Three waters, three kinds of evening
Most cities have one shipping area. The Hague has three, and they are completely dissimilar. Choose the water first and then the menu, because the duration of the cruise determines what the kitchen can do. If you want to sail without food on board, look at the private Canal Cruise The Hague.
The Hague city canals along Hofvijver and Binnenhof (2 hours)
Departure from the Bierkade, right in the center. You will sail through the historic city canals along the Hofvijver, the Binnenhof, the Mauritskade and the Veerkade. Compact and Urban, with a lot to see in a short time. Two hours is enough for a walking dinner or luxurious platters going around, but tight for an extensive multi-course menu. The most frequently chosen option for a corporate dinner immediately after working hours.
The Trekvliet towards Voorburg and Delft (2.5 to 3 hours)
A historic canal that runs out of the city towards Voorburg and Delft. Outside the center it becomes quiet: green banks, old country houses and hardly any other traffic on the water. Because there is less distraction, a sedentary arrangement comes into its own here better than in the busy city center. It is also nice when there is a speech or thank you moment on the program during dinner.
From the Port of Scheveningen towards the coast (3 hours or longer)
Boarding in the Port of Scheveningen gives a completely different backdrop: fishing ships, yachts, quays and the sky over the North Sea. How far the boat travels towards the coast, the skipper adjusts to the weather, the type of boat and the company, so that is recorded in the quotation. Count on three hours or more, because the acceptance alone takes time. You can read more about this area at the rondvaart Scheveningen.

When does a dinner cruise leave The Hague?
This is the question that organizers most often overlook, and at a dinner he counts more heavily than at a drink. Departure in The Hague is possible until approximately 22: 00, depending on the municipal rules. That means you have to count back from the moment you want to get off.
Example. If you want to be back on the quay at 22:00 and sail for three hours with a full package, you will leave at 19:00 and your company will gather around 18:45. Those who only drop in at 19:30 after a working day will be in trouble with a three-course menu. Then a two-hour cruise with a walking dinner is the better choice.
In the summer months it is light for a long time and a late start works fine. In winter, darkness falls before the aperitif, which makes the illuminated canals more beautiful. When requesting, specify what time your guests are realistically on board, then the route will be adjusted accordingly.

Our customers
What is served on board?
Some of The Hague's providers sail you to a restaurant on the canal, where you disembark to eat. At an event on the Water, the catering staff sails along and the company stays on board.
- Walking dinner. Several small dishes scattered around the cruise. The most chosen form on the city canals, because people keep walking around and changing places.
- Luxury platters and finger food. Dishes that go around, suitable for a company that especially wants to catch up.
- BBQ on board. A cook prepares during the cruise. For that, see the BBQ boat The Hague complete arrangements.
- Pizza from the oven. Informal and popular at birthdays and bachelorette parties. Look for the possibilities at the Pizza boat The Hague.
- Vegetarian, halal, gluten-free or a children's menu are agreed in advance. In the application, indicate how many people are involved.
Are you in doubt between two forms? Mention the type of company and the desired sailing duration with the application, then an appropriate proposal will be made.

How many people can you book for?
A luxury sloop in The Hague takes 10 to 40 people. For larger groups of up to 100 people, Event op het Water pairs several sloops that leave at the same time and sail the same route, each with its own skipper and its own bar. At the drop-off point, everyone comes together again.
Good to know in advance: on a sloop you sit on comfortable benches along the side, not at a set table with chairs. For a walking dinner, platters, BBQ or pizza that is no objection, because those shapes are made on it. For a formally served three-course menu, a saloon boat is more suitable, and those sail in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Utrecht.
Is your party over 100 people? Then Event on the Water refers to diner boat Rotterdam or Amsterdam, where passenger ships sail up to 700 people. If you want to determine the content yourself, check out the options to create a boat rentals in The Hague.

How much does a dinner boat cost in The Hague?
The price consists of the cruise and the package. The cruise starts from € 39.95 per person incl. VAT for two hours and increases via € 49.95 for 2.5 hours and € 57.95 for three hours to € 64.95 per person for 3.5 hours with coupled sloops. It contains the boat, the skipper, the catering staff and unlimited beer, wine, soft drinks, coffee and tea.
The food comes on top of that and differs in shape. Luxury platters are lower than an extensive walking dinner or a BBQ with a chef on board. When comparing quotes, pay attention to whether the drink is included and whether the food is served on board or in a restaurant on shore. A rate that only covers boat rental looks lower, but charges drinks and food separately.
Request a quote for the exact amount for your group size, sailing area and menu choice.

Getting off: Bierkade, De Pijp or the Port of Scheveningen
Each boarding location belongs to one of the Three Waters. Which one applies, therefore, follows from the chosen sailing area.
- The main location, right in the Center and near the Binnenhof. Departure point for the tours through the city canals of The Hague, within walking distance of the station and with parking nearby.
- pipe. On the outskirts of the city, starting point towards the Trekvliet, Voorburg and Delft. Useful when your guests come by car and want to avoid the center.
- The Port Of Scheveningen. For sailing towards the coast, between the fishing vessels and yachts. Spacious and easily accessible by car.
Deviating from these locations can be done in consultation with the sales department. Getting on and off doesn't have to happen in the same place, which is nice when dinner is the beginning or end of a longer day.

Dinner boat The Hague: eating on the water in the hofstad
Few people know that in The Hague you can sail from a historic canal to a towboat or a seaport within one evening. This spread makes the city suitable for very different groups: a tight company dinner along the Binnenhof requires something different than a family evening with sea air.
First determine the water and the end time, then the rest will follow by itself. Bookings can be made from 10 people, up to 100 via linked sloops. The boat, the crew, the bar and the kitchen are arranged.
Without charge ⤵
“ We have had a cruise through the canals of Utrecht with our company. Fortunately, we were lucky that the weather was beautiful. We really enjoyed the delicious freshly prepared BBQ and delicious chilled drinks. From the water it is really a beautiful view. Sail past the centraal museum from the boarding point under hoog Catharijne.
Really recommended to go sailing on the water with an Event!”

What time can a dinner cruise leave?
Departure is possible until about 22: 00, depending on the municipal rules. Count back from the time you want to disembark: with a three-hour cruise, that means departure no later than around 19:00. For a later start, a shorter cruise with walking dinner is the more practical choice.
Which sailing areas are there in The Hague?
There are three possibilities. The Hague city canals along the Hofvijver and Binnenhof, the Trekvliet towards Voorburg and Delft, and the area from the Scheveningen Port towards the coast. The sailing area determines the duration of the trip and therefore which package fits.
How many people can I book?
A luxury sloop takes 10 to 40 people. For groups of up to 100 people, several sloops are linked that leave at the same time, each with its own skipper and bar. Above 100 people, Event on the Water refers to Rotterdam or Amsterdam, where passenger ships sail up to 700 people.
Will the food be served on board?
Yes, the catering staff sails along and serves during the trip. The boat does not have to dock at a restaurant. At a BBQ, a cook prepares on board. Dietary requirements such as vegetarian, halal or gluten-free are coordinated in advance.
Can you dine at a set table on the sloop?

Can a dinner cruise also take place in winter?
Yes, sailing is possible all year round. In bad weather, the canopy closes and the boat is heated, while the bar remains open. In winter, darkness falls early, making the illuminated canals more beautiful. Only in extreme weather conditions will an alternative date be sought in consultation.
