Itinerario
Nuestra primera parada será frente al Hotel New York. Contaremos sobre su historia y uso actual. También desde allí tendremos una gran vista del llamado 'tornado' que es el nuevo Museo Fénix de la Migración.
Pasaremos en bicicleta por el Erasmusbrug hacia el Distrito Marítimo, donde nos detendremos en el Memorial de Guerra de Rotterdam de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Hablaremos del puente y daremos una breve historia de Rotterdam en relación con la Segunda Guerra Mundial.
Nos detendremos en el Barrio Naviero en la fuente que una vez estuvo en el centro de la ciudad. Esta parte característica de Róterdam le dará una idea de cómo era Róterdam antes de la guerra.
El llamado ‘Barrio de los Museos’ es un lugar en Rotterdam donde se encuentran algunos de los museos más destacados de Rotterdam, conectados por el parque de los Museos. Haremos una parada cerca de The New Institute mirando el nuevo Art Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen, uno de los últimos iconos que se añadió a Rotterdam y el primer almacén de arte de acceso público en el mundo! ¿Ya te estás emocionando?
Habrá una oportunidad para un descanso de 15 a 20 minutos en una de las calles comerciales más antiguas de Rotterdam, De Oude Binnenweg. La duración del descanso depende del tamaño y las necesidades del grupo y se puede ajustar en el acto. Durante el descanso, podemos quedarnos juntos en un bar o puede optar por pasear y explorar por su cuenta. Este momento es ideal para socializar, recibir recomendaciones, calentar, refrescarse o simplemente usar el baño. Las bebidas no están incluidas.
Nuestra última parada antes de traer de vuelta las bicicletas será frente al histórico ayuntamiento de Rotterdam.
Pararemos cerca en la plaza frente a la Iglesia de San Lorenzo.
Las Casas Cubo amarillas podrían ser uno de los lugares turísticos más famosos de la ciudad. Nos pararemos delante, hablaremos de la historia y tomaremos fotos.
El Market Hall (2014) hizo a Rotterdam más famoso y es un mercado interior moderno con mucha comida y colores! También la llamamos nuestra Capilla Sixtina moderna y descubrirás por qué!
Seguiremos en bicicleta hacia el puente de Kings Harbour, ¡donde haremos una parada y nos sumergiremos en su historia!

My mum & I as part of our 5 day trip to The Hague wanted to experience a guided tour bike ride in Rotterdam. Elmer was available and he offered us a private tour at no extra fee. Elmer was very thorough to check the bikes tyres were inflated & we were happy with the seat heights. We agreed not to go too fast as we were cycling near main roads. Elmer explained the route we would take & what we would see. We stopped at several points so he could give us the history at that given site. Elmer is fluent in english, and he always gave clear hand signals as to which way we were going. A great 2 hours experience and Elmer is not only an excellent tour guide, but a thoroughly nice person and we would recommend him to anyone of all ages!
This bicycle tour is a great way to see the heart of Rotterdam, and Elmo is a fantastic guide full of knowledge and love for his city. The trip includes many stops to stretch your legs so you are not sitting on the bike for long periods. The bike lanes in Rotterdam are well marked and smooth, with every intersection having signals just for bikes alone. Note that we used pedal bikes (not e-bikes), but we are in our mid-60’s and had no problems. I highly recommend Elmo and this tour for a great experience!
Wow Steve! You are making us blush ;) Thanks for leaving us a flying review! We are doing our best to maintain our bikes to the highest standards to make sure our tour members are happy! It was a joy showing you around in Rotterdam :) All the best! Elmer
Elmer is passionate about the city he grew up in. Rotterdam has seen dramatic change over its history. He has selected wonderful locations and topics. He tells Rotterdam's history in a personal way, not leaving out many of the ugly truths behind why things are the way they are. But above all, his optimism for the living experiment that is his growing, dynamic city shines through in his tour. This isn't a college kid who memorized some facts (although that kind of tour can be fun, too!). It's a good guy who found a way to share his knowledge and love of his home for a living. Bravo, Elmer!
Jay! What a tour we had, right!? Thanks for leaving us such a great honest review. It helps us, and of course other travelers to make the right decision. Wishing you all the best and whenever you feel like, come to Rotterdam and we do another tour! Be in touch :) - Elmer, Rottourdam Tours
Our guide Elmer was super enthusiastic, he has a lot of knowledge and turned out to be a nice talker. A true Rotterdammer with the accompanying humour. A top experience! Jos & Ruth and Koen & Sophie
