Itinerary

1. 1

   The Art Depository (Mirror) of Boijmans Van Beuningen, along with other places in the Museum District. Here you will learn about all the museums and the Land of Hoboken.

2. 2

   In the Maritime District you will find many centuries-old ships, the last of their kind. We’ll walk through this open-air museum, and you’ll feel like you’ve gone back in time!

3. 3

   Het Scheepvaartkwartier (the Maritime Quarter) is a hidden gem outside the city center; a place that many Rotterdamers do not even know. Here you will experience the feeling of openness and spaciousness of this beautiful port city! From the banks of the Maas River, you can see the New York Hotel, Rotterdam Steam and Erasmusbrug.

4. 4

   The Erasmus bridge is the big white bridge, crossing the river Meuse (Maas) and connecting north to south. It is an icon to the city and here you will hear all about the Second World War, the invasion, and bombardment of Rotterdam.

5. 5

   One of the most important statues of the city of Rotterdam in connection with the Second World War, in 1940 Square, with much significance and history.

6. 6

   The White House is a historic icon and used to be the tallest office tower in Europe.

7. 7

   The Old Port is one of the oldest ports in the Netherlands and also very welcoming! From here, we have a great view of the Cube Houses, which we will see up close at our next stop!

8. 8

   Cube Houses are perhaps one of the most famous tourist spots in the city. You will learn all about why, how and its architecture. You will walk through the "concrete forest" on your way to the market square.

9. 9

   After visiting the market square, we will finish the tour inside Markthal. This made Rotterdam even more famous, and it is a modern indoor market with lots of food and colors! We also call it our modern Sistine Chapel, and you’ll find out why!
