"The Caprice was worn out from the season and couldn’t be used, so we were offered a Horizon instead — much more comfortable. There were a few small end-of-season issues, but the technical team was absolutely excellent.""

Region : Amsterdam-Dutch Canals - Cruise carried out on Jun 9, 2025
"The boat is very spacious and comfortable for two people. However, in waves (even with little wind), it is very noisy in the sleeping cabin. However, this is due to the construction/soundproofing (plastic) of the boat."
