Harbour Bike Tour Rotterdam
Discover the impressive Port of Rotterdam on this varied and engaging bike tour. Guided by an experienced city guide, you’ll cycle along historic quays, bustling working harbors, and modern urban development projects. You won’t just see the harbor – you’ll also gain insight into its rich history, ongoing growth, and international significance.
From Historic Quays to Modern City Districts
The tour begins in the Maritime District, where the Port of Rotterdam first came to life. From here, you’ll cycle south, following the traces of the city’s harbor development. Highlights include Feijenoord, the redeveloped Kop van Zuid, and vibrant Katendrecht – areas where former harbor activities have been transformed into innovative housing, culture, and dining. Along the way, your guide shares the stories behind these transformations and shows how Rotterdam continuously reconnects the harbor with the city.
Active Harbours and Global Logistics
The second part of the route takes you into the active working harbors, where the energy and activity are still tangible. You’ll ride past the impressive Waalhaven – the largest man-made harbor basin in the world – and witness firsthand how ships are loaded and unloaded. Along the way, you’ll learn how the harbor has gradually shifted towards the sea over the centuries and evolved into a world-class logistical and industrial hub.
