gouda canal cruise

Be surprised during a unique and unforgettable cruise through the historic Gouda canals and discover the fascinating story behind our world-famous city!

 

With our special ships we take you to places that stay hidden from other tours. During an approximately 1-hour trip we sail through the Gouda canals in 2 directions along the north-south route that was used for centuries by ships to pass through the world's longest lock from Gouda's city center to the Dutch IJssel river.

 

Our skippers entertain you with fun facts about the city, and of course you can ask them your own questions!

Gouda Canal Cruise can also be booked as a charter for a group or private tour, company outing, or team building activity.
