Very nice afternoon at Terrasje Speciale! - This was a truly unique experience! We drank a delicious specialty beer on the boat with bitterballen and were kindly helped by the staff. It is really like sitting on a normal terrace but then you also sail through the Groningen canals, where you can also sit covered when it rains.

A Must-Do in Groningen! - Don’t expect a traditional boat tour with recorded facts about the city. Expect an awesome time with your friends! Recently, I enjoyed the Boat Tour, and it was a fantastic experience! The boat was newly renovated, comfortable, and the bar was great. We had a blast. The staff were friendly and professional, and the selection of beers was excellent. The tour was well-organized and lasted just the right amount of time. I highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Groningen! It’s a unique and fun way to experience the city.

Amazing - Very friendly staff. Music was great, hard enough to hear it and not to hard so that people do not start screaming. Amazing!

Best terrace of Groningen - Best spot to have a beer without a doubt! Unique view from the city and great atmosphere to be on a boat. I don’t understand why there aren’t more businesses like this. Definitely recommended!😁

Boat ride in Groningen - Very staff, but there wasn't any commentary about what we were seeing from the boat. Also, I thought we would see more of Groningen and the sights.
