Gesche Ermert

Very nice tour through the canals. Good value for money. Our guides were Anna and Joshua, Anna told us interesting facts about different buildings. Also something that isn't necessarily in every Wikipedia article. The size of the boat was also very comfortable. There are also drinks. Highly recommended :)

Enjoy sailing on a luxurious, spacious, clean and quiet electric sloop. Great that there were cushions and umbrellas on board. And skipper Jan was super friendly and helpful. Thank you!
