With the whisper boat through the Maritime District
Complete your museum outing with a round trip through the old city harbours with our whisper boat. Along the way, the captain tells the story of this area and shows you the most beautiful spots.
Discover Rotterdam’s city harbours, from Leuvehaven to Wijnhaven, Oudehaven and Haringvliet. A historic place, because this is where the port of Rotterdam once began.
Practical information
Ask about the possibilities at the Maritime Museum front desk.
- When: If the weather allows and the skipper is aboard, we sail from April 1 to October 31, and during most school holidays.
- Duration: the trip takes about 45 minutes.
- Cost: Adults: €6.50 | Children aged 4 to 15: €4.50 | Children up to 3 years: €2.50
- Where to buy? Tickets are available exclusively at the museum ticket desk. We depend on volunteer skippers, so we cannot guarantee that sailings take place every day.
Be quick, because there are only a limited number of round trips per day and once they’re full, that’s that!
Please note: the electric boat operates only when weather conditions permit and a skipper is available.
Our electric boat is also available for hire. Would you like to enjoy a private tour with your family, colleagues, or friends? Check here for the options.
