    Gister hebben we via Event op het Water een boot gehuurd voor ons groepsuitje. De boot zelf was prachtig, ontzettend schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien. Onze schipper was niet alleen een professionele bestuurder, maar ook een geweldige gastheer die precies de juiste sfeer wist neer te zetten en ons de mooiste plekjes vanaf het water heeft laten zien. Dankzij de uitstekende service, de lekkere hapjes en de ontspannen sfeer hebben we een fantastische dag gehad. Absoluut een aanrader voor wie op zoek is naar een zorgeloos en gezellig evenement op het water! We boeken de volgende keer zeker weer.
