Tour guide

Wibo van Gennip is captivated by the theme of finding tranquility in everyday life. Wibo has a great passion for architecture, art and the experience of public space. He is also a less-stress coach. He loves Rotterdam and the bustle, but also sees the need for peace in that bustle! He combined the above in the establishment of the ‘RUST in de Reuring’ foundation. In a stressed society, REST is of vital importance. His challenge is to make it possible to experience ‘REST in the middle of the Reuring’. This route is an example of that.
