Private Tours • Local Stories • Personal Service
Thanks for stopping by! I’m your private guide here in Rotterdam, the city where I was born and raised.
I love introducing visitors to the places, stories and people that make Rotterdam such a fascinating city. Every tour is private and personally tailored around your interests, your pace and the time you have available.
Relax, enjoy the day, and let me show you Rotterdam through the eyes of a local.
Spend the day exploring Rotterdam in depth, or combine the city with another Dutch destination. Both experiences are private, personally planned and available as five or eight-hour tours.
Experience Rotterdam as a city with many layers. The Signature Tour connects its modern architecture, maritime history, historic neighbourhoods and everyday character through the stories behind the places you visit.
Begin in Rotterdam and continue to another place you would like to discover. Your route can include Delft, Gouda, Brielle, The Hague, the Dutch coast or a different destination suited to your interests and available time.
Combine Rotterdam with the windmills of Kinderdijk or historic Schiedam and experience two very different sides of the Netherlands during a private five or eight-hour journey.
Combine Rotterdam with the UNESCO World Heritage landscape of Kinderdijk and discover how centuries of living with water have shaped this remarkable part of the Netherlands.
Discover two neighbouring cities that could hardly feel more different, combining Rotterdam's bold modern architecture with Schiedam's historic canals, giant windmills and centuries-old distilling heritage.
Discover a city shaped by bold architecture, maritime history, distinctive neighbourhoods and the people who call Rotterdam home.
Explore landmarks such as the Markthal and discover the ideas behind Rotterdam’s distinctive modern skyline.
Walk through the Oude Haven and hear how Rotterdam’s relationship with the river and harbour shaped the city.
Discover murals, hidden courtyards and creative places that reveal another side of Rotterdam beyond its famous landmarks.
See the skyline from a different perspective and experience the river that continues to define Rotterdam.
These are only a few examples of what you might experience. Every private tour is shaped around your interests, so the route can focus more on architecture, history, photography, neighbourhoods or the Rotterdam harbour.

From the first enquiry until the final drop-off, you have one personal point of contact helping to coordinate the experience from start to finish.
