We toured in July 2019. The tour spent a little bit too much time in an office building with a view and unfortunately we were the only English speaking guests thus 80% of the tour was in Dutch. There was an assistant with our tour guide that could have repeated what the guide was saying but for some reason was reticent, didn't want to upset our guide. I pressed her for descriptions anyway and that improved our experience some. Once we took the Watertaxi to the Cube Houses (which was super fun albeit brief) our guide was able to find an English speaking tour guide with the same company for us and a blended us with another group. This was extraordinarily helpful and improved our experience immediately. Our new tour guide who spoke English perfectly made the Markthal tour fun with little details about the building and the shops within. The large outdoor market that resembled a flea market was huge and enjoyable to walk through.

I hope the tour company reads this review so t

The cube Houses are a distinctive feature of central Rotterdam , and an architectural experiment. One of them is open for visitors, and well worth a visit. Undoubtedly intriguing, the cubes are positioned at an angle on top of ‘stalks’ containing the access stairs. Interesting and brave, but terribly impractical .....

Beautiful cubical houses. Its a must visit place in Rotterdam, Netherlands. Nearby the cube houses there is a big complex of restaurants.
