Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose DareMapp’s Rotterdam audioguide?
DareMapp’s Rotterdam audioguide is an interactive GPS-based route created by historians and local experts. It includes audio content, mini challenges, and gamified experiences at each stop, is available in 6 languages, and requires no schedules or groups. Trusted by over 100,000 travellers and recognised by Spain’s Ministry of Tourism and major media outlets, it offers a flexible and engaging way to discover Rotterdam at your own pace.
How do the interactive GPS routes in the Rotterdam audioguide work?
Our Rotterdam audioguide uses your smartphone’s geolocation technology to show your exact position on the Rotterdam map. As you reach each marked point of interest, you can play the audio content and manually unlock interactive mini challenges. You set the pace: stop for a break, grab a coffee, and continue your tour whenever you like.
Who is the Rotterdam audioguide designed for?
Our experience is designed for all types of travellers. It’s ideal for families looking for an engaging way to introduce history to children and teenagers through mini challenges and clue-based activities, for couples who want to explore at their own pace without relying on groups, and for solo travellers seeking a smart, expert companion. As a self-guided tour, it adapts perfectly to any pace and age.
If you’re travelling in a group, can you share the Rotterdam audioguide?
To fully enjoy the interactive experience — including GPS maps, audio content, and mini challenges — each traveller needs to purchase their own guide on their smartphone. Purchases are individual and linked to a single user account.
While it’s technically possible to share headphones, we recommend that each person has their own audioguide to participate individually in the challenges, receive their own free eSIM code, and navigate the route independently from their own device.
What makes DareMapp different from traditional audioguides?
Unlike traditional audioguides, DareMapp offers engaging explanations, fascinating historical facts, local legends, and fun mini challenges throughout each route. Beyond learning about the main landmarks in Rotterdam, you’ll also discover hidden gems and local traditions in a more interactive and enjoyable way.
Who creates DareMapp’s routes and content?
Our itineraries are not generated by Artificial Intelligence or generic algorithms. Each route is carefully designed by official guides, historians, and local experts who live in the city. This allows us to offer not only accurate historical information, but also the kind of insights, stories, and hidden spots that only a local would know.
Do I need internet or mobile data on my device?
Yes. We are currently working on an offline mode, but for now an internet connection is required. That’s why, with your Rotterdam audioguide, we include a free 2GB eSIM* so you can stay connected and avoid roaming charges.
How do I redeem my free data eSIM?
When you purchase your tour on the website, you’ll receive a unique code by email* along with detailed instructions to activate your 2GB of data completely free.
Who can help me if I have issues with the eSIM?
If you experience any difficulties installing the eSIM profile, have connectivity issues, or have questions about your 2GB data usage, you should contact Turtrip’s technical support team directly, our official connectivity provider. They are telecommunications experts and will be able to resolve any technical issues in real time through their support portal.

What is the best way to visit Rotterdam: a group tour or an audioguide?
The best way to visit Rotterdam depends on your travel style. DareMapp’s Rotterdam audioguide is the best option if you prefer complete flexibility and exploring at your own pace without relying on others. Group tours are ideal if you’re looking for in-person interaction, but they require following a fixed schedule and sharing the experience with other travellers.

Is DareMapp’s audioguide a good option for visiting Rotterdam with children?
Yes, absolutely. DareMapp’s Rotterdam audioguide includes mini challenges and clue-based activities throughout the route, designed to keep younger travellers engaged while learning in a fun way. Since there are no fixed schedules or groups to follow, your family sets the pace. It is an excellent alternative to traditional guided tours when travelling with children.
Does the app use a lot of battery during the route in Rotterdam?
The app is optimised to minimise battery usage. However, since it uses GPS and audio continuously, we recommend starting your visit with a fully charged device. If you plan to complete multiple routes in the same day, we also suggest bringing a portable charger for added peace of mind.
Is there a refund guarantee if I have issues with the Rotterdam audioguide?
Yes, absolutely. At DareMapp, our priority is that you enjoy your experience when visiting Rotterdam.
