Itinerario
Negli anni '70 del XX secolo, gli architetti volevano creare aree residenziali ospitali con la partecipazione dei residenti e di altri utenti in risposta al modernismo su larga scala e grigio dell'architettura della ricostruzione dopo la seconda guerra mondiale.
Nel 2011 il comune di Rotterdam ha organizzato la prima iniziativa cittadina, uno strumento amministrativo per stimolare l'innovazione amministrativa e la partecipazione dei cittadini. Gli abitanti di Rotterdam sono stati chiamati a presentare progetti che ravvivassero la città e migliorassero la qualità della vita in città. Un importo di 4 milioni è stato stanziato dall'iniziativa cittadina per realizzare il progetto.
Una visita ad un centro di informazioni turistiche che vi darà maggiori informazioni sulla città e la calorosa accoglienza del nostro sindaco. Il tuo TourGuy ti accompagnerà attraverso la mostra.
prima della seconda guerra mondiale non esisteva la Stazione Centrale, ma c'erano quattro stazioni intorno al centro. Nel 1957 fu aperta la stazione centrale nella posizione attuale. Nel 2004 è stata avviata una ristrutturazione totale della stazione centrale, nel 2014 è stato consegnato l'attuale risultato finale. La vecchia stazione non poteva più far fronte all'afflusso di passeggeri.
Il laurenskerk è l'unico resto del centro medievale di Rotterdam. Il laurenskerk è un incrocio tra una chiesa a sala (tutti gli edifici sono uguali in altezza) e una basilica a croce (qui le torri laterali sono più basse della torre principale). La chiesa fu costruita tra il 1449 e il 1525.
La facciata interna del Markthal è ricoperta da un'opera d'arte di 11.000 m² (due campi da calcio) di Arno Coenen e Iris Roskam, intitolata Hoorn des Overvloeds. Questo titolo si riferisce alla Cornucopia, un corno della mitologia greca che simboleggia l'abbondanza e la saturazione. L'opera d'arte mostra frutta, verdura, cereali, pesce, fiori e insetti notevolmente ingranditi. Sullo sfondo si vede anche il Laurenskerk con la torre.
Nel Medioevo, una delle 10 porte della città che Rotterdam aveva qui. Negli anni '30, la città di Rotterdam crebbe rapidamente e il cancello si fermò, poiché volevano un flusso migliore per il traffico in aumento. Si decise di spostare il cancello di circa 100 metri (una demolizione del cancello incontrò molta resistenza). Durante i bombardamenti della seconda guerra mondiale il cancello fu gravemente danneggiato, un anno dopo il bombardamento il cancello fu demolito, perché non poteva più essere terminato. Alcune opere ornamentali dell'antica porta sono state salvate e inglobate nelle murature degli edifici ad angolo con la piazza del municipio.
Non molto del centro storico è rimasto intatto durante la seconda guerra mondiale, ma l'Oude Haven è fortunatamente uno di quei luoghi storici che si sono conservati. Nel porto ci sono barche storiche e affascinanti, mentre sulle banchine troverai un colorato mix di edifici.
La casa bianca fu costruita nel 1889 e con un'altezza di 43 metri il primo grattacielo in Belgio, Paesi Bassi e Lussemburgo.
Attualmente, l'incontro è uno degli hotspot di Rotterdam. Ci sono molti caffè, ristoranti e negozi di abbigliamento. È anche una strada dove si tratta un po' di vedere ed essere visti.

Our tour guide Jess was very informative . We enjoyed the tour and beautiful weather. Jess was very engaging and full of knowledge of Rotterdam.
We were able to set the start time for our tour & when we met Jess, she was able to customise what we wanted to see & do. Jess contacted us the night before to confirm our tour/time/meeting point & that morning, she gave us more specifics & was on time. Jess’ English was impeccable! She had so much knowledge & was able to give us a personal touch. What was included was just enough to get a Dutch experience including riding the metro & trams, sampling Dutch fries, going through the cube apts, walking through the old port, seeing various architectures building etc. We couldn’t have asked for more. What a treat it was!
Thank you so much for your amazing 5star review! We're so happy to hear that you had such a great time exploring Rotterdam with Jess. Her day is made to know that her knowledge, enthusiasm, and personal approach made your experience so memorable. It’s fantastic that you enjoyed the flexibility of the private tour and experienced so many highlights—from traveling like a local on the metro and trams to tasting Dutch fries, visiting the Cube Houses, strolling through the Old Harbour, and discovering Rotterdam's unique architecture. Thank you again for choosing TourGuys and for taking the time to share your experience. We hope to welcome you back to Rotterdam again someday! Truly, Team TourGuys
We enjoyed this walking tour with Jess as she gave us a good amount of Rotterdam history. She met us at the port and also brought us back with a few train rides and a good deal of walking along the way. We made a stop for coffee/latte, however there was no lunch or street food as advertised when we booked. The tour took about 4 hours.
Thank you for your review, Andy! We're grateful to hear you enjoyed exploring Rotterdam with Jessica and that you appreciated her knowledge of the city's history. It's great to know the pickup from the port and the combination of walking and public transport made for an enjoyable experience. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the food stop. We apologize that this didn't match your expectations. We'll review this with our team to ensure our tour description and the experience are fully aligned going forward. Thank you again for choosing TourGuys, and we hope to welcome you back to Rotterdam in the future!
the tour guide arrived over 15 min late and told us he lost his bag on the subway with his wallet, keys, and tickets. He could not take us on the tour. He left and came back 1/2 hr later saying that he accepted his fate and could start the tour but would extend 1 hr later than planned. We were very disappointed and did not get the tour. we called viator to ask for our money back. the local tour company did not answer their phone- we had hoped that they could send a replacement .
Dear Nancy, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're truly sorry that your day started this way and completely understand your disappointment. This was an extremely rare and unforeseen situation. Our guide unfortunately lost his bag on the metro while traveling to the meeting point. Despite the stress of losing his wallet, keys, and personal belongings, he came to meet your group, explained the situation transparently, and asked whether a short delay would be acceptable while he contacted the public transport company's Lost & Found service. After returning within the agreed timeframe, he was fully prepared to conduct your private tour and even offered to extend it by an additional hour so you would still receive the complete experience. Unfortunately, by then your group had decided not to continue. We also apologize that you were unable to reach us by phone. We missed Viator's call and immediately tried calling back, but were unable to get through the automated phone system. While we regret that this exceptional circumstance affected your visit, we appreciate your feedback and wish you a wonderful remainder of your travels. Kind regards, The TourGuys Team

Our guide was very knowledgeable, took plenty of time to answer any questions we had. He was also very friendly. This was our first trip to Rotterdam so it gave us a nice introduction to the city.

Jamal was worth a 5 star review for personality & knowledge. Really a great guide. Only reason for 4 star was that the tour was to include a street food lunch which we didn't get. There ended up being 8 of our friends that joined our group.
Hi Scott, Thank you for your review, feedback and for your kind words about Jamal. We're grateful to hear that you enjoyed his personality, knowledge, and guiding style. Jamal is passionate about Rotterdam and loves sharing the city's stories with visitors, so we're happy that made such a positive impression on your group. Regarding the street food lunch, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will look into what happened on that day, as the inclusions should always match what is advertised and what guests expect when booking, which in this case actually is a local snack and not a lunch but I get your point. As for the group size, we're glad your friends were able to join and enjoy the experience together. One of the advantages of our tours is the flexibility to accommodate larger parties, allowing friends and family to explore Rotterdam as a group while still enjoying a personal experience. Thank you again for your feedback. Reviews like yours help us continue improving, and we hope to welcome you back to Rotterdam in the future. Truly, Izzy The TourGuys Team
Mo was our guide and he was incredible. We knew very little about the city and learned so much. The tour was perfect for us. We had an infant with us and the timing and Mo, our guide, was a perfect fit. The tour size gave us time and attention to ask questions and not feel rushed. Mo answered all of our questions and was personable, professional, and very knowledgeable. The communication leading up to the trip was great and would highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, John! We are so happy to hear that you had such a great day exploring Rotterdam with Mo. One of the things we value most at TourGuys is creating a personal experience where guests have the time and space to ask questions, connect with their guide, and discover the city at a comfortable pace. We're especially happy that the tour worked well for your family and your infant. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Mo — he'll be thrilled to hear it. Thank you as well for mentioning our communication and organization; our team works hard behind the scenes to make every tour run smoothly from start to finish. We hope to welcome you back to Rotterdam someday! Warm regards, The TourGuys Team
