Cruise on the city canals in and around Sneek with an open boat (praam). Due to the low clearance, Grachtenrondvaart Sneek can show you the nicest and most intimate places in Sneek. The skipper talks about the rich history of the city. You will pass the icon of Sneek: the Waterpoort. The cruise takes just under an hour.
