Discover Rotterdam

Rotterdam is a young, dynamic global city, continuously renewing itself at a rapid rate. Sparkling skyscrapers, an impressive port, trendy restaurants and food markets, renowned museums and awesome festivals are the direct result of the can-do mentality of the Rotterdammers. Add to that the many extraordinary attractions and city tours – by bike, bus, boat or on foot – and you understand why Rotterdam was voted Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2016.
Rotterdam itself has much to offer and is also the perfect base for visiting cities, nature, beaches and the attractions in the area. Get on a bike and/or take public transportation and you'll find yourself there in no time: from the capital city of Amsterdam to the royal city and seat of the government The Hague and the famous traditional Dutch windmills at Kinderdijk.
