Important Information

I prefer to do the kayak tours in the mornings as it is less busy on the canals. If your schedule doesn’t allow you to go in the morning, contact us for other options.

Children below the age of 10 years old are not allowed on the tours. If you feel an exception could be made, please contact us. The kayaks can accommodate a wide range of people. However, if you are much taller or heavier than average, please contact us to discuss.

You do not need previous experience to go kayaking, but it helps if you are a bit flexible and somewhat fit. We provide all the equipment: kayaks, paddles, swim vests, water and a snack. The guide will take you along the most beautiful canals providing historical information while taking care of your safety. There is no fixed speed or distance we need to cover, it should feel relaxed and enjoyable for everyone participating. We have small groups of maximum 5 people.

In general children below the age of ten are not allowed on the tour. If you feel an exception could be made, please contact us.
