We really enjoyed the history and the relaxed comfortable accommodation on Spido. It was a nice addition to our sightseeing tour.
This is a must do in Rotterdam. The Harbor tour provides insight on the busy port of Rotterdam. It’s very relaxing and provides a wonderful time along beautiful Rotterdam.
Nice little walk to discover the port of Rotterdam. The tour is pleasant, you see quite a few things and it allows you to discover the port at a leisurely pace. The price remains relatively reasonable for the activity.
Great staff, very nice clean boat with many different viewing platforms! Unique route brought us into the cargo port area as well. Narration in Dutch, German, English and French. Clean bathrooms and a nicely stocked snack/bar.
I did the tour that takes 2 and half hours and goes quite a long way down river. Excellent views of docks ships and industrial sites. Comfortable seating inside or out. Good adequate catering for food and drinks. Good value
Nice cruise, though massive. But well organized.
The first 15 minutes and the last were the most interesting. But beyond that, you are mostly in the industrial shipping area. You will pass a couple of windmills. Nice ride if you want to get off your feet for an hour or so.
We're sorry to hear that the boat tour didn't meet your expectations. The tour you chose heads towards the harbor area. We'll make sure to mention this more clearly in the description.
Very good experience, unique visit.
The recorded 'guide' was hard to follow, far too many languages and the whole tour was quite a big disappointment. the only positive was that we had respite from the sun, coz they have a big indoor area to sit.
We're sorry to hear that the boat tour didn't meet your expectations. We'll take your feedback about the multiple languages into our next meeting.
This tour was very boring. You go through the harbor, and that's it. You can not hear anything. They were telling you information, but the sound system was not good. Also, everyone on the boat was talking. You can order food and drinks if you want. Would not do this tour again.
We appreciate your opinion and are very sorry that the boat tour did not meet your expectations. We take feedback seriously and will make sure this gets improved.
