Windmill cruise from Leiden
About this experience
From the city center of Leiden we will sail you to the beautiful lakes in less than 30 minutes. Once you arrive at the 'Amsterdam lakes' you can enjoy the Dutch polder landscape. This area is characterized by shallow lakes and islands. The islands are polders and are still being drained by 18 restored polder mills in operation. Most of these mills can be seen during the cruise. We will sail along polders with cows in the meadow, islands with historic windmills, colorful bulb fields and beautiful views. The lakes are littered with sailing boats and small boats, it cannot be more Dutch!

After the embarkation has been completed, we sail off from the historical city of 'Leiden' for a beautiful cruise through the Green Heart, characterized by shallow lakes and islands. The islands are polders and are still being drained by 18 restored polder mills in operation. Most of these mills can be seen during the cruise. This is Holland in its entirety: polders, cows, windmills, lakes, beautiful views and beautiful Dutch villages. The Green Heart is a national landscape. The different areas within the Green Heart of Holland have their own character and appearance. Each area is unique in terms of location, landscape and cultural history. Together they make the Green Heart of Holland a special landscape. The captain informs you about all the sights during the trip. Our employees are available when it comes to a drink, a snack or a simple lunch.
