About
The highlights of Rotterdam from the water
Step on board for a 1-hour cruise on the Nieuwe Maas, which flows through the city centre of Rotterdam. Along the way you’ll have the best views of the characteristic architecture found in the city and city’s best sights.
A live guide on board will tell you all the ins and outs of the sights you’ll pass on the sailing route. The sights will include the famous SS Rotterdam, as the former flagship of the Holland-America Line it used to sail the seven seas; the silver Erasmus Bridge and the dark red Willems Bridge, the city’s two most important modern bridges; the Witte Huis (White House), Europe’s oldest high-rise building dating back to 1898; and other attractions not to be missed.
Sit back and relax
The River Cruise is the perfect opportunity to get off your feet and enjoy some Rotterdam sightseeing. Find yourself a seat in the cosy saloon or on the sun deck, the number of seats outside is limited and they cannot be reserved. There is a bar on board where you can purchase drinks and snacks during the cruise.

Well worth our specific journey!
We went on the full day cruise to Futureland run by Spido. To get a table on the upper deck you need to queue a long time ahead of departure but we saw everything well enough from the lower deck. Seating was comfortable, there was more than enough food: the buffet lunch was replenished & was very tasty. A good selection of drinks can be ordered. We saw the miles and miles of docks, huge barges, vast areas of petrochemicals & the very biggest container ships as well as millions of containers. At the Futureland exhibition there were excellent explanations of the creation of this land & the environmental management required. Very impressive. For this later part of the cruise there was an English commentary otherwise it was all in Dutch. When the staff realised that we were English we were well looked after.
Great harbour tour
Captain John was first class. Tour was interesting. Could buy beer on board. Sat up top in sunshine. Great history of the port of Rotterdam
Vandaag mee geweest met de River Cruise, wat een geweldige ervaring!
John en Luciano maakten de tocht echt onvergetelijk. Hun enthousiasme en plezier waren aanstekelijk vanaf het eerste moment. John stond op het dek met boeiende verhalen en bijzondere inzichten over Rotterdam. Hij nam de tijd voor vragen én voor een leuk persoonlijk praatje. Je voelde aan alles dat hij dit met passie doet, het werkplezier spatte ervan af! Een ontspannen, leerzame én gezellige tour over het water door het prachtige Rotterdam. Zeker een aanrader voor zowel locals als bezoekers!
