Itinerary
1. "Paul McCarthy's statue of Santa Claus is one that no one wanted, but it still stands proudly in the city. He became an icon that most people in Rotterdam are proud of, we will tell you why.
2. The Art Depository (Mirror) of Boijmans Van Beuningen, along with other places in the Museum District. Here you will learn about all the museums and the Land of Hoboken.
3. Het Scheepvaartkwartier (the Maritime Quarter) is a hidden gem outside the city center; a place that many Rotterdamers do not even know. Here you will experience the feeling of openness and spaciousness of this beautiful port city! From the banks of the Maas River, you can see the New York Hotel, Rotterdam Steam and Erasmusbrug.
4. 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.
5. In the Maritime District you will find many centuries-old ships, the last of their kind. We’ll walk through this open-air museum, and you’ll feel like you’ve gone back in time!
6. One of the most important statues of the city of Rotterdam in connection with the Second World War, in 1940 Square, with much significance and history.
7. The Old Port is one of the oldest ports in the Netherlands and also very welcoming! From here, we have a great view of the Cube Houses, which we will see up close at our next stop!
