modernness.

Leiden is a must visit city whilst in Netherlands, the architecture, history and vibes are amazing.
The tour organizer Mr. Punartha Perera is best person to contact if you want to explore Leiden, he shared all the hot spots and knows the city inside out.
I recommend everyone to visit Leiden instead of limiting your stay to Amsterdam as it's just a 30min train journey away.

An interesting tour of Leiden with various sights pointed out and history explained. PJ (our tour guide) knew a lot about Leiden and we stopped frequently to understand the point of interest. We had tea & biscuits too which was nice. Overall a very good tour
