Cruise

Spido

Experience the most innovative port in the world! In the middle of the busy traffic of inland and seagoing vessels, you will experience a special tour through one of the largest seaports in the world. You will see the impressive skyline with imposing buildings glide past you, followed by a unique view of wharves, docks and the hypermodern transshipment of thousands of containers. Finally, you will sail past the steamship Rotterdam, the former flagship of the Holland America Line.

You play in PLAYWIJCK. Until you almost drop. Take the Haven playground with spray park: you're guaranteed to get soaked! And in the traffic garden you can drive around like a seasoned road pirate. Is it dog weather? Then rampage inside the House in the Hill. In DIERENWIJCK it is a real beastly mess. You hear that. You see that. And you smell that. To recover from all the running and romping, you can stretch out in WANDELWIJCK.
