The houseboat is in an excellent location, walking distance to restaurants, cafes, bars and attractions. From the airport we took the train to Amsterdam centraal ( you can pre book tickets online ) then walked to the boat which took 20mins.The Nine Streets are on the doorstep as is Ann Frank museum and we took a boat trip with ‘Those Dam Boat Guys’ . Supermarkets are close by so we made a couple of meals in the boat but we also used Jaap’s recommendations and visited La Perla for excellent pizza and Bar Tuin. The boat has everything you need and is warm and gorgeous. It made a lovely change from hotels and we would love to return. Thanks again Jaap and Natalie.
