Experience Gent along the water, a unique opportunity to visit the city.

Departing from the Graslei, you'll get on board of an informative cruise of 40 minutes through the historical city center of Gent. You'll travel back to the Middle Ages and learn about the prestigious past of the city. You'll pass by the beautiful house fronts of the Graslei, the big old meat-market, the rugged and steep walls of the Castle of Counts.

Erg volle boot.

This city should be observed from the water :) many thanks to our 3-lingual guide!

We had a very nice time in Ghent, thanks also to the boat trip!

Heel interessant om meer over Gent te weten te komen en het was zeer ontspannend!

Leuke gids, heerlijk ontspannen. Zeker een aanrader om een glimps van het histrorisch centrum van Gent te zien
