Eine gemütliche, lustige und lehrreiche Fahrt

Eine tolle, ruhige und zugleich dank der sehr freundlichen Schiffer lustige Art, die Region aus einer anderen Perspektive kennenzulernen und etwas über die Geschichte und Boots- und Schifffahrt zu erfahren. Man kann mit anpacken, wenn man möchte, oder auch einfach sitzen und auf sich wirken lassen. Wir waren zu zweit unterwegs, eine Person mit und eine ohne Autismus, und haben die Tour beide sehr genossen. Und dann die Musik am Ende… :-) Danke! Empfehlen wir gerne weiter!

De schipper is toppie en van alle markten thuis

Zeer gezellige en mooie zeil ervaring op twee meren, mooie eerste indruk. Schipper is key in zijn vak en weet de het gezelschap te entertainen met verhalen en accordeon/zang, kortom super ervaring en iedereen aan te raden om een retourtje te boeken van Heeg/Balk
