Rotterdam Cruise Port is a one-stop office for anything you require in Rotterdam. We can assist with maritime and tourist requests and any other service item one might wish for. For every call, Rotterdam Cruise Port invites all parties concerned (agent, travel agent, harbour master of the Port of Rotterdam, Customs, River Police, Police and Fire Brigade) for a meeting to discuss all wishes and requests. All items discussed will be put in a script to ensure that everything goes according to the wishes of your company and your passengers.

In addition to the general calls and turn-around visits of cruise ships we can assist with local matters such as organising special events, including press assistance.
