Rotterdam city tour in German & English

Overview

This up-and-coming city has captivated me for seven years. Rotterdam, also known as "Manhattan on the Maas", impresses with its modern architecture, breathtaking skyscraper silhouettes and idyllic rivers. During our exploration tour together, I will introduce you to the diversity of this city. We will visit places of interest ranging from history & culture to art & vibrant city life. Discover the internationality that characterizes Rotterdam and learn more about the architectural and maritime background, such as the smart interaction between the city and its port, which makes it an important economic center, as well as the water management, for which Rotterdam is world-famous. Rotterdam is full of surprises, as we will see. During and after the tour, I will be happy to provide further tips and tailor-made recommendations for your further stay!
