Key points<\/h2>\n\n- You get a clear picture of how much time you can set aside for the tour and how the sailing time is divided.<\/li>\n
- Find out which container terminals and Port installations make the trip special.<\/li>\n
- You can see how Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 are discussed in the route.<\/li>\n
- Read which routes the boat follows and why the route is sometimes changed.<\/li>\n
- Compare the possibilities for a boat trip from Rotterdam and find out what suits your plans.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
Duration of the cruise<\/h2>\n
The duration depends on the chosen trip and place of departure. A cruise to the Tweede Maasvlakte from Maassluis takes about 4.5 hours. You sail more than 3 hours between the activities in the port. A shorter cruise along Maasvlakte 2 takes 75 minutes. The duration of a cruise on the Meuse can vary per trip. So you can choose between an extensive tour with a harbor view and a shorter cruise from the water.<\/p>\n
The sailing times also differ per program. The Tour from Maassluis departs at 11.00 and ends at 15.30. A day trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte can last from 10.30 to 17.30. Another Maasvlakt tour runs from 09.30 to 18.00. These are different programs, so when choosing, look primarily at the mentioned boarding place and times.<\/p>\n
The departure point can be Hoek van Holland, Maassluis, Rotterdam or Lage Zwaluwe, depending on the trip. On a day trip, the boat is ready in Rotterdam when participants arrive there at 10.00 am. The route and boarding time Belong Together: therefore use the departure point that is on your trip. For transportation by public transport or car, you plan the trip to that specific place; the information about one departure point does not automatically apply to the other.<\/p>\n
The Maasvlakt Tour is available from July to October, subject to availability. Other cruises may follow a different sailing schedule. So the duration in itself does not tell what day the boat leaves. Look at both the sailing time and the sailing day, so you know how much time you reserve for the entire trip. For example, a trip that leaves at 10: 30 and ends at 17: 30 will take up a large part of your day.<\/p>\n
A ticket must be booked for each participant, including young children. Children up to 3 years are allowed free of charge; children under 14 years are accompanied by an adult. The ship is wheelchair friendly and has a disabled toilet. Self - brought food and drinks are not allowed on board. During the trip, catering may be available for a fee; for a day trip, a buffet may also be part of the program.<\/p>\n
If you want to join, book tickets for all participants and choose a trip with a suitable departure point and sailing time. This way you know on which day you leave and how long you are on the road. A trip to the Maasvlakte takes longer than a short cruise on the Meuse. The route, embarkation point and time between the port installations determine the difference. So Plan plenty of time to fully enjoy the view over the waterway.<\/p>\n
View container terminals and Port installations<\/h2>\n
On the second Maasvlakte you can see the scale of the container transshipment up close. The RWG, Euromax and APM terminals handle containers from large sea vessels. During the cruise, ships sometimes pass the APM terminals at the Prinses Amaliahaven. Another route leads through the Amazon Harbor. Which installations you see from the water depends on the sailing route.<\/p>\n
The ships make the scale of the port work tangible. The container ships mentioned at the second Maasvlakte are 300 to 400 meters long. Some ships have more than 20,000 containers on board. From the water you can see how such a ship is located next to a terminal and how the transshipment takes place. The combination of ship, Quay and cranes shows how different parts of the port connect with each other.<\/p>\n
The second Maasvlakte covers 2000 hectares and has increased the Port of Rotterdam by 20%. You can see this in the extensive quays and the space around the terminals. The port installations are not just separate attractions: together they form a working area where sea vessels arrive and containers are transshipped. This way you get an impression of the size and design of this part of the port.<\/p>\n
Along the way, pay attention to the differences between the terminals. Names such as RWG, Euromax and APM indicate which terminal area you are passing through. At the Prinses Amaliahaven you will see terminals along the quay; in the Amazonehaven you will experience another part of the sailing area. As a result, the route can show various ships, quays and transshipment facilities.<\/p>\n
You will also find recognizable installations outside the container terminals. The Maeslantkering is a striking part of the route between Maassluis and the harbour mouth. The contrast between this barrier and the modern terminals makes the cruise varied. In case of strong winds or other unsafe conditions, the route towards the Botlek can be adjusted. The weather then also determines which port images you see on the way.<\/p>\n
If you want to take a good look at the terminals, keep an eye on both the quays and the ships while sailing. A ship of 300 to 400 meters looks impressive from the water, but the scale becomes even clearer when you see it lying next to the terminal. This way you can discover how the Port of Rotterdam works, from the arrival of large ships to the transshipment on the second Maasvlakte. For a private cruise with your group, you can request a quote for a private cruise.<\/p>\n
When viewing the port installations, take into account the sailing route. During the cruise, the ship sails past the APM terminals at the Prinses Amaliahaven or through the Amazonehaven. Both routes offer a different perspective on the port area.<\/p>\n
Route along Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2<\/h2>\n
An extensive Maasvlakteroute connects various waterways and port areas. From Lage Zwaluwe the boat sails via the Dordtsche Kil, the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. The return route runs via the Nieuwe Waterweg, the center of Rotterdam, Noord and Dordrecht. This way you can see not only terminals, but also how the sailing route connects the port with the city.<\/p>\n
The Oude Maas forms an important part of the route. Pernis is a recognizable point in the port area, between the urban environment and the activity of the Port of Rotterdam. From the water, the view gradually changes: banks and buildings give way to Port basins, quays and terminals. The boat then sails via the Hartelkanaal towards the Tweede Maasvlakte. The route thus leads along various landscapes.<\/p>\n
At Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 you can see how the port area stretches along the coast. The second Maasvlakte is the goal of the outward journey, while the route back via the Nieuwe Waterweg offers a different perspective. There you sail towards Rotterdam and pass the center, before continuing to North and Dordrecht. The exact sights vary by route; the order of waterways already provides guidance when following the map.<\/p>\n
The Nieuwe Waterweg connects the port area with Rotterdam and is a striking part of the return voyage. From the ship you look out over a wide fairway where different types of ships sail. The view shows why Rotterdam is one of the largest ports in Europe. The urban banks, harbour basins and Maasvlaktes provide variety along the way.<\/p>\n
The route is not fixed under all circumstances. In case of strong winds or other unsafe conditions, the route to the Tweede Maasvlakte can be adjusted towards the Botlek. As a result, the port areas you pass and the view on the way change. The wishes of passengers can also be taken into account when choosing a route. The conditions and the program therefore also determine which route the trip follows.<\/p>\n
If you want to follow the route well, pay attention to the order of the names: Dordtsche Kil, Oude Maas, Hartelkanaal, Tweede Maasvlakte and Nieuwe Waterweg. This series describes the main route of the trip from Lage Zwaluwe and the way back via Rotterdam. You can see both the extensive terminals at the Maasvlaktes and the connection to the city. With a change of route towards the Botlek, the view shifts, but the Tour remains focused on the port area.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
Sailing route to Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2<\/h2>\n
The route to Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 consists of recognizable stages. On the map, the Tour starts from Lage Zwaluwe and goes towards the Dordtsche Kil. Then the boat follows the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. This way you move from inland water to the extensive port area on the coast. The place names will help you follow the cruise step by step.<\/p>\n
On the Oude Maas, the landscape is gradually changing. You sail along banks and buildings, before the route runs via the Hartel Canal towards the Maasvlaktes. From the deck you can see the transition to the port area: the fairway widens, and terminals appear along the banks. With a clear view you can see the quays and harbor basins well in conjunction.<\/p>\n
Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 belong to the same large port area, but form different parts of the Route experience. The second Maasvlakte is the turning point of the outward journey in the described trajectory. There are container terminals on Port basins such as the Yangtze canal. Along that waterway you can see the activity of container transshipment. The location of the installations makes it clear how the shipping route leads deep into the port area.<\/p>\n
On the way back, the boat follows the Nieuwe Waterweg towards Rotterdam. Afterwards, the route leads through the center of Rotterdam and further along Noord and Dordrecht. This changes the view again: after the space around Maasvlakte 2, the city comes into focus. This alternation between Port installations and urban shores makes the return voyage different from the outward journey.<\/p>\n
Landmarks will help you determine your position along the way. The Maeslantkering is located along the route over the Nieuwe Waterweg; a Seal Island is also mentioned during the trip. In the Yangtze canal you sail past container handling companies. These names give guidance when you follow the sailing route on a map and show how nature, water barriers and port activities are close together.<\/p>\n
The sailing route can change if circumstances so require. In strong winds or other unsafe conditions, the draft towards the Botlek can be adjusted. The wishes of passengers can also influence the route. As a result, the order and areas you see may differ. The Big route gives direction; the conditions and the program determine which waterways the boat ultimately follows.<\/p>\n
Follow the route as a series of recognizable steps: Dordtsche Kil, Oude Maas, Hartelkanaal, Tweede Maasvlakte and then the Nieuwe Waterweg towards Rotterdam. With an adjusted course, the Botlek can come into view. This way you know which names belong to the round trip, without having to know every turn in advance. From the water you can see how Maasvlakte 1, Maasvlakte 2 and Rotterdam are together part of one large sailing area.<\/p>\n
Which boat trips sail from Rotterdam to the Maasvlakte?<\/h2>\n
A boat trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte departs from Rotterdam at 10.30 am. This day trip lasts from 10: 30 to 17: 30 and is available from July to October, subject to availability. So you are on the road for a large part of the day. That suits those who want to experience the port extensively from the water, with time for the port area and the return voyage.<\/p>\n
Pay close attention to the difference between departure and destination. A trip to the Maasvlakte can also start from Hoek van Holland or Maassluis. The round trip from Maassluis takes about 4.5 hours and sails from 11.00 to 15.30 hours. That is a different program than the day trip from Rotterdam. Therefore, when choosing, check both the boarding place and the start and end time.<\/p>\n
The Maasvlaktevaart is something different from a short cruise on the Meuse. It takes about 1 hour, while a trip along Maasvlakte 2 takes 75 minutes. Such shorter cruises give you an impression of part of the sailing area, but do not have the same duration as a day trip to the second Maasvlakte. First, decide how much time you want to spend, and then choose the tour that suits it.<\/p>\n
The content of the program will also help with your choice. During a day trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte, a lunch buffet is served around 12 o'clock. On another Maasvlakt Tour, coffee or tea with apple pie and whipped cream are included twice, plus a mixed snack. A drink of your choice is not included in this tour. The arrangements are therefore different; look at what belongs to the specific tour.<\/p>\n
A visit to FutureLand can take about an hour during the boat trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte. Portlantis is part of the package as soon as a visit there is possible. The day trip also offers time ashore. Choose this variant if you want to visit an information center next to the view from the ship.<\/p>\n
In your choice, three points are practical: the boarding place, the total duration and what the program includes. The Rotterdam tour departs at 10.30 am; the Maasvlakt Tour is available from July to October, subject to availability. A trip from Maassluis departs at a different time and has a shorter duration. This way you avoid confusing different cruises and choose a program that suits your day schedule.<\/p>\n

Another route description mentions Lage Zwaluwe as the starting point. From there, the Maasvlakteroute sails via the Dordtsche Kil, the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. The return route runs via the Nieuwe Waterweg, the center of Rotterdam, Noord and Dordrecht. Keep this route separate from the day trip that departs from Rotterdam: the place of departure and the route differ.<\/p>\n
Take this amount and this sailing duration separately when comparing options; the rental price concerns boat Gemini 2. So when planning, pay attention not only to the destination, but also to the route and sailing time. This way you can distinguish the route via Lage Zwaluwe from the day trip from Rotterdam and find out which option fits your planning.<\/p>\n
Event on the water<\/h2>\n
Event op het Water organizes private cruises for groups who want to go out on the water together. For an outing in Amsterdam you can choose from a private cruise, a BBQ boat package or a drink boat package. This way you can adjust the speed to the occasion and your company.<\/p>\n
During a private cruise you are on board with your own group, with an experienced skipper and catering staff. Think of drinking or eating together while you look at the landscape from the water. A route to the Maasvlakte is another sailing experience, with the Port of Rotterdam as the destination. Event op het Water organizes private cruises and group packages on the water.<\/p>\n

Frequently asked questions about the Maasvlaktetocht<\/h2>\nWhat is the sailing route from Rotterdam to the Maasvlakte?<\/h3>\n
The described Maasvlakteroute leads via the Dordtsche Kil, the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. The way back runs via the Nieuwe Waterweg and the center of Rotterdam, then towards Noord and Dordrecht. A day trip departing from Rotterdam starts at 10.30 am. For example, you can see the route as a combination of Port waterways and urban waterways, with the Maasvlakte as the destination on the outward journey.<\/p>\n
How long does a boat trip to the Maasvlakte take?<\/h3>\n
The duration varies by departure point and type of trip. From Maassluis, a boat trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte takes about 4.5 hours. A day trip from Rotterdam runs from 10.30 to 17.30. There is also a 75-minute cruise along Maasvlakte 2. So when planning, pay attention to the name of the trip: a short route along the Quay is slightly different from a day trip with a longer sailing route.<\/p>\n
On which days and in which season do the boats sail to the Maasvlakte?<\/h3>\n
The cruise to the Tweede Maasvlakte is available from July to October, subject to availability. The sailing days differ per trip and program. First choose the desired variant, such as the day trip from Rotterdam or the trip from Maassluis, and take into account the offered departure date. This way you plan with the season and the right boarding place in mind.<\/p>\n
What attractions are there along the way, such as the port and container terminals?<\/h3>\n
Along the way, you will see large sea vessels, container terminals and Port basins. The terminals RWG, Euromax and APM are located on the second Maasvlakte; the route can also pass the APM terminals at the Prinses Amaliahaven or through the Amazonehaven. In the Yangtze canal you pass container handling companies. Other landmarks include the Maeslantkering and a Seal Island. Which installations you see depends on the sailing route followed.<\/p>\n

The duration depends on the chosen trip and place of departure. A cruise to the Tweede Maasvlakte from Maassluis takes about 4.5 hours. You sail more than 3 hours between the activities in the port. A shorter cruise along Maasvlakte 2 takes 75 minutes. The duration of a cruise on the Meuse can vary per trip. So you can choose between an extensive tour with a harbor view and a shorter cruise from the water.<\/p>\n
The sailing times also differ per program. The Tour from Maassluis departs at 11.00 and ends at 15.30. A day trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte can last from 10.30 to 17.30. Another Maasvlakt tour runs from 09.30 to 18.00. These are different programs, so when choosing, look primarily at the mentioned boarding place and times.<\/p>\n
The departure point can be Hoek van Holland, Maassluis, Rotterdam or Lage Zwaluwe, depending on the trip. On a day trip, the boat is ready in Rotterdam when participants arrive there at 10.00 am. The route and boarding time Belong Together: therefore use the departure point that is on your trip. For transportation by public transport or car, you plan the trip to that specific place; the information about one departure point does not automatically apply to the other.<\/p>\n
The Maasvlakt Tour is available from July to October, subject to availability. Other cruises may follow a different sailing schedule. So the duration in itself does not tell what day the boat leaves. Look at both the sailing time and the sailing day, so you know how much time you reserve for the entire trip. For example, a trip that leaves at 10: 30 and ends at 17: 30 will take up a large part of your day.<\/p>\n
A ticket must be booked for each participant, including young children. Children up to 3 years are allowed free of charge; children under 14 years are accompanied by an adult. The ship is wheelchair friendly and has a disabled toilet. Self - brought food and drinks are not allowed on board. During the trip, catering may be available for a fee; for a day trip, a buffet may also be part of the program.<\/p>\n
If you want to join, book tickets for all participants and choose a trip with a suitable departure point and sailing time. This way you know on which day you leave and how long you are on the road. A trip to the Maasvlakte takes longer than a short cruise on the Meuse. The route, embarkation point and time between the port installations determine the difference. So Plan plenty of time to fully enjoy the view over the waterway.<\/p>\n
View container terminals and Port installations<\/h2>\n
On the second Maasvlakte you can see the scale of the container transshipment up close. The RWG, Euromax and APM terminals handle containers from large sea vessels. During the cruise, ships sometimes pass the APM terminals at the Prinses Amaliahaven. Another route leads through the Amazon Harbor. Which installations you see from the water depends on the sailing route.<\/p>\n
The ships make the scale of the port work tangible. The container ships mentioned at the second Maasvlakte are 300 to 400 meters long. Some ships have more than 20,000 containers on board. From the water you can see how such a ship is located next to a terminal and how the transshipment takes place. The combination of ship, Quay and cranes shows how different parts of the port connect with each other.<\/p>\n
The second Maasvlakte covers 2000 hectares and has increased the Port of Rotterdam by 20%. You can see this in the extensive quays and the space around the terminals. The port installations are not just separate attractions: together they form a working area where sea vessels arrive and containers are transshipped. This way you get an impression of the size and design of this part of the port.<\/p>\n
Along the way, pay attention to the differences between the terminals. Names such as RWG, Euromax and APM indicate which terminal area you are passing through. At the Prinses Amaliahaven you will see terminals along the quay; in the Amazonehaven you will experience another part of the sailing area. As a result, the route can show various ships, quays and transshipment facilities.<\/p>\n
You will also find recognizable installations outside the container terminals. The Maeslantkering is a striking part of the route between Maassluis and the harbour mouth. The contrast between this barrier and the modern terminals makes the cruise varied. In case of strong winds or other unsafe conditions, the route towards the Botlek can be adjusted. The weather then also determines which port images you see on the way.<\/p>\n
If you want to take a good look at the terminals, keep an eye on both the quays and the ships while sailing. A ship of 300 to 400 meters looks impressive from the water, but the scale becomes even clearer when you see it lying next to the terminal. This way you can discover how the Port of Rotterdam works, from the arrival of large ships to the transshipment on the second Maasvlakte. For a private cruise with your group, you can request a quote for a private cruise.<\/p>\n
When viewing the port installations, take into account the sailing route. During the cruise, the ship sails past the APM terminals at the Prinses Amaliahaven or through the Amazonehaven. Both routes offer a different perspective on the port area.<\/p>\n
Route along Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2<\/h2>\n
An extensive Maasvlakteroute connects various waterways and port areas. From Lage Zwaluwe the boat sails via the Dordtsche Kil, the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. The return route runs via the Nieuwe Waterweg, the center of Rotterdam, Noord and Dordrecht. This way you can see not only terminals, but also how the sailing route connects the port with the city.<\/p>\n
The Oude Maas forms an important part of the route. Pernis is a recognizable point in the port area, between the urban environment and the activity of the Port of Rotterdam. From the water, the view gradually changes: banks and buildings give way to Port basins, quays and terminals. The boat then sails via the Hartelkanaal towards the Tweede Maasvlakte. The route thus leads along various landscapes.<\/p>\n
At Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 you can see how the port area stretches along the coast. The second Maasvlakte is the goal of the outward journey, while the route back via the Nieuwe Waterweg offers a different perspective. There you sail towards Rotterdam and pass the center, before continuing to North and Dordrecht. The exact sights vary by route; the order of waterways already provides guidance when following the map.<\/p>\n
The Nieuwe Waterweg connects the port area with Rotterdam and is a striking part of the return voyage. From the ship you look out over a wide fairway where different types of ships sail. The view shows why Rotterdam is one of the largest ports in Europe. The urban banks, harbour basins and Maasvlaktes provide variety along the way.<\/p>\n
The route is not fixed under all circumstances. In case of strong winds or other unsafe conditions, the route to the Tweede Maasvlakte can be adjusted towards the Botlek. As a result, the port areas you pass and the view on the way change. The wishes of passengers can also be taken into account when choosing a route. The conditions and the program therefore also determine which route the trip follows.<\/p>\n
If you want to follow the route well, pay attention to the order of the names: Dordtsche Kil, Oude Maas, Hartelkanaal, Tweede Maasvlakte and Nieuwe Waterweg. This series describes the main route of the trip from Lage Zwaluwe and the way back via Rotterdam. You can see both the extensive terminals at the Maasvlaktes and the connection to the city. With a change of route towards the Botlek, the view shifts, but the Tour remains focused on the port area.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
Sailing route to Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2<\/h2>\n
The route to Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 consists of recognizable stages. On the map, the Tour starts from Lage Zwaluwe and goes towards the Dordtsche Kil. Then the boat follows the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. This way you move from inland water to the extensive port area on the coast. The place names will help you follow the cruise step by step.<\/p>\n
On the Oude Maas, the landscape is gradually changing. You sail along banks and buildings, before the route runs via the Hartel Canal towards the Maasvlaktes. From the deck you can see the transition to the port area: the fairway widens, and terminals appear along the banks. With a clear view you can see the quays and harbor basins well in conjunction.<\/p>\n
Maasvlakte 1 and Maasvlakte 2 belong to the same large port area, but form different parts of the Route experience. The second Maasvlakte is the turning point of the outward journey in the described trajectory. There are container terminals on Port basins such as the Yangtze canal. Along that waterway you can see the activity of container transshipment. The location of the installations makes it clear how the shipping route leads deep into the port area.<\/p>\n
On the way back, the boat follows the Nieuwe Waterweg towards Rotterdam. Afterwards, the route leads through the center of Rotterdam and further along Noord and Dordrecht. This changes the view again: after the space around Maasvlakte 2, the city comes into focus. This alternation between Port installations and urban shores makes the return voyage different from the outward journey.<\/p>\n
Landmarks will help you determine your position along the way. The Maeslantkering is located along the route over the Nieuwe Waterweg; a Seal Island is also mentioned during the trip. In the Yangtze canal you sail past container handling companies. These names give guidance when you follow the sailing route on a map and show how nature, water barriers and port activities are close together.<\/p>\n
The sailing route can change if circumstances so require. In strong winds or other unsafe conditions, the draft towards the Botlek can be adjusted. The wishes of passengers can also influence the route. As a result, the order and areas you see may differ. The Big route gives direction; the conditions and the program determine which waterways the boat ultimately follows.<\/p>\n
Follow the route as a series of recognizable steps: Dordtsche Kil, Oude Maas, Hartelkanaal, Tweede Maasvlakte and then the Nieuwe Waterweg towards Rotterdam. With an adjusted course, the Botlek can come into view. This way you know which names belong to the round trip, without having to know every turn in advance. From the water you can see how Maasvlakte 1, Maasvlakte 2 and Rotterdam are together part of one large sailing area.<\/p>\n
Which boat trips sail from Rotterdam to the Maasvlakte?<\/h2>\n
A boat trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte departs from Rotterdam at 10.30 am. This day trip lasts from 10: 30 to 17: 30 and is available from July to October, subject to availability. So you are on the road for a large part of the day. That suits those who want to experience the port extensively from the water, with time for the port area and the return voyage.<\/p>\n
Pay close attention to the difference between departure and destination. A trip to the Maasvlakte can also start from Hoek van Holland or Maassluis. The round trip from Maassluis takes about 4.5 hours and sails from 11.00 to 15.30 hours. That is a different program than the day trip from Rotterdam. Therefore, when choosing, check both the boarding place and the start and end time.<\/p>\n
The Maasvlaktevaart is something different from a short cruise on the Meuse. It takes about 1 hour, while a trip along Maasvlakte 2 takes 75 minutes. Such shorter cruises give you an impression of part of the sailing area, but do not have the same duration as a day trip to the second Maasvlakte. First, decide how much time you want to spend, and then choose the tour that suits it.<\/p>\n
The content of the program will also help with your choice. During a day trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte, a lunch buffet is served around 12 o'clock. On another Maasvlakt Tour, coffee or tea with apple pie and whipped cream are included twice, plus a mixed snack. A drink of your choice is not included in this tour. The arrangements are therefore different; look at what belongs to the specific tour.<\/p>\n
A visit to FutureLand can take about an hour during the boat trip to the Tweede Maasvlakte. Portlantis is part of the package as soon as a visit there is possible. The day trip also offers time ashore. Choose this variant if you want to visit an information center next to the view from the ship.<\/p>\n
In your choice, three points are practical: the boarding place, the total duration and what the program includes. The Rotterdam tour departs at 10.30 am; the Maasvlakt Tour is available from July to October, subject to availability. A trip from Maassluis departs at a different time and has a shorter duration. This way you avoid confusing different cruises and choose a program that suits your day schedule.<\/p>\n

Another route description mentions Lage Zwaluwe as the starting point. From there, the Maasvlakteroute sails via the Dordtsche Kil, the Oude Maas and the Hartelkanaal to the Tweede Maasvlakte. The return route runs via the Nieuwe Waterweg, the center of Rotterdam, Noord and Dordrecht. Keep this route separate from the day trip that departs from Rotterdam: the place of departure and the route differ.<\/p>\n
Take this amount and this sailing duration separately when comparing options; the rental price concerns boat Gemini 2. So when planning, pay attention not only to the destination, but also to the route and sailing time. This way you can distinguish the route via Lage Zwaluwe from the day trip from Rotterdam and find out which option fits your planning.<\/p>\n
Event on the water<\/h2>\n
Event op het Water organizes private cruises for groups who want to go out on the water together. For an outing in Amsterdam you can choose from a private cruise, a BBQ boat package or a drink boat package. This way you can adjust the speed to the occasion and your company.<\/p>\n
