Great time and great tour. Guide was great!! Saw a lot of Rotterdam in a small amount of time. Very organized and manageable for all biking levels.

Alice was awesome! Could not have asked for a better way to spend an afternoon in Rotterdam. The bikes are well maintained and the route was easy on the pedal bikes ( even for mom). We got alot of fun information and helped up plan the things we wanted to explore after the tour. Can not recommend this trip enough. Thanks again Alice for making our trip so special.

Perfect way to explore the city.

Christel_D, Sep 2025
Perfect way to explore the city in a limited amount of time, especially with such a great guide as Flora.

Margaret_G, Jun 2025
The ride was very pleasant and gave you a feel of daily life of the people of Rotterdam. Neils(spelling)? was very knowledgeable about the city and we saw many of the city’s famous spots. Even got to ride over the Erasmus bridge (very windy) which offered a wonderful view. All in all it was a great choice to feel the city not as a tourist but almost as a resident!

An Absolute must-do in Rotterdam!

Andrea_N, Jun 2025
What a fun way to see the city. Join the locals and bike to all the sites, our guide, an absolute gem of a man, full of interesting commentary and history lessons, who produced stroopwaffles for a power boost near the end of the tour.

A great little tour of the city's highlights!

Alan_B, Dec 2024
A great way to see a lot of the city in a short space of time - the guide was excellent, and really knew her stuff! The 'refreshment stop', which happened later in the tour (a 'Craft' brewery), was great - just what one needed after pedalling those few miles! Would certainly do another of these tours when we go back next time....

Friendly, Fun Education

Jonathan_B, Sep 2024
Excellent views of the city. Adrianna was great very friendly and with a great knowledge of her city

The Best Couple Hours We've Had in Rotterdam So Far!

Phil_H, Sep 2024
This is a most excellent tour! Our guide was knowledgeable, articulate, funny and proud of Rotterdam. Now we are also proud of Rotterdam! You will see and learn cool things about the city I bet some locals don't even know.

Fun bike tour!

Linda_L, Aug 2024
Loved that we got to see so much of the city & could then figure out where we wanted to go back to and spend more time. Frank was an excellent tour guide. He gave us lots of interesting information!

Susan_L, Jul 2024
The bicycles were excellent, light and easy to handle and although the oldest in the group we found the route and the pace very easy to manage. Our guide was very friendly and informative, we enjoyed the tour very much.

Superb!

Camilla_B, Jul 2024

Alanna_F, Jun 2024
Our guide was genuinely enthusiastic about the city, its history and beautiful buildings/sites. A great tour and way to learn about Rotterdam.

Interesting fun

Chris_B, Jun 2024
We had a tremendous time, Ariane was super friendly and made the tour a fun and really interesting experience. I would highly recommend it, a great way to get to know the city.

Bike like and with a Local.

Laurie_R, May 2024
Our tour guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and just very nice! You will see so much of Rotterdam on this tour and learn how the City is changing. I enjoyed riding through the neighborhoods that survived the war unscathed and seeing the beautiful architecture. Biking is the best way to know a City, and your tour guide is a local expert. 5 Stars!

Excellent! The guides are...

Gregory_F, Apr 2024
Excellent! The guides are awesome and passionate about what they do. Highly recommended as a first tour around the city to get a feel and understanding of the city before doing anything else.

You have to do this!

Adam_T, May 2023
Ariane led us in an insightful and interesting tour; amazingly patient and full of interesting tidbits on the culture and attitude of Rotterdam

Response from Host, May 2023

Hi Adam, thank you for this nice review! Happy to hear that you enjoyed it and it was really nice meeting you. All best! Ariane

Highly recommend!

Paul_A, May 2023
Our guide Ariane was very knowledgeable. She was helpful with all of our questions. Great at pointing out things we would have probably missed without her. She also made the entire ride fun. Would definitely ride with her again.

Response from Host, May 2023

Hi Paul, thank you for this review, very much appreciated! It was lovely to meet you and your wife and take you on a bike ride. Wishing you all best, Ariane

heatherr, Jun 2016
Fabulous tour - small group so was very easy to manage. Really informative guide - thanks Ariane - lots of information provided that other Rotterdam tours didn't give us. This has been a highlight of our six weeks away from home travelling Europe. So good to be getting some physical activity while understanding the city, it's history and current lifestyle. We highly recommend this tour. We now have places we want to return to in our time to sit and soak up the atmosphere, Great experience Ariane.

Begin je Citytrip met deze fietstour!

Bo_D, May 2019
Wij hadden deze fietstour geboekt aan het begin van onze citytrip. Zo hadden we een beter idee wat we nadien zeker nog in detail moesten bezoeken. We zagen veel meer van Rotterdam dan we hadden kunnen doen te voet en zonder gids. Toch werd alles op een rustig tempo gedaan en met een leuke uitleg. Claire was een super gids! Deze tocht is echt een aanrader.
