10 days in Rotterdam Itinerary

Located in the South Holland province, Rotterdam is one of the Netherlands' most lively cities, as well as one of the largest trading ports in the world.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen and Airborne Museum at Hartenstein. Get a sense of the local culture at National Military Museum and Dutch Pinball Museum. Venture out of the city with trips to Dordrecht (Grote Kerk & Dordrechts Museum), Het Noordbrabants Museum (in Den Bosch) and Leiden (Rijksmuseum Boerhaave & Museum Volkenkunde). There's much more to do: admire the masterpieces at Wereldmuseum, steep yourself in history at Muurhuizen, examine the collection at Natuurmuseum Brabant, and take in the spiritual surroundings of Sint Janskerk.
