Great time was had by all!
We were interested in getting out on the canal during our trip to Amsterdam. I read about the EBS Wonderland Bus for 10 euros and thought it was a great deal. On their website, it mentions things you can do in each town you can visit on the various routes. For Broek in Wonderland, it mentions that you can rent a fluisterboot or whisper boat and take a boat ride in the canals in the area. It costs 50 euros for 3 hours, plus 50 euros deposit. I looked into renting such a boat in Amsterdam and they wanted 50 euros for ONE hour!. I wasn't sure how interested my teenage daughters would be about this but they loved it! It was nice to get out of the hustle & bustle of the city and enjoy nature. The boat was very quiet and the owner showed us how to operate the boat. You get a laminated map showing you where to go on a 3 or 4 hour ride. There are also written directions. The boat has GPS so if you get lost, you can call them and they can tell you where you are! I was worried that we might get lost but we didn't. We didn't encounter many people on the water so that was nice. We did make a stop along the way. My husband didn't have any problems maneuvering the boat after some practice - he just hit the abutement twice and ran into a canoe on a blind corner (not his fault!). Totally worth the experience! Be sure to make a reservation though. Their place can be a little difficult to find, it's not in the town itself. GPS will get you there!
