Boat rentals and canal cruises in Leiden

All our boats are electric and therefore easy to handle, comfortable and silent.

Our sustainable shipping company "Bootjes en Broodjes" is located in the heart of the city Leiden. Our location is a formerly bridgekeepershouse at the Blauwpoortsbrug (Blueportalbridge). It is a unique spot to start your boattour over the beautiful canals of Leiden. But also to explore the waterrich hinterland as the "Kagerplassen" or the "Braassemmermeer", the lake area close to Leiden.

Go and discover it yourself in one of our electric sloops (no license required), we'll provide you with a map of the waterways and a brief instruction how to handle the boat and of you go. Or let us guide you on one of our canal cruises or on a private boat tour, in which case you rent the boat with a skipper/guide.

If you want some onboard catering with your private boat tour than we can take care of it, but you are also allowed to take care of it yourself.
