What is the "Overpriced Harbor Tour" scam in Rotterdam?

Question

Accepted Answer

Boat tour operators near the Erasmus Bridge and Leuvehaven harbor area quote varying prices for Maas River tours, with tourist-facing prices significantly above what is available through RET (Rotterdam public transport) water taxis or official Spido harbor tours. Some informal operators collect payment before departure and deliver a significantly shorter tour than advertised. Book harbor tours through Spido (the official Rotterdam harbor tour operator) at Willemsplein or use the RET water taxi for point-to-point transport at published fares. Verify tour duration before paying.
