Albert’s houseboat is a dream. Very clean, stylish and well stocked. The location is perfect and quiet with just a short walk across Magere Brug and you are in the action. The space is small but well laid out with an open floor plan.
If you like to cook like we do you will find Spar and Albert Hein grocery stores nearby. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware.
We liked the corner cafe called “Amstel” and “Brug 34” for a quick coffee./ beer. AWe also like 24K karaoke and Lebelle bar on Tuesday is a fun drag queen hang out.
We rented a canal boat and drove ourselves around the canals. We brought a picnic and books to read so we could enjoy floating around. There are several companies you can rent from. The only thing I’d do different is get one with comfortable pillows and seating.
We found IonQ to be the best rental car option to see more of Holland. NO deposit. Easy to sign up and only $60 euro for the day (hourly rates also available). Be sure to get your international drivers license (AAA provides them in USA). We visited Enkhuizen, Alkmaar, Zaans Schans and Haarlem with ease.
We enjoyed ourselves so much we extended our stay another 4 days.
