What do guests say about us?
Our customers
What's on The Hague tapas shelf?
The tapas package combines cold and hot Spanish dishes that the catering staff prepares and serves on board. Think of serranoham, manchego, chorizo, marinated olives, gambas, albóndigas, patatas bravas and tortilla. Vegetarian, vegan and halal variants are compiled on request, so please indicate dietary requirements when requesting.
At the bar you lack nothing. The Dutch bar with beer, wine, soft drinks, coffee and tea is unlimited and is included in the price as standard. You can add a glass of cava or a pitcher of sangria as an upgrade, to match the tapas.
Served hot, not prepared in advance
In many tapas packages in The Hague, the snacks are already presented on the table when you step on board. That looks nice on the first photo, but also means that the gamba’s, albóndigas and patatas bravas are no longer warm half an hour later.
The catering staff sail along on the tapas boat of Event op het Water. The cold dishes are ready on departure, the Hot Ones follow in rounds from the galley as you sail. Therefore, a speed of 2.5 hours is the advice: at two hours fewer rounds fit in and the serving is rushed.
Tapas boat Scheveningen: Spanish snacks with sea air
Tapas and a port belong together, and The Hague is the only city where events on the Water can literally offer that. From the Port of Scheveningen you sail between fishing ships and yachts, with space to park next to the boarding point. For companies that want to go to the beach or the boulevard afterwards, this is the practical starting point.
The tapas boat Scheveningen is the same boat with the same arrangement, only with a different decor and a longer sailing duration. You can read more about this area at the rondvaart Scheveningen.
Rent a tapas boat in The Hague from 10 people
Were you looking for a tapas boat in The Hague for eight people? Then two more are added, because the minimum is 10. In theory, a boat can accommodate fewer people, but the cost is in the boat and crew and not in the extra guests. Per person, it becomes disproportionately expensive.
Good to know: several providers in The Hague use a higher minimum for their tapas arrangement, sometimes fourteen people. If your company is in between, then it is possible at an Event on the Water. From 40 people, several sloops are linked, up to 100 people in total.
Why tapas works better on a sloop than a dinner
On a sloop, everyone sits on comfortable benches along the side, not at a set table with chairs. For a served three-course menu that is difficult, but for tapas it is ideal. Dishes go around, people lean forward, someone slides up to get to the chorizo.
This makes the tapas boat suitable for companies where not everyone knows each other well: a new team, a family that sees little of each other, a bachelor party with two groups of friends. If you are only looking for drinks with snacks, then the borrelboot The Hague better. If you prefer pizza to Spanish dishes, take a look at the Pizza Boat The Hague.

Embarkation and disembarkation locations in The Hague
Which location applies depends on the chosen route.
- The main location, right in the Center and near the Binnenhof. Departure point for the tours through The Hague city canals, within walking distance of the station.
- pipe. On the outskirts of the city, starting point towards the Trekvliet, Voorburg and Delft. Useful when your guests come by car.
- The Port Of Scheveningen. For the trips from the coast, between the fishing vessels and yachts. Spacious with parking nearby.
Deviating from these locations can be done in consultation with the sales department. Getting on and off does not have to be done in the same place, which is useful if the company continues somewhere after that.

“ 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!”

How long does the cruise take?
