The windmills of Kinderdijk were reached the way the Dutch always travelled: over water. This four-hour shore excursion starts and ends at the Rotterdam cruise terminal and is planned around your ship's actual docking and departure times.

Your guide meets you at the terminal exit, and a private boat takes you up the river, past the port and the Rotterdam skyline, to Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The ride takes about 30 minutes.

On a guided walk among the windmills, you hear how the Dutch kept this low land dry. You take a boat ride along the canal past the row of mills, step inside an 18th-century museum windmill and visit the Wisboomgemaal pumping station. Then there is free time for photos or a coffee at the visitor centre.

The boat brings you straight back to the cruise terminal, with no road traffic between you and your ship.

Sted

Cruise Terminal Rotterdam, Wilhelminakade 699, Rotterdam, Netherlands

Møtested:

Your guide waits at the cruise terminal exit (Wilhelminakade 699), under the roof, straight in front of the door you come out of, holding a white sign. When it is busy, the port barriers may send you to the right first; the guide then stands outside the barrier. You receive your guide's name and mobile number the day before.
