4.00Boat tour of a good duration (75 min), departure on time, interesting. The only small downside is that since the information is given in several languages, sometimes the sight to see has already passed by the time the explanations are given in French.

5.00We decided to take this tour during a day trip to Rotterdam and it didn't disappoint. Board near the park on a sturdy old vessel to enjoy an educational tour of the harbour. It was a hot day, boat served cold beer. What more do you need 😊
Make an extended harbour tour

5.00I can recommend the extended harbour tour which brings you to one of the biggest harbours in the world. This, in combination with a view of Rotterdam from the river gives you a comprehensive idea of the city. The tour lasts 2,5 hours, but time goes by rather quickly as there is so much to see. Explanation is given in Dutch, English, German and French, inside and on the deck of the boat. Food and drinks are available on board.
Disappointing, never again
