Rotterdam Shore Excursions - Kinderdijk, Delft & The Hague

Rotterdam's cruise terminal sits along the Nieuwe Maas river, centrally located within the city and close to the Erasmus Bridge and downtown landmarks. Your private guide meets you at the terminal with a name sign.

The Kinderdijk Windmills and Gouda Cheese day tour is one of our most requested Rotterdam itineraries - a full day pairing the UNESCO-listed Kinderdijk windmills with an afternoon Gouda Cheese Experience in the historic cheese-market town of Gouda.

Kinderdijk is about 15 kilometers southeast of Rotterdam, roughly 20 to 25 minutes by private vehicle. Its 19 windmills, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are a signature stop on our Rotterdam countryside tours.

Yes. Delft is about 15 kilometers northwest of Rotterdam, roughly 20 to 25 minutes by private vehicle, and The Hague is about 25 kilometers away, roughly 30 to 35 minutes. Both are commonly combined on a full day tour, along with a lunch stop at the beach resort of Scheveningen.

No - our Tulip Time in Holland tour to the Keukenhof Gardens is only available in spring, during the annual tulip bloom. Keukenhof is roughly 55 to 60 kilometers from Rotterdam, about an hour by private vehicle.

Our back-to-ship guarantee means that if an unforeseen delay during your private Rotterdam shore excursion prevents you from returning to the cruise pier before your ship departs, we will arrange and cover the cost of transportation to your next port of call. This guarantee applies to all private Rotterdam and Netherlands tours booked through us. Your tour must be scheduled to return to the ship 1.5 hours prior to ship departure.
