Itinerary
El Depósito de Arte (Espejado) de Boijmans Van Beuningen, junto con otros lugares en el Distrito de los Museos. Aquí aprenderás sobre todos los museos y la Tierra de Hoboken.
En el Distrito Marítimo encontrarás muchos barcos centenarios, los últimos de su clase. Caminaremos por este museo al aire libre, ¡y te sentirás como si hubieras retrocedido en el tiempo!
Het Scheepvaartkwartier (el Barrio Marítimo) es una joya escondida fuera del centro de la ciudad; un lugar que muchos habitantes de Róterdam ni siquiera conocen. ¡Aquí experimentarás la sensación de apertura y amplitud de esta hermosa ciudad portuaria! Desde la orilla del río Maas, podrás ver el Hotel New York, el Vapor Róterdam y el Erasmusbrug.
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.
Una de las estatuas más importantes de la ciudad de Róterdam en relación con la Segunda Guerra Mundial, en la Plaza 1940, con mucho significado e historia.
La Casa Blanca es un icono histórico y solía ser la torre de oficinas más alta de Europa.
El Puerto Viejo es uno de los puertos más antiguos de los Países Bajos ¡y también muy acogedor! Desde aquí, tenemos una gran vista de las Casas Cubo, ¡las cuales veremos de cerca en nuestra próxima parada!
Las Casas Cubo son quizás uno de los lugares turísticos más famosos de la ciudad. Aprenderás todo sobre el porqué, el cómo y su arquitectura. Caminarás por el "bosque de hormigón" de camino a la plaza del mercado.
Después de visitar la plaza del mercado, terminaremos el recorrido dentro de Markthal. Esto hizo que Róterdam fuera aún más famosa, ¡y es un mercado cubierto moderno con mucha comida y colores! También lo llamamos nuestra Capilla Sixtina moderna, ¡y descubrirás por qué!

Very nice tour to discover the most evocative places in Rotterdam. Itzel, our guide, knew how to engage us and make us feel like we were walking around Rotterdam in the company of a friend, explaining the peculiarities of the various places. Thank you Itzel. Highly recommended
Grazie mille per questa bellissima recensione! Sono molto felice che il tour vi sia piaciuto e che vi siate sentiti come con un'amica. È stato un vero piacere farvi scoprire la mia casa: Rotterdam. Siete sempre i benvenuti! - Itzel.
I had underestimated this destination, but it was a great discovery! Itzel was fantastic!!! Tour in Italian full of curiosities and details; she also shared a lot about Dutch culture and not just the history of the city, although it was very interesting. She definitely added that extra touch of magic. The tour is highly recommended, and personal praise to her!
I have lived in Rotterdam for 1 year and on this tour I learned things I could never have known, she was a very attentive guide with a very good sense of humor, she knew very interesting facts about the city and she took us to places you would not normally see as a tourist. Super recommended to know Rotterdam for real.
We toured the main points of the city and, despite the heat, Itzel managed to make the experience very pleasant. Always with a smile, he answered all our doubts and gave us excellent recommendations. Thank you, Itzel, for your good vibe and for making the tour so special!
Hola Carla, Thank you very much for the kind words about the tour and Itzel. We are thrilled to read you have had a good time in Rotterdam with Itzel. Thank you for coming, and hopefully see you again soon! Kind regards, Yoreh
We did the walking tour with Itzel, and although it was raining we had a great time! I have visited Rotterdam a few times before, but never did a tour in the city. As the parents of my girlfriend were over from Mexico, we decided to do this walking tour. And I'm happy we did! Itzel is very knowledgeable about the city, with all of its history and architecture. We got to know a lot about the past, present and future through all the stories and accompanying photomaterial that Itzelf took with her. The tour was really well prepared which added a lot to the quality of the tour. Itzel is very enthousiastic and creates a nice energy within the group. I would definitely recommend this tour!
Dear Frank, Thank you so much for coming on the tour with your girlfriend and her parents. It is great to read you are so enthusiastic about Itzel, because we are too! We hope to see you again soon! kind regards, Yoreh
We visit the most iconic points of Rotterdam on this walking tour, with relevant information as an excellent starting point for our visit in this city with so many contrasts and history. Despite the rain, our guide Itzel caught us a wonderful energy, willing to adapt the tour to our pace, you can see his passion for what he does and experiences he shares. Highly recommended!
¡Muchas gracias por venir al tour con Itzel! Nos alegra saber que lo pasaste bien con ella como guía y en la ciudad. Saludos cordiales, Yoreh
