Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if it rains?

Nothing changes on a saloon boat. They are covered and heated, so you stay warm and dry whatever the sky does. Sloops may have a cover on them for rainy days; during unexpected showers, the skipper will take cover under a bridge. In severe weather conditions, the trip may be cancelled – in which case we refund your tickets.

How many people can take part in a team-building event in Amsterdam?
