Monday through Saturday – except Thursday
Discover the magic of Illumination Week from the Tour Boat, drifting along beautifully illuminated windmills. Enjoy historical panoramas and delightful snacks and drinks on board as the World Heritage site transforms into a sea of light.
Experience the illuminated windmills from the water with a well-filled glass in your hand and friendly people around you. On board the boat, we offer a wide selection of drinks, from refreshing beers and flavorful wines to an assortment of soft drinks. In addition, delicious snacks are available for you to enjoy, ensuring not only a spectacular view but also a culinary delight.
As the boat gently glides through the water, the skipper plays music that completes the onboard atmosphere. You can relax and soak in the enchanting ambiance of the illuminated windmills passing by. The combination of good company, atmospheric music, and stunning views makes this experience an unforgettable journey full of warmth and coziness.
This adventure is offered from Monday through Saturday, except Thursday, during Illumination Week. We sail for one hour on the ‘Lage Boezem’ of the Nederwaard. There are only 37 spots available per departure, so reserve your spot on board quickly!
