My guide, Susan, was like a good friend, showing me the city. I enjoyed the tour so much! Susan was so knowledgeable about the various buildings, and the best places for getting gifts for my grandchildren. I highly recommend this tour, and especially Susan!! Five stars for sure!

My ship's arrival was delayed to the same time my tour was to start. I texted the local contact to advise I would arrive by Uber 15 minutes late. I received a call back from Tony, advising that Uber would take too long. After discussing what would be the best way to meet my guide, Susan, he offered to pick me up in his car and drive me to her. Great service.
Susan, also was very accommodating, as my ship's late arrival caused an early departure. I had to be at the ship at the same time as the scheduled end of my tour.
We managed to get to most of the highlights, although at a fast pace.
Under constrained circumstances, Tony and Susan performed great in making my (shortrned) tour a success.

Rotterdam is a lovely city to explore. However, the tour we took was not up to the usual Viator standard. The starting point was switched on the day of the tour and the tour guide could have provided more information on the places visited. Markthal and its surrounding area where we meet were very artistic buildings but i think this was lost on the guide. We looked around Markthal centre before the walk and was most impressed with the inside of the building. I would try a walking tour again in Rotterdam and hope for a better experience.
