Good morning
See the mills at Kinderdijk
Start off your day at the windmills of Kinderdijk. These 19 authentic mills from the 18th century and are an excellent early example of the Dutch expertise in water management. The mills provide a spectacular sight and form a quaint and traditional Dutch landscape that is well worth visiting during your stay in the Netherlands.
Good afternoon
Take a Spido Cruise
Rotterdam is only a little way northwest of Kinderdijk and is a logical next stop. One of the nicest outdoor activities you can undertake in Rotterdam is a board one of Spido’s boats for a cruise through Rotterdam’s impressive port, which is actually the largest in Europe. Marvel at the sheer scale of this wonder of industry and engineering while enjoying a cool breeze through your hair.
Good evening
Climb the Euromast
A short tram or metro ride away from the Spido docks you’ll find the Euromast. This imposing tower is over 180 metres tall and is one of the eyecatchers of Rotterdam’s skyline. If you climb it you will have a stunning view over the entire city and its surroundings. If the weather is clear you can even see other cities, such as Delft and The Hague. The Euromast is opened during the evening, making it a logical place to end your day trip!
How it works
Checking in and out with your debit card works the same way as with your
OV-chipkaart. Below we explain it step by step.
Step by step
- Hold your debit card, credit card or mobile against the card reader or gate and you are checked in.
- Are you getting off? It's the same way. And with the same card you checked in with.
- Your payment is automatic. The next day you see the amount in your payment summary with the description NLOV. And the price? That is the same as traveling with your OV-chipkaart.
- Want to see the travel costs of a particular day? Then download the app or enter the 14 numbers and letters behind NLOV and the amount debited on this page.
