Beautiful views and great information - Our female captain was fun, knowledgeable and thoughtful. We were fortunate to have a small group of women on our boat in the morning sunshine on our tour. It was a delightful way to see Ghent and to learn more about this beautiful city.

Delicious - What a fantastic experience this is. Not a boring boat trip at all, but an educational and at the same time funny way to learn more about Ghent from the water. This can be attributed to our guide who was able to tell wonderful stories with a humorous twist in perfect Dutch, French and English.

City trip + Valentine’s Day - A visit with superb sunshine Well detailed explanations We recommend THOMAS! basic guide, he knows the history + anecdotes with a touch of humor! Explained in NL - FR and ENG I recommend this guide! Cup of cava or beer for this riverboat tour We learned about the city, its culture, history and anecdotes

Stunning, - Fantastic guide, very informative and entertaining, saw a beautiful side of Ghent, would do again. Regards Sharyn

What time? - I would like to book it for tomorrow, but there is no information on the site about what time the cruise starts. Does anyone know where this is?

We loved the trip but... - We loved the trip but Dutch and Italian were clearly the preferred languages . I translated quite a few things for my English guests as many things were skipped

TMI-Keep it Moving! - WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much information. Standing (for 25+ minutes at a time) to hear something that could be said in under 5 minutes was rough. Hot day, crowded, confusing start...and then we do the cruise on our own? No thanks! Glad I met some nice people.

It was great to see the... - It was great to see the city from the canal's point of view. It was relaxing and the information was basic, which was fine for us who took a historical tour few hours before.

Sailing 1200 meters for €10 - We did a boat tour in a closed boat. There was a 40-minute guided boat trip on the Leie and the Lieve to the Rabot Towers and back. We haven't gotten that far yet. We sailed from the Grasbrug to the Predikherenbrug and back to Grasbrug and from there we sailed a bit over the Lieve to the Gravensteen and back to the Grasbrug. From the Predikherenbrug to Gravensteen is approximately 600 meters. 40 minutes over 1200 meters. From the Gravensteen to the Rabot Towers is approximately 700 meters (total 1400). So we had a half boat tour Dart was very disappointing for €10 p.p. The nice guide of course had to fill his time with that short piece during that long time and kept talking about the difference between Bruges and the largest Ghent. Also that we got more value for our money here. Which started to irritate us quite a bit and also the Popie Jopie stories. Now I tell you that we saw more in Bruges and a longer trip for €10 than in Ghent.

Aggressive assault of woman on her own - I can’t give zero stars unfortunately but I’ll explain why our experience was so bad: After booking tickets prior to travelling to Belgium, we arrived to board the boat (directions good, easy to find) and were given a ticket to return in 40 minutes for our boat. Great, no problem. We then returned and got ready to board. So far so good. But just as we were boarding, the boat guide said something to the lady in front of us about going back to the ticket office. We assumed she needed to exchange her e ticket for a paper ticket as we had done. She then asked again to board (turns out she was asking to sit at the back rather than front of the boat due to illness if she sits near the engine). Despite there being empty seats at the front and not the back of the boat, the guide was refusing for some reason. After she questioned this a second time, he jumped out of the boat, launched himself towards her, put both hands on her shoulders, turned her towards the ticket office and shoved her away, hard. He did this whilst shouting at her to leave and get on another boat. We were utterly shocked. It was so aggressive and so unprovoked, 0-60 in less than a second. She had been so calm, quiet and reasonable in her request and it was so odd how his manner was so out of proportion to hers. She calmly stated “you cannot push me, you should not put your hands on me. I’m going to call the police”. He laughed and said, “call the police!” Members of my party and one other gentleman tried to say to him that he couldn’t behave like that and this was unacceptable treatment of another person. He brushed this off and ignored us. We then disembarked before the tour left, not wanting to take a boat ride with such an agressive, unreasonable person at the helm. While the poor young woman on her own who was assaulted called the Police, we waited with her, and tried to speak to the man who worked in the boat tour ticket office. When we told him what happened, he asked “did she fall?” When we said no, he shrugged. We returned to try to get ourselves booked on another boat tour and were told we had to wait another 35 minutes. When we explained that this delay felt a little unfair and asked to take a sooner tour (there was at least one) as we had not wanted to take our scheduled tour with an agressive, nasty boat driver, the man in the ticket office didn’t care. He kept saying we had to wait. We agreed to do this but asked that he apologised to us, both for his staff member’s behaviour, and for the delay we experienced directly because of it. He refused to apologise and began to serve the people in the queue behind us. He did not reach out to the victim to apologise nor did he attempt to find out what happened from her or from his staff member. We decided not to take a tour with this company and later had a pleasant tour from their competitor, directly across the river. Luckily the police arrived very quickly and spoke to the poor girl. They confirmed that they would be speaking to the offender when he returned from the current boat tour he was on and would be taking his ID. We did later see them speak to him and also noticed that another couple who did board our scheduled tour with him and also witnessed the assault then also spoke to the police. Hopefully they were also complaining about his behaviour. Unfortunately he continued to drive boat tours for the rest of the day. If I was his boss, I’d have suspended him for treating customers that way. What is the most shocking is the complete lack of acknowledgement of his wrongdoing by the company, as if they endorsed that treatment of their customers. Unbelievable. I am certain had a man made a request to sit in a specific part of the boat, that he would not have grabbed, pushed and shoved him the way he did to this poor lone young girl. Misogyny at its finest. Shocking behaviour, and I hope that the people who chose to take a tour with this company, having witnessed this incident are ashamed of themselves. We all have mothers, sisters, daughters, female friends etc. We all have a responsibility to stand up for women’s rights. Absolutely disgraceful behaviour. Avoid this company unless they acknowledge and sack this despicable, aggressive employee.
