5.00Our guide, a Rotterdam native, was very knowledgeable of the history of Rotterdam. I learned so much about how history, in particular WWII, influenced the mix of old and new in this beautiful port city.

5.00Yoreh was a terrific tour guide! His 3-hour tour included many must-sees in central Rotterdam and provided succinct historical context, often using photos showing before-and-after views. He knows Rotterdam well and was very willing to answer our questions about stops on the tour, as well as how to navigate the city.
A tour you must take if visiting Rotterdam!
