May 14, 1940: A devastating watershed in the history of Rotterdam. Within fifteen minutes the city center was bombed to the ground by the Nazis. The Second World War and the much-needed post-war reconstruction period are strongly intertwined into the identity of Rotterdam. Your experienced tour guide will explain why the bombardment took place and show you buildings which survived the bombing. During this tour you will also visit The Destroyed City, the most important war memorial in Rotterdam.

Voor de verjaardag van mijn vader - die het bombardement als 8-jarige heeft meegemaakt - zijn we met Hans op stap geweest. Was een supermiddag met een wandeling op maat met voldoende rustmomenten. Hans wist veel te vertellen en stond ook open voor aanvullingen en reacties van de ooggetuige. Absolute aanrader!

Wij zijn met ons gezin met Hans op pad geweest door Rotterdam en zijn helemaal enthousiast over de manier waarop hij de tour gaf. Hij vertelde op een mooie, boeiende manier over Rotterdam tijdens de oorlog en wat daar nog van terug te zien is. Je gaat hierdoor op een andere manier naar de stad kijken. Hij is gezellig en makkelijk in de omgang. Kortom leerzaam, interessant en een echte aanrader!!
