What to expect
Witte de Withstraat
Ride through Rotterdam’s liveliest street, packed with galleries, street art, cafés and restaurants. Your guide points out the best spots to come back to later.

Stop at the world’s first publicly accessible art depot, a giant mirrored bowl in the Museumpark that reflects the city and sky around it. Your guide explains how this building stores more than 150,000 artworks and why it has become one of Rotterdam’s most photographed landmarks. Photo stop from the outside.
Take in the city’s most impressive skyline, with towering skyscrapers on the former harbour docks. Learn how this old port area was transformed into a modern waterfront district.
Hotel New York
Pass the historic former headquarters of the Holland America Line, where millions of emigrants once set sail for New York. A must-see piece of Rotterdam’s maritime history.
Admire the famous tilted yellow Cube Houses, one of the world’s most unusual buildings. Your guide explains the bold idea behind them. Photo stop from the outside.
Markthal
Stop at Rotterdam’s most-visited and spectacular horseshoe-shaped market hall, famous for its giant colourful ceiling mural. Hear how this building combines homes, food stalls and art.

Spot the eye-catching orange reconstruction of the Delftse Poort, one of Rotterdam’s old city gates that disappeared from the cityscape. This modern tribute in bright orange brings a piece of lost Rotterdam history back to the streets, and it’s a favourite photo spot.
Glide across Rotterdam’s most iconic landmark, nicknamed “The Swan”. Stop for photos with the skyline and the river Maas behind you while your guide tells the story of the bridge.
