What To Expect
Kijk-Kubus
In the 70s of the 20th century, architects wanted to create hospitable residential areas with the participation of the residents and other users in response to the large-scale and a gray modernism of the architecture of the reconstruction after WWII.
Luchtsingel
In 2011, the municipality of Rotterdam organized the first city initiative, an administrative instrument to stimulate administrative innovation and citizen participation. The inhabitants of Rotterdam were called upon to submit projects that would bring about the enlivening of the city and improve the quality of life in the city. An amount of 4 million has been set aside from the city initiative to implement the project.

Unfortunate tour guide issue
Nancy M,Jul 2, 2026
- Review from Viator
1.00the tour guide arrived over 15 min late and told us he lost his bag on the subway with his wallet, keys, and tickets. He could not take us on the tour. He left and came back 1/2 hr later saying that he accepted his fate and could start the tour but would extend 1 hr later than planned. We were very disappointed and did not get the tour. we called viator to ask for our money back. the local tour company did not answer their phone- we had hoped that they could send a replacement .
What a great experience with Jamal!

4.00Jamal was worth a 5 star review for personality & knowledge. Really a great guide. Only reason for 4 star was that the tour was to include a street food lunch which we didn't get. There ended up being 8 of our friends that joined our group.
Great day in Rotterdam.

5.00Mo was our guide and he was incredible. We knew very little about the city and learned so much. The tour was perfect for us. We had an infant with us and the timing and Mo, our guide, was a perfect fit. The tour size gave us time and attention to ask questions and not feel rushed. Mo answered all of our questions and was personable, professional, and very knowledgeable. The communication leading up to the trip was great and would highly recommend it.
Very happy for this tour!!

5.00Jamaal was an excellent guide on this three + hour walking tour of Rotterdam. He was very knowledgeable, courteous, and prompt. We learned a great deal about the city, its history, people and culture. Two highlights that we especially enjoyed were the Cube houses and the Market Hall. I would highly recommend this trip, as well as Jamaal, if you would like to spend a few hours learning all about this historic and beautiful city!

5.00Our time with Eleftheria...El was fantastic. She showed us her hometown of Rotterdam with such genuine enthusiasm that it made the experience even more enjoyable. She also introduced us to an amazing coffee shop, fantastic food, artwork, and beautiful buildings, which was a real highlight. She even scored us a water taxi to show us around via the water. El really went above and beyond!
Great tour and best guide;)

5.00We got a nice little insight into the architecture and life in Rotterdam in half a day. Our wonderful guide Stella played a big part in this, who brought us closer to her current adopted home with her open nature and a lot of charm. We say thank you and always gladly. P&C
