A private boat tour in Rotterdam for your own group
A boat just for you, with a skipper at the helm. Celebrate a special occasion, bring your team together or enjoy Rotterdam from the water with friends and family. We tailor the boat, duration, route and catering to your enquiry.

Your time on the water
On a private tour, the boat is reserved for your group. Whether you want to catch up, discover Rotterdam or celebrate with food and drinks, tell us what matters to you and we will suggest a suitable programme.
There is no single fixed route for every private cruise. We consider the available boat, your preferred duration and your wishes. Our enclosed boat can also be requested, subject to availability. The final route remains dependent on boating conditions.
Food & drinks on board
From drinks to a private dinner
Drinks, sharing food and dinner packages can be added on request. Tell us how many guests will join and what you would like to serve. Your proposal sets out the menu or selection, quantities and price, so the inclusions are clear before you confirm.

The boat for your group only
A private cruise with drinks or dinner
Would you like to eat or have drinks on board with your own group? Private hire makes that possible: we discuss the catering, guest numbers, drinks and duration. This is tailored — the scheduled evening boat tour does not serve a meal.
Pontoon + water
Combine your cruise with the Experience Hub
Start with your own gathering or an urban farming workshop on the pontoon, then step aboard. Or make a private cruise the finale to a programme with lunch. Hub activities are available on request; we check the space and boat availability together.
