The clash point of traditional and avant-garde architecture styles (cube houses); the greenest city of Netherlands; drink a coffee at lowest Dutch point below sea level (-7. 67 m); one completely different Red Light District

Unique and the only in Netherlands authentic location with 19 windmills - the 19 guardians and story tellers of the old times. These still persisting and in service "water management stewards" gonna tell you the story about the cat who saved one young human life.

Alex is the best guide we’ve ever had & we’ve had many. He kept us informed before we met in Rotterdam. He is so knowledgeable and obviously proud of his city. It seemed every local knew him!! He took us to Kinderdijk and gave us a tour of Rotterdam, and even included the delicious patatje oorlog (loaded French fries)! Do not hesitate to book with Alex! You will not be disappointed!!
We really enjoyed this...

We really enjoyed this tour. Alex did a great job of pointing out all of the sites. He was very knowledgeable about Rotterdam, Kinderdijk and the history of these locations. Both places are very walkable (this tour would not be a good option if you have mobility concerns). We would highly recommend this tour!!
Wonderful Day with Alex

My husband and I spent the day with Alex touring Kinderdijk and Rotterdam. We met Alex at the Brussels train station. He recommended going to see the windmills of Kinderdijk first which was great. Alex spoke a lot about the history of Rotterdam and the windmills during our boat ride to Kinderdijk. He is very knowledgeable and enjoyed all of his discussions. He was very attentive to us and we moved at an easy pace. We really enjoyed the Kinderdijk area and moved on to Rotterdam. We enjoyed local beer and frites just as the locals. It was a full day and Alex kept us interested and we were very happy to spend the day with him! I would highly recommend Alex and his tour!
Amazing spring sunny day with Alex in Rotterdam and windmill area Kinderdijk. Just do it !

Just do it! My family and I (my husband and 3 kids) , we spent great ( fortunately sunny !!!) day with Alex two days ago. We are in modern architecture (Rotterdam is right place or it) and we came from Brussels by train ( very good and nice train connection). Kids were marveled by windmills and animals they saw in this area.. :) I have no other words, simply, Alex was great! Big knowledge about history of Netherlands (and Lowlands at all) in particular Rotterdam, he provided us plenty of information about meaning of polders, windmills, water management in Netherlands.. We were invited to taste local snack " potatoes war" ... :) We got even much more information about Belgium ( and we regret because we didn't contact and hire this guy even earlier (he organize tours in Belgium and Luxembourg as well). Transportation by water taxi from Rotterdam to Kinderdijk and back was also insured ( included in tour price) by this guy so we had less concerns about it. The best recommendations regarding this tour. Alex we wish you lot of success further! James and Danielle Richmond
Excellent day with Aleks in Rotterdam

What an incredible day my husband and I had with our guide Aleks. He was so full of information and we could see the joy he had in sharing it with us and showing us his city. We took a boat ride to see the windmills in Kinderjik and spent the rest of the day touring Rotterdam. We stopped for lunch and took time to get to know each other. I highly recommend his tour.
