We can also welcome you aboard a well-known, Amsterdam based, shipping company boat equipped with an indoor area if you want to stay cozy, and rooftop that opens for when the sun is shining.
FLOATING COCKTAIL
After the ceremony we will provide you with an exceptional opportunity to explore the iconic canals of Amsterdam. Join us aboard a rugged chic and industrial canal boat, equipped with refreshing beverages and tasty canapé’s. While navigating the canals of Amsterdam, you will be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery from your front row seat. Take in the breathtaking architecture, unique infrastructure, and enjoy people watching bicyclists – a grocery bag on each of their handle bars, a kid on the front of their bike, and a crate of locally brewed beer on the back.
