About this activity

We will see examples of utopian architecture - cubic houses, autonomous buildings providing energy and water to sustain themselves, futuristic church, constructor-house, the most magnificent market in the world, majestic Maas, hooligan-gnome, Kind Ladybug, the biggest art object in the country and so much more. We'll talk about contemporary architecture, fantastic innovative, social and eco-projects. But we are not forgetting about the city's past. And we will also show you how it feels to live in Rotterdam today.

We'll try to find local sights by their nicknames and discover the mystery of the town hall. We'll get to know why the great humanist still scares children. You can be sure that we'll also try the tastiest food Rotterdam has to offer - starting from fritters and ending with local sausages and herring. And of course, we will take some great pictures too!

We will be happy to show you our favorite and most interesting spots in this amazing city. See you in Rotterdam!

Rotterdam

15 min

Roof farm. Rotterdam is a city of future and roof farm proves that these are not mere words. Learn about wonders of technical thought that makes an ordinary roof into a lovely garden with fruits, vegetables and even beehives.
City Hall Rotterdam

15 min

City hall (Stadhuis) is one of the few places surviving the 1940 destruction. It is a marvellous piece of architecture, not typical for Rotterdam, that creates a sharp contrast with the rest of the city. Through discussing the architecture and its history we will get a deeper understanding of Rotterdam’s history.
Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk

15 min

Grote of Sint-Laurenskerk is the oldest remaining building in Rotterdam with its roots going back to the end of the 14th century. This church has seen it all, from Erasmus Rotterdam to Eurovision and is ready to share even more information once we get there!

Stop 7

15 min Admission not included

New York has Statue of Liberty. Paris has Eiffel Tower. Rotterdam has Cubic Houses. Weirdly shaped and bizarrely coloured it can not help itself but attract people. Why are those houses cubic? Are there people actually living inside? We will talk about all of it and more.
Oude Haven

15 min

Old Harbour is in our humble opinion the most picturesque sight in Rotterdam. With colossal bridges looming in the background and old harbour with its cozy bars and barges at the front- it is hard to skip this place.
