Get your discount tickets for the Rotterdam's Highlights and History: A Self-Guided Audio Tour, save up to 9% !
Overview
It’s no coincidence that Rotterdam was included in the prestigious 2025 New York Times list of 52 Places to Go. This beautiful Dutch city is brimming with fascinating stories and interesting sites – if you know where to look. On this walking tour, you’ll get a broad overview of the ‘must-see’ places, as well as the little things of interest that most visitors miss. The tour starts near the Erasmus Bridge. From there, you’ll have a chance to explore the many fascinating sights Rotterdam has to offer, like old streets and harbors, super modern architecture, historic statues, medieval churches, and so much more! I’ll also share the unconventional nickname of Paul McCarthy’s Santa Claus sculpture. The tour ends with a bang in front of the city’s most spectacular modern architectural landmark, the Art Depot of the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum. By the end of this tour, you will have learned lots of interesting new things and had a chance to appreciate Rotterdam even more.
