For our own boats, Sloepvrienden charges NO additional pick-up fees within Amsterdam’s canal belt (the orange locations on the map). For locations outside the canal belt (the purple locations), an additional fee applies due to the extra sailing time. Click on a location on the map to see the applicable fee.

When requesting quotes from different boat rental companies, make sure to check whether additional pick-up or sailing fees apply. These costs can make a significant difference to the final price.

Parking in Amsterdam

Are you travelling to Amsterdam by train? We recommend boarding near Amsterdam Central Station (CS).

If you are coming by car, we recommend parking outside the city centre and taking public transport into central Amsterdam. Amsterdam has several P+R (Park and Ride) locations where you can park at a reduced rate under the applicable conditions.

For example, you can park near the Johan Cruijff ArenA and take the metro into the city centre. Convenient boarding locations include the Stopera and Amsterdam Central Station.

Please check the current parking rates, conditions and parking regulations before your visit, as these may change.
