Good to know

  • Closed Boat only from November 1st till April 1st!
  • Due a lot of traffic at the dock, I can't wait more than 5 minutes. Please make sure you are at the dock 10 minutes before departure.
  • The tour is a historical canal cruise, it is not a booze cruise. So if you are looking for a bachelor party boat or any other booze cruise, this is not the cruise for you.
  • Captain Jack is collaboration between friends. Captain Jack is not himself on the boat.
  • Due Health regulations (regarding food) animals are not allowed (service animals excluded).
  • A fairly big step needs to be taken to get in the boat. Of course we will assist you.
  • Beware all my boats are open. So when it rains, you can get wet. But rebooking with rain is always possible
  • I always try to give the best tour possible (5*). But in rare occasion things don't go as you and me would like. Please let me know asap. Either direct or send me an email of text. I will contact you.

A wonderful tour, highly recommend

Tim was a great, funny guide - knowledgeable about the history and also able to add in much as a native. His joking with the passengers helped make it a more fun and interesting tour, as it led to more questions and information. Highly recommend.
