Best way to see city after 4;30pm

by GladToGoRose Online Now Mar 6, 2013 at 6:17 PM

Our river tour will arrive at Schoonhoven at about 4:30 and is scheduled to depart at 7:30 the following morning. Will there be any museums open after 4:30 in the afternoon. Can you tell me anything about the Dump Store, such as it operating hours, etc. Also is there a special food that I should try while we are there, our meals will be served onboard the ship, but a special coffee, pastry, etc., would be a welcome suggestion.

Thank you in advance.

    Hello,

    It probably will be too late to see any museums as most will close at 17.00. It seems also the tourist office will be closed by that time.

    Best way to enjoy Schoonhoven may be to just walk around a bit. You can have a look at my page for an impression. You could go and have a look at the Bonrepas mill: "Schoonhoven" - Schoonhoven by Pijlmans

    Google told me this about the Dump Store: koestraat.nu/pages/dumpshop....

    Cheers,
    Dennis

    there is not really special local food there. You may try-but I think its only sold in some special shops and if there is a market going on (will have closed anyway by that time too) the boerenkaas= made by farmers themselves the old traditional way, in various tastes. But obviously from nearby in the country-not in town. Close by is the town of GOUDA (bus ev 30 mins-takes about 35 mins) which is most famous for its stroopwafels- even far outside of Netherlands.
