CALL USOptions for fun are many here, which is why travelling to and from the city via private jet is not only a luxurious way but convenient as well.
Travellers looking for entertainment in Rotterdam will find it in the form of activities meant to show off the port views found around the city and the mix of cultural influences found here.

This observation station reaches more than 600 feet into the sky and offers a restaurant, hotel suite and deck that offers unparalleled water and land views.
The Markthal is part office space and part market, and it is the last part that will attract travellers. The architectural design of the space is as much an attraction as what is found within it. The marketplace has a dazzling array of shops, restaurants, bars and eclectic offerings that provide goods and wares not found in other areas of the city.
Rotterdam is constantly abuzz with annual events that draw in crowds from around the world. The International Film Festival Rotterdam is a popular cultural event, with screenings and judging for independent and mainstream films making the circuit each year.
