Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Iconic architecture and market life

Cycle past Rotterdam’s modern landmarks — think Erasmus Bridge, the Cube Houses and the Markthal — and stop for photos or a market snack whenever the mood strikes.

THE GEAR

City bikes and e‑bike options

Comfortable city bikes and e‑bikes are available so riders of different levels can choose a relaxed or assisted ride and cover more ground with less effort.

THE DISCOVERY

Hidden streets, art and parks

Renting a bike makes it easy to leave the main arteries and find colorful street art, quiet parks and local cafés that many visitors miss.
