The great thing is: you’re not limited to just one type of activity.

Start at De Borrelkade (right next to the boarding location)

De Borrelkade is our own spacious drinks café with a terrace, located right next to the boarding point of our boats. This makes it very easy to create a program that starts in one place and flows naturally, for example with a welcome reception, drinks, an activity, and a closing moment.
