Our customer experience
Cute little boat with delicious mulled wine - the tour was good with a great guide (John the beared.) Only wish it was heated boat.

Went with mokumboot for an evening canal cruise to see the light exhibition. We all had a lovely time - the exhibition itself was fabulous but our host on the boat - 'John the Beard' - was phenomenal - he was very welcoming and we greatly enjoyed his stories and humour. Highly recommend.
in the last week
Mokumboot team at Nassaukade 351 is the best! We had an amazing experience renting a boat for the light festival. We’ve got a nice map with special route and information about the art objects. We also received a beautiful festive boat with Christmas decorations, but more importantly - nice plaids to keep us warm. The whole atmosphere was great and our family and friends loved the ride and the light show. Highly recommend!
