I'll walk through the main streets and buildings of Rotterdam such old as new ones telling a little about the history of the city and some curiosities.
We will start our tour next to the Erasmus bridge one of the main symbols of the city. After that we will continue our tour through the Boijmans Museum, Rotterdam Central Station, Lijnbaan (shopping street), City Hall, Laurenskerk, Markthal, Cube Houses and the Old Port of Rotterdam.
We will finish our tour next to the other main bridge of the city, the Willems bridge.
I'll perform my tours on weekends at 9h00 and at 13h00. I can do both in English and Portuguese so you can book any time that suits better for you.
I'm not a professional tour guide so I'll perform my tour as I would do for my friends and family.
Normally I do my tours for small groups, max. 5 people. If you are interested in joining with more people or even in a different time please just contact me.
I hope you can enjoy the special vibe that runs in this city such as I do! See you soon in Rotterdam!
I'm Nuno, 39 years old. Originally from Portugal but living in the Netherlands since 2018. I've been working in hospitality for long time (hotels) but nowadays I work as a warehouse operator. Because I miss my "hospitality soul" I've decided to turn my free time doing walking tours through the city. Always loved Rotterdam! Came here a few times before visiting and since the first time i always wanted to live here. Just felt in love with this city😍
I hope I can show you a little bit from my city and you like it!

My friends and I had a great morning with Nuno, he was very friendly and knowledgeable about Rotterdam and happily answered all our questions along the way.
I’d like to thank him for going above and beyond for our group, as when the tour was over, he took us to The Splash tour where we’d booked tickets. It was quite a walk and a metro ride away so really appreciated this, as he didn’t have to.
However, I’m afraid to say that despite his best efforts to reassure me that going to the top of the Euromast would be great, the views would fantastic, and I had nothing to worry about (I had told him I was scared of heights) I only managed the first level 😔The wind was howling, the rain was beating down and I just couldn’t get myself into the lift to go to the top when it was time. Sorry Nuno but thanks for trying!
PS My friends who went to the top said it was amazing and well worth it.
From A
Rotterdam walking tour - Nuno our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and very considerate. His knowledge was brilliant and very interesting. The tour lasted 2-3 hours and Nuno also helped our group with directions and in using the metro.
I would highly recommend Nuno as your guide and would give 6 out of 5 stars 😀

My review of Nuno: Nuno was very informative and knew a lot about the history of Rotterdam. He was friendly and got on with all of our group and answered all of our questions. We had booked the splash tour for the afternoon and we weren't sure how to get there so instead of just giving us directions, Nuno came with us on the Metro and walked with us all the way to where we got the bus. He was still telling us information as we made our way there. He made the whole experience very enjoyable and we felt that we had made a friend instead of just being a tour guide. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to find out more about the history and architecture of Rotterdam.

Fantastic walking tour with Nuno – highly recommend!
We had a wonderful time exploring Rotterdam with Nuno! He was incredibly friendly, welcoming and accommodating, and happily answered all our questions. His passion for the city really shone through, and his knowledge of Rotterdam and its history was truly impressive. We learnt so much and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Nuno really helped make our trip to Rotterdam memorable. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone visiting the city!
From M
I can truly say that Nuno went above and beyond what we expected as a tour guide.
He was absolutely brilliant!!
I will be recommending him to all my overseas guests.
Dank je wel Nuno

He was also very attentive throughout the tour and cared about making sure everyone had a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

Man hat gespürt, dass Nuno sich zu 100 % mit "seiner" Stadt identifiziert. Die Tour war sehr kurzweilig, wir haben versteckte Orte entdeckt und einige Anekdoten gehört. Zum Abschied gab es sogar noch ein Geschenk !
