Deep Dive Rotterdam

Rotterdam is a city that asks to be discovered and you need to actually experience the DNA of the city. See the architecture, feel the vibe, hear the harbour and sail the river. Once the largest port in the world. Today a city where there is always something going on, where there is always something to see. Mainly thanks to the flowing artery of the city, the river Maas. Water plays an important role during our walk in Rotterdam. (Hopefully not because of the rain). We walk across the Erasmus Bridge, which connects the north of the city to the south, and through the Maastunnel. In many places we see the Maas, with the ships that are on their way to the port, or sailing in the other direction, towards the backyard of the country. I have lived near Rotterdam all my life. A city to be proud of and surely, I am! So I designed a tour specially for first time visitors. It covers a lot of highlights and participants will experience plenty of Wow! That is for sure.

We will meet at the Central Trainstation of Rotterdam and start our visit. Most of the tour we walk, but occasionally we use public transport and of course we sail a bit on the river Maas. These highlights you will see: - Town hall at our mainroad Coolsingel. - Modern markethall with beautiful painting at the ceiling . - Famous yellow Cubehouses. - Erasmus bridge connecting North and South. - Hotel New York, from where the ships left for America. - Euromast, since 1960 the tallest tower, but not anymore. - Maastunnel, we walk 'under' the river Maas. If there is still time left, you will also see: - Museum Boymans van Beuningen and the Depot. - Steamship SS Rotterdam. For sure we drink a coffee at one of the most charming locations of the city.
