A nice trip in a big sloop to discover the backside of Haarlem. Thanks to the knowledgeable commentary on board, we got many tips for our walk through the city. Cool captain!

Super fun boat trip

1 April 2025    Families

We couldn't find the tour boat. They picked us up at the mill. This is of course 1st class service. Thanks again for that. The boat trip was super fun and we were actually able to see a lot of things.
