Bello!!
We visited this beautiful center with kitchens from all over the world that stands in front of the famous cube houses of Rotterdam, which with 3 euros per person, 1.50 for children you can visit inside in a few minutes since it is 100 mt2 distributed over 3 floors (beware of stairs if you have motor problems). Overall very pleasant visit 😍

Stunningly beautiful building
The building is stunning inside and out (and photographs very well!). The food court serves lunch and dinner. The food choices are international, but not necessarily gourmet. We were there in the morning, only ate a pastry and had coffee. but we found to bring home some delicious French sausages and some high-quality Dutch cheeses.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rotterdam.
How much does Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis cost?
+
Prices start at $296 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rotterdam usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis take?
+
Plan for about 1.3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rotterdam is not rushed.
Is Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rotterdam, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rotterdam can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rotterdam and add a light layer if any part of the 1.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rotterdam within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rotterdam?
+
On Outty we rank every Rotterdam experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rotterdam Walk: Highlights, Architecture, Gems & WWII | 2 or 3hrs, Rotterdam Bike Tour - all the Highlights, Rotterdam Walking Food Tour with Delicious Tastings. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rotterdam?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rotterdam?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis?
+
Included: Rooftop visit Het Witte Huis; Snacks; Voucher for a discount at one of the stands in Markthal; and Postcard of Rotterdam architectural photographer Ossip van Duivenbode. Not included: Entrance fee Cube House. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis?
+
You will meet the guide OUTSIDE the entrance of Grotemarkt 106 -180, Rotterdam. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private tour: Markthal, Cube houses and Rooftop Het Witte Huis offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English and Dutch. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
