How long is the train from Amsterdam to Rotterdam?
The train journey from Amsterdam to Rotterdam typically takes around 40 to 50 minutes, depending on the type of train and any potential stops along the route. It's a fast and efficient way to travel between these two important Dutch cities, as there are not any required transfers.
Is Rotterdam worth going to?

From iconic landmarks to innovative museums, there's plenty to explore and discover in this dynamic city. Add it to your trip to the Netherlands!
Can Rotterdam be a day trip from Amsterdam?
Yes, Rotterdam can easily be enjoyed as a day trip. You can get to and from Rotterdam within an hour each way. Thanks to its proximity and efficient transportation links, you can experience the highlights of Rotterdam in just a day, including its impressive architecture, lively waterfront, and diverse culinary scene. But beware, you may like Rotterdam so much you will want to stay a few days.
Are there coffeeshops in Rotterdam?
Yes, just like in Amsterdam, Rotterdam has a thriving coffee shop scene. You can legally purchase a wide range of weed products, and you can smoke inside the shops. Have fun responsibly, but there are a few rules: alcohol is not permitted in the coffee shops, you must be over 18 years old to enter, and there is a purchase limit of 5 grams per day.
Are there direct flights between Amsterdam and Rotterdam?

Taking a car trip from Amsterdam to Rotterdam is a smart way to see the contrasts available in the Netherlands. You’ve seen Amsterdam's classical charm and romantic canals, but now it’s time to go to Rotterdam to see the economic and innovation center of the Netherlands. The modern vibe and artistic boundary-pushing expressed in Rotterdam is only 50 miles (80 km) away from the old-world charm of Amsterdam’s cobbled streets and intimate alleyways.
It is a short distance, but there is so much to see. One of the advantages of using a Daytrip private driver over a train or bus is the ability to customize your trip. Stop by little towns forgotten to time, see UNESCO World Heritage Sites, or visit artisan farms. The choice is yours, but we’ve included the most popular options!
What is a trip to the Netherlands without a visit to the windmills? A stop you should definitely add to your itinerary is the Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you can book a tour and explore two museum mills, take a boat ride along the canals that feed the windmills, and learn about the intricate network of dikes and canals that have safeguarded the Netherlands from flooding for hundreds of years. This engineering system is being studied today as a means to combat losing land to climate change as well, so while it is historic, it is also very relevant for the modern day.
Are you a foodie? If so, make a detour to Gouda, home of the famous cheese. If you are taking your trip on a Thursday between April and August, you can go to the Gouda trading market and see farmers buying and selling their cheese the old-fashioned way. Another stop to make is the Clara Maria Cheese and Clog Farm. Either way, you won't leave hungry!
About Rotterdam
As you travel from Amsterdam to Rotterdam, you will be going from the largest to the second largest cities in the Netherlands. Rotterdam has been shaped by centuries of maritime trade as a port city and a major influence during the Dutch Golden Age of Exploration. Modern Rotterdam reflects the Dutch spirit of adapting to the environment around them and building for the future.
### Rotterdam’s History
The story of Rotterdam begins in the late 13th century when a small fishing village emerged at the confluence of the Rotte River and the Nieuwe Maas. Its strategic location near the North Sea soon led to the development of a bustling port, laying the foundation for Rotterdam's sea-faring legacy.
Throughout the Middle Ages, Rotterdam flourished as a hub of trade and commerce, gaining city status in 1340. By the 17th century, the city had become one of Europe's busiest ports. Its success helped fuel the Dutch Golden Age of exploration and economic prosperity.
### Rotterdam Rebuilt
Like many areas of Western Europe, Rotterdam was unfortunately not spared during World War II. In May 1940, German forces bombed Rotterdam, leveled much of the city center, and inflicted widespread destruction on the region. In the aftermath of the war, Rotterdam faced the monumental task of rebuilding and reinventing itself from the ashes.
Rotterdam is now the capital of cool buildings, and much of its modern architectural innovation can be attributed to the post-war rebuilding period. Architects and city planners embarked on ambitious projects to reshape the cityscape, giving rise to iconic structures like the Cube Houses and the Euromast.
Amsterdam may have charmed you with its cute classical buildings, but in Rotterdam expect to see mid-century-style buildings that push the limits of modern design and engineering stability. Sharp angles, exposed scaffolding, and mirrored facades are tell-tale signs of Rotterdam’s post-war revival style. It is a far cry from Amsterdam’s historic style.
### Rotterdam Today
In recent decades, Rotterdam has undergone a cultural renaissance, with a thriving arts scene and a hotbed of innovation and creativity. The city's commitment to sustainability and resilience is evident in projects like the Rotterdam Climate Initiative, which aims to combat climate change and promote sustainable urban development.
Odds are even if you haven’t been to Rotterdam before, some of your stuff definitely has! Spanning 40 sq. miles (105 sq. km), Rotterdam is still Europe’s largest port. It handles 450 million tons of cargo from over 28,000 ships per year. It is a vital artery of global commerce and trade. From its historic maritime roots to its cutting-edge architecture and vibrant culture, Rotterdam continues to captivate visitors with its unique blend of tradition and modernity.
From Amsterdam to Rotterdam: Travel tips
We know there is always room for hiccups when traveling in new countries, but follow these travel tips and your trip from Amsterdam to Rotterdam will go as smoothly as possible.
Talk with your driver
Daytrip drivers are locals and are happy to answer any burning questions about the Dutch lifestyle, history, legends, and the best things to see and do in Rotterdam. They speak both English and Dutch (and oftentimes even more languages!) and are very informative on the local happenings.
### Book your tours ahead of time
While our drivers can get you where you need to go, the last thing you want is to arrive at your stop and find out that the tour you wanted is sold out or that an exhibition is closed for renovations. There may even be a Dutch holiday you weren’t aware of and the whole attraction will be closed. Booking your tickets ahead of time helps ensure your added detours go exactly as you would like them to go.
Also, make sure you double-check what language the tour is in, as sometimes your desired language may be sold out or only available on certain days. Don’t assume every tour will be in English, especially for more remote destinations.

Amsterdam to Rotterdam by Private Driver with Daytrip

No need to plan out a rental car, returns, or parking in one of the least car-friendly countries in the world! With Daytrip, you will be able to immediately begin your fun in Rotterdam.
### Amsterdam to Rotterdam by Train

This frequency allows you to make last-minute plans and you won’t have to worry about booking tickets ahead of time. The only thing to be aware of would be if you have a lot of luggage or would like to make diversions to smaller towns and points of interest.
### Amsterdam to Rotterdam by Bus
Amsterdam’s central bus terminal has various bus operators offering comfortable and affordable rides to Rotterdam. These cities are not far apart, so the bus is a cost-effective option for people who are comfortable riding on buses for short distances. When you book your ticket, make sure to have your luggage accurately counted and paid for to avoid any confusion and possible fees, and that the bus will have enough space!
### Amsterdam to Rotterdam by Bike
Perhaps the lowest-cost option to get from Amsterdam to Rotterdam would be by bike! Is there any more Dutch way to travel? Covering this distance of 50 miles (80 km) should take about 4 hours, and the well-marked cycling paths are easy to follow. Once you’re in Rotterdam, park your bike at one of the endless parking spots for bikes and enjoy your trip!
Things to do when you get to Rotterdam

Pick up some local cheese fromage, stroopwafels, herring, and bitterballen (breaded meatballs) while you’re here. If you’d rather have a sit-down meal, it also has 20 restaurants and shops. Make sure while you are there to look up! This stunning horseshoe-shaped building has the world’s largest artwork on the ceiling - it's the size of two football fields.
### Be Charmed by Rotterdam’s Delfshaven District
Wander through the historic district of Delfshaven. This neighborhood miraculously survived the bombings of World War II. Admire the beautifully preserved 17th-century architecture, stroll along cobblestone streets lined with cozy cafes and artisan boutiques, and visit the Pilgrim Fathers' Church, where the Mayflower set sail for America in 1620. Go along with this maritime theme and book a ferry tour on the riverfront and see Rotterdam from a different perspective!
### See Rotterdam’s Wild Side at the Zoo
Go on a wild adventure at Rotterdam Zoo! It is home to over 2,000 animals and has species from far-off places all around the globe. With immersive habitats like the Oceanium, you can observe marine life in a vast underwater tunnel. Or maybe you want to visit the Amazonica, a tropical paradise teeming with exotic plants and animals. Check the schedule ahead of time so you don't miss the daily animal feedings and educational presentations.
### Get a Bird’s Eye View of Rotterdam at Euromast
Ascend to new heights at the Euromast, Rotterdam's iconic observation tower offering panoramic views of the city and into the countryside. Take the high-speed elevator to the top observation deck, where you can enjoy Rotterdam's skyline, the bustling port, and the scenic countryside. If you aren’t afraid of heights and are feeling particularly brave, then make a reservation to rappel down the side of the Euromast.
### Spend Your Evenings on Witte de Withstraat
Witte de Withstraat, the “art axis of Rotterdam,” is in the Rotterdam Centrum district. It is the center of Rotterdam's vibrant nightlife scene, with trendy bars, cafes, and eclectic art galleries. Join locals and visitors alike as you hop from one venue to the next, sampling craft beers, cocktails, and delicious street food. Take this energetic atmosphere inside and visit one of the many nightclubs while you are there.
### Sail the Seven Seas in Rotterdam
Step aboard the SS Rotterdam, once the flagship of the Holland-America Cruise Ship Line. Explore the cruise ship's luxurious interiors, including elegant lounges, ballrooms, and cabins through interactive exhibits and guided tours. You can even have dinner in one of the restaurants or book a room and spend the night aboard!
Take advantage of Rotterdam’s river access! Although the SS Rotterdam has been stationary for years and no longer sails, if you would like to take a ferry to the UK or other Dutch cities, it is possible on other ships and water taxis.
When is the best time to visit Rotterdam
The best times to visit Rotterdam are typically during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November), when the weather is mild and the city is less crowded than the peak summer season. Spring offers blooming flowers and pleasant temperatures ideal for exploring outdoor attractions, while autumn showcases vibrant foliage and cultural events.
If you plan to visit during the summer, do not fret too much about the summer heat. The Netherlands has calmer and cooler summers than many other parts of Europe. Whenever you visit, bring an umbrella. The Netherlands experiences about 130 rainy days a year, and October is the wettest month.
Rotterdam hosts several annual festivals throughout the year, including the International Film Festival Rotterdam (January and February), Rotterdam Unlimited (July and August), North Sea Jazz Festival (July), and World Port Days (September), offering visitors unique cultural experiences and vibrant celebrations. No matter which time of year you visit Rotterdam, there is always something to do!

“Utilicé este servicio para un traslado desde Split, en Croacia, hasta Perast, Montenegro. Mi experiencia fue excepcional. Mi conductor, Bojan, fue servicial, informativo y se aseguró de que mi viaje fuera cómodo y agradable. Recomiendo encarecidamente este servicio.”
“Quedamos extremadamente satisfechos con la calidad del servicio que recibimos de Day Trip. Tuvimos dos viajes con Day Trip el 31 de agosto de Atenas a Lefkada y el 7 de septiembre de Lefkada de regreso a Atenas. Ambos viajes incluyeron paradas en lugares pintorescos de Grecia. Ambos conductores fueron excelentes y complacientes. Sin embargo, nos gustaría especialmente reconocer a Panos Peppas, quien fue nuestro conductor de Lefkada a Atenas. Panos fue increíblemente amable y agradable, y brindó un servicio al cliente excepcional, que incluyó encargarse de todo nuestro equipaje, proporcionarnos aguas frías durante todo el viaje, darnos barritas de proteína, entregarnos material impreso sobre el Canal de Corinto (una de las paradas escénicas), buscar y facilitarnos información sobre la terminal y la puerta de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa, y proporcionarnos una receta de tzatziki.”

“Nos encanta absolutamente esta empresa y la hemos usado muchas veces a lo largo de los años para ir de un lugar a otro sin la molestia de alquilar un coche nosotros mismos. Conductores excelentes cada vez. Eficientes y profesionales. Vale cada centavo y sinceramente recomendamos Day Trip a todos. Su calificación de 5 estrellas está totalmente merecida.”
“Viajamos de Núremberg a Múnich en un hermoso Audi. El conductor nos recogió en nuestro hotel a la hora exacta solicitada. Nos llevó a Múnich con suficiente tiempo para nuestro próximo tour. El conductor se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos.”
“Gonzalo de Daytrip fue nuestro conductor y fue absolutamente increíble. Hizo todo lo posible por localizarnos, ya que no teníamos buena señal en nuestros teléfonos. Esperó pacientemente nuestra llegada al vestíbulo para llevarnos desde el Tulum Dreams Resort a nuestro otro hotel en Cancún, a una hora y media de distancia, cerca del aeropuerto, antes de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa. Fue educado, respetuoso y amable. Se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos durante todo el trayecto. Rápido y directo. Recomiendo esta empresa, ya que encontrar un transporte solo de ida de Tulum a Cancún no es fácil ni barato, y esta empresa ofrece un excelente servicio a un gran precio. Definitivamente los volveré a usar cuando esté en la zona de Cancún/Tulum. Gracias, Daytrip y Gonzalo.”
“Marianna nos recogió para llevarnos de Heraclión a Chania. El clima era terrible y, debido a esto, Marianna llegó unos minutos tarde. Me contactó para avisarme. Marianna vive en Chania y hizo que nuestro viaje fuera muy interesante al contarnos sobre cosas locales para hacer y ver en Chania. Marianna es una conductora segura y todos nos sentimos cómodos con la velocidad a la que conducía y lo bien que manejó bajo la fuerte lluvia. Es una persona encantadora y habla inglés con fluidez. Recomendamos mucho a Daytrip, y si estás en Heraclión o Chania, asegúrate de pedir a Marianna.”
“Utilicé el servicio para ir de Luxor a Hurghada, Egipto. Ahmed H fue nuestro conductor y fue perfecto. El coche era nuevo, estaba limpio, tenía agua y aperitivos para nosotros, y acomodó nuestras paradas. Gran servicio de su parte y lo recomendaría.”
“Usamos Daytrip para dos trayectos en México, y ambos fueron geniales. Muy cómodos, y llegamos a cada destino a una excelente hora. Ambos conductores fueron increíbles, y nos sentimos muy seguros. Uno de nuestros conductores, Miguel, también puso la mejor música. Definitivamente usaremos Daytrip en nuestro próximo viaje a México.”

“No sabíamos qué esperar de este viaje y reservamos desde Australia. Inicialmente buscábamos una forma fácil de viajar de Granada a Málaga. Decidimos no perder la oportunidad de ver algo más en nuestro camino. Miguel ciertamente superó nuestras expectativas. Su inglés era excelente (lamentablemente hablamos muy poco español), y fue muy amable y servicial. Disfrutamos mucho escuchando sobre las regiones por las que pasamos y también discutiendo algunas de las costumbres locales. Miguel nos llevó a Antequera como estaba planeado y se aseguró de que pudiéramos conseguir fácilmente nuestras entradas para las atracciones sin ninguna prisa. Nos recogieron y dejaron puntualmente y realmente disfrutamos nuestro viaje. Esperamos volver a España y poder usar este servicio nuevamente en algún momento.”
“Necesitábamos transporte de Ámsterdam a Róterdam cuando nuestro puerto de salida de crucero cambió. Tomar el tren no era algo que quisiéramos hacer con equipaje y problemas de movilidad. Nuestra conductora nos recogió en nuestro hotel en Ámsterdam a tiempo. Disfrutamos de un agradable viaje a Róterdam en su coche muy LIMPIO. También nos proporcionó información sobre Róterdam, conversación interesante durante el camino y nos dejó en nuestro hotel en Róterdam. Muy contentos con nuestra elección de usar DayTrip y lo haríamos nuevamente.”
