Starting to think about a trip to Holland and Belgium, but this question is specific to some of the eastern provinces of Holland, i.e. Noord Brabant, Gelderland, and Overijssel. If we were looking to explore places accessible by train in this region, what would you recommend? Our interests are: history, art history, museums, architecture, photography, natural history, birdlife/wildlife, and of course, food and drink! We are fit(-ish!) in our 60s, and enjoy walking and hiking, but not bicycling (I know, blasphemy in Holland). I say "by train," but are open to buses too -- but we will not have a car. Hopefully that's enough to go on, but ask for more info if needed. Looking forward to everyone's thoughts...
EDIT: A couple initial thoughts to throw out for reactions: One idea was a day devoted to some of the Hanseatic Cities, particularly Zwolle, Deventer, and Zutphen. We were also eyeballing Breda as a bit of a hub. Seems like a nice-sized and attractive base with good rail connections. Thoughts?
