Waterbus is the biggest public aquatic transportation company in the Netherlands. We operate in the region of the province of South Holland and carry around 1.9 million passengers every year! Step on board in modern Rotterdam, the largest harbour in Europe, or in historic Dordrecht where the history of our democracy began. Do you want to see the impressive windmills of UNESCO World Heritage Site Kinderdijk? With Waterbus, you can get there quickly and in comfort.
Departures to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Kinderdijk in the summer holidays.
The number of travellers to Kinderdijk has risen since waterbus started its direct connection. As a result of the increasing interest in visits to Kinderdijk from Rotterdam, Waterbus has launched extra departures to Kinderdijk.
Waterbus line 21 currently travels from Rotterdam Erasmusbrug directly to Molenkade, Kinderdijk. Waterbus line 20 travels daily from Rotterdam Erasmusbrug and Dordrecht Merwekade to Ridderkerk De Schans. From there one can transfer onto the Driehoeksveer and travel to Kinderdijk.
