Architecture boat trip through Rotterdam
2007 was the year of architecture in Rotterdam. Because of that party ship “Jorina” developed a boat trip, at which you will be introduced to the variety of architecture in Rotterdam. Because of the overwhelming succes of these trips, we have enclosed this into our services.
From the water you will have a special opportunity to discover and admire the old and the new of the city of Rotterdam.
During this boat trip a multilingual guide will inform you about the architecture of Rotterdam and also about the Rotterdam harbour.
This architecture boat trip will be combined with a lunch or a dinner as a buffet.
The departure will be from the berth of the “Jorina” at the Leuvehaven.
We navigate along the Maritiem Museum in the direction of the van Brienenoordbrug, by way of the Noordereiland.
In this part of the trip we go along the Unilever building along Kralingen/ De Esch-Watertoren and Feijenoord. On the way back you will have a tremendous view of the skyline of Rotterdam on which architects like Cees Dam, Renzo Piano and Sir Norman Foster had a large influence. We will navigate along De Kop van Zuid.

Then we will navigate along Hotel New York. This was the former head office and the embarking and disembarking place of the Holland America Line. The next location we will navigate to is the Rijnhaven where the new Luxor Theater is located.
