Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Rotterdam may have been completely destroyed during War World II, but it is now a large and famous port city that is prominently featured on many cruise itineraries. Though many of Rotterdam’s historic buildings were lost during bomb raids, its neighboring city Amsterdam is only an hour’s drive, and still retains many of its old-world architecture. Rotterdam is a bit more modern than Amsterdam, and is filled with contemporary architecture, museums, cafes, diverse cuisine, and a few historical sites that managed to survive its gloomy past. Shuttles will transport you from the port terminal to the city center, which is very walkable once you arrive. Like Amsterdam, Rotterdam is also a very bikeable city, and is a great way to make your experience unique.
