Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

01 - How long is a standard tour?

A trip through Lier takes about 45 minutes. Just long enough to immerse yourself in the most beautiful stories and discover the most picturesque spots of our city!

02 - When can I take a boat trip?

We’re ready for you from April 1st through October 31st! Find us every Saturday, Sunday, and public holiday between 14:00 and 17:30 at the quay. Even better: in July and August, we operate daily from 14:00 – perfect for your summer holiday!

03 - Do I need to book in advance?

It’s recommended! During our regular operating hours (Saturday, Sunday, and holidays between 14:00 and 17:30), you can buy tickets on the spot if we have spaces available. We operate multiple times per hour, so even if one boat is full, you can usually join the next one – enjoy a drink at a terrace and before you know it, you’ll be on board! If you want to sail outside these hours or want to ensure your spot, booking is necessary. You can easily do this through our website or with a phone call. This is especially recommended on weekends and during holidays!

Maar wil je buiten deze uren varen of zeker zijn van een plaatsje? Dan is reserveren noodzakelijk. Dat kan makkelijk via onze website of met een belletje. Vooral in het weekend en tijdens vakanties is dat een goed idee!

04 - How much does a boat trip cost?

You can join us for just €5! Coming with children? Even better: kids under 12 sail for only €2. Prefer a private boat? For €50, you get an entire boat to yourself (2 to 10 people), and additional friends or family can join for €5 per person.
Want to make it special? Add our aperitif option (€4 extra p.p.) for extra enjoyment! Dreaming of a romantic wedding cruise? For €70, we’ll arrange a special wedding boat for 10 people (additional guests can join for €5 p.p.).
Coming with a group of 10 or more? We’ll happily arrange a group package – with or without aperitifs on board!

05 - Can I board with a wheelchair?

We do our best to provide everyone with an enjoyable trip! Our historic boats do have some accessibility limitations. Please let us know if you have mobility issues, and we’ll work together to find the most comfortable solution for you.
