Discover Rotterdam: Classic Highlights Bike Tour with a Local

Discover the vibrant city of Rotterdam on this exciting ±3-hour bike tour. We start at the cultural hub "OASE", where you'll meet your guide at "Give a Bike", a local grassroots organisation that gives old bicycles a second life and supports the community. The space is also home to a small pop-up bicycle museum, featuring a collection of historic and unusual bikes that adds to the unique character of the starting point. From there, you'll cycle to some of Rotterdam's most famous landmarks and historic places while learning about the city's unique history, modern architecture, and local culture. Because we have only recently started, we currently have around 15 bikes and usually run our tours with small groups. We are often not fully booked, giving you more personal attention and the chance to get to know your guide and fellow cyclists. Our prices may be slightly higher than some of our competitors, but in return you can enjoy a more relaxed, personal, and enjoyable experience.
