Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

01 - How long does a standard boat tour last?

A boat trip through Lier lasts 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?

From April 1st to October 31st, we’re ready to welcome you! You’ll find us at the quay every Saturday, Sunday, and public holiday between 2:00 PM and 5:30 PM. In July and August, we set sail more frequently – check our website for the latest schedule.

03 - Do I need to book in advance?

How convenient is that! It’s possible to buy a ticket on the spot if we still have seats available. We set sail several times an hour, so even if a boat is full, you can usually hop on the next one – grab a drink on a terrace, and before you know it, you’ll be on board! But want to be sure of a spot? Just reserve in advance via our website or give us a call. This is especially a good idea on weekends and during holidays!

04 - How much does a boat trip cost?

For just €5, you’re already on board! Bringing kids? Even better: little ones under 12 sail for only €2. Prefer a private boat? For €50, you can have an entire boat to yourself (2 to 10 people), and extra friends or family can join for €5 per person.

Planning a celebration? With our aperitif option (€4 extra per person), it’s even more festive! Dreaming of a romantic wedding cruise? For €70, we’ll provide a special wedding boat for 10 people (extra guests can join for €5 per person).

Coming with a group of 10 or more? We’re happy to arrange a group package – with or without aperitifs on board!

05 - Is the boat wheelchair accessible?

We do our best to ensure everyone has an enjoyable trip! However, our historic boats have some accessibility limitations. Let us know if you have mobility issues, and we’ll work with you to make your experience as comfortable as possible.
