Top!
We booked a 2-hour private walking tour to get a first impression and overview of Rotterdam. The focus was modern architecture.
Kseniya was a great guide who told us so much: history, architecture, stories behind the buildings, and a lot about everyday life in Rotterdam, such as cashless payments for simply everything. We learned an incredible amount, it was a lot of fun because Kseniya catered entirely to our needs and questions, and the time just flew by. And her tips for our remaining days were all top-notch; it couldn't be better.
