Explore the charm of Haarlem the way locals love it most: from the water.

Step aboard a stylish, comfortable open electric sloop and cruise through Haarlem’s historic canals and along the Spaarne River. With a real live guide on board (not an audio recording), you’ll hear the stories behind the city’s oldest buildings, beautiful bridges, and hidden waterways—plus plenty of fun facts you won’t find in a guidebook.

This cruise is small-scale and personal. Ask questions, get local tips (cafés, museums, photo spots), and enjoy Haarlem at a relaxed pace. The boat is usually open for the best views, and if the weather changes, a rain cover can be used so you can stay comfortable.

Perfect for couples, families, and anyone who wants a real Haarlem experience—quiet, scenic, and sustainable.

Drinks and snacks are available for purchase on board.
