The boat driver did a great job of guiding and touring. However, the staff nearby the canal was so impolite as he even said this person cannot understand English. Extremely offensive to an Asian girl who just wanted to see how beautiful Gent is but now just left a sad memory of feeling racist. Apologies that I can only speak English, Mandarin and Japanese while not the language that you were speaking.

Had an amazing time today with our f guide and a glass of beer on the boat. Very knowledgeable, very fun, very interesting facts. The tour is just in the central part of the river, but it offers a lot of insight to the city and I would recommend you take it before you visit the spots one by one, so as to have a summary of the city

I think one of the most ideal ways to visit the city is to visit the canals. you can rent a canoe or join a tour like this. On the tour, which takes 40 minutes for 8.5 Euros, you can visit the main canals and see structures such as Gravensteen Castle. The person using the boat also guides and introduces the surroundings in English, French and Dutch.

I really loved the tour, even the guide is a way better than the tour in bruges

I would recommend taking a boat tour. It gave me a better idea of the city and places to visit on foot. The views were stunning. What I didn’t like much was the fact that the guide talked really fast.

(Translated by Google) This tour passes beautiful places and you get to see a lot. Unfortunately we were unable to understand the guide (sound). (Original) Deze tocht komt langs mooie plekken en je krijgt veel te zien. Wij konden helaas de gids slecht verstaan (geluid).

(Translated by Google) Nice day in Ghent. De Graslei and Korenlei were full, no more seats on the terraces. A lot of atmosphere and very pleasant tourist crowds. Also on a seat in one of the boats was the joining blown but the wait was rewarded because this beautiful city and its history view from the water is still different and different. All boats were well filled and the excellent guide provided a pleasant speed with the right relaxed explanation! Absolutely recommended. (Original) Mooie dag in Gent. De Graslei en de Korenlei liepen vol , geen stoel meer vrij op de terrassen. Veel sfeer en erg gezellige toeristische drukte. Ook op een zitje in één van de boten was het aanschuiven geblazen maar het wachten werd wel beloond want deze mooie stad en zijn geschiedenis bekijken vanop het water is toch anders en apart. Alle boten zaten uiteindelijk goed gevuld en de prima gids zorgde voor een aangename vaart met de juiste ontspannen uitleg ! Absoluut aan te raden.

Amazing value for money, you get to learn alot from the captain who adds his element of humour to the tour which made it really enjoyable.

Because of the cloudy weather, we decided to take a cover boat. Big mistake people... The windows got foggy as hell, it also rained a little so we didn't saw a thing. People from other boats (not covered) waved at us as they were passing by, but from our boat nobody waved back, we couldn't saw nothing through our 'privacy' glass. The captain should Google some solutions for this (interior anti-fogging and water repellent glass coating for exterior).

We enjoyed the tour very much thanks to a charming guide with a great sense of humor. He even smoothed out the impression of a slightly unfriendly person selling boat tickets. I have lived in Belgium for 5 years now, and I have never been on a canal boat in Ghent. My friends who just came to Belgium: a married couple with 2 kids loved the tour very much. Next time we have guests coming over, I will definitely take them there again for the experience! Thanks Peter! 🤗

(Translated by Google) Beautiful boat trips through the touristy Ghent !!! (Original) Prachtige boottochten door het toeristische Gent !!!

(Translated by Google) Boat trip is fun, but the guide was very busy with a couple of Spanish guests and forgot about the Dutch-speaking guests. Had the idea that there was more to tell. (Original) Boottochtje is leuk, maar gids had het erg druk met onderonsjes met enkele spaanse gasten en vergat de nederlands sprekende gasten. Had het idee dat er wel meer te vertellen was.

(Translated by Google) A nice and nice boat tour for a good price and a good duration. There was everything you wanted to know and was really interesting. The only thing that bothered us was something that was often pointed out, that you have to tip. But otherwise a nice and great boat ride! (Original) Eine schöne und nette Bootstour um einen guten Preis und eine gute Dauer. Es gab alles an Infos was man wissen wollte und war wirklich sehr interessant. Das einzige was uns etwas störte war, das öfters darauf hingewiesen wurde, dass man unbedingt Trinkgeld geben muss. Aber ansonsten eine schöne und tolle Bootsfahrt!

(Translated by Google) Groomed and very correct. (Original) Verzorgd en zeer correct.

We had such a great guide on this boat trip. She had a long blond braid and speaks 5 languages. She combined the history of the town with more recent events and humour. Would definitely recommend this for anyone not too conservative!

We had a very good time on board. Our guide was very motivated and told us lots of interesting things! 9 EUR is a very good price.

Had a lovely tour of the city. The guide provided narration in Dutch, French and English. The trip tour lasted 45 minutes and was free with a citycard.

Nice tour, can recommend. However, instead of promised 50 minutes, it was a standard 40, exactly as everybody else.

did this tour a few weeks ago. Doesn't travel far but does give a great (and funny) insight into the central area and its buildings. Covered boat which was a must as it was pouring down. I can recommend this tour.

The person in the booth was super rude when I came to ask a couple of questions before the tour. I asked how the Spanish guide worked (I wanted to know wether it was a PDF, an audio, or something else) for my senior uncle to be able to go on the boat, and the person on the booth just started answering very rudely

Great boat tour in Ghent. Our captain, Pieter, was fun and informative. He was patient enough to answer all my questions. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great experience. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny. Highly recommend to anybody.

(Translated by Google) Super boat tour with a very good guide (Mathieu) who will tell you very good anecdotes about the city and the surroundings of Le Lys! I highly recommend !! (Original) Super tour en bateau avec un très bon guide (Mathieu) qui vous racontera de très bonnes anecdotes sur la ville et les alentours du Lys ! Je recommande vivement !!

(Translated by Google) Some edges. They never offered boats in Spanish. We went to the boats next door. (Original) Unos bordes. Nunca ofrecían botes en español. Fuimos a los botes de al lado.

Would use this as the definition of a tourist trap.

(Translated by Google) 40-minute cruise for only EUR 8.00. Actually it is not really a 'round trip', because the boat sails the canal back and forth. Still, I thought it was very worthwhile. The skipper / guide was a friendly guy with a good sense of humor. His story was interesting & funny. Tip: for EUR 5.00 you can get a beer (please indicate in advance). It is good beer (Gulden Draak) and if you have a drink you do not need a mouth cap. (Original) Rondvaart van 40 minuten voor slechts EUR 8,00. Eigenlijk is het niet echt een 'rondvaart', want de boot vaart het kanaal heen-en-terug. Toch vond ik het erg de moeite waard. De schipper/gids was een vriendelijke vent met een goed gevoel voor humor. Zijn verhaal was interessant & grappig. Tip: voor EUR 5,00 kan je een biertje krijgen (vooraf even aangeven). Het is lekker bier (Gulden Draak) en als je een consumptie hebt hoef je geen mondkapje op.

(Translated by Google) Interesting and pretty. (Original) Intéressant et joli.

(Translated by Google) Nice boat tours of 40 minutes. The guide was best. He spoke French and Dutch. An advantage if you understand both languages, as it often complemented each other. A thoroughbred Ghent. Just great. Better than in Bruges (Original) Schöne Bootstouren von 40 Minuten. Am besten war der Guide. Er sprach französisch und niederländisch. Von Vorteil wenn man beide Sprachen versteht, da es sich öfters ergänzte. Ein vollblut Genter. Einfach toll. Besser als in Brügge

The boat captain was so knowledgeable and entertaining I wished we were on the cruise longer. It is not expensive and I would recommend asking ahead for a ticket for beer or cava.

The best way to discover Ghent. In about 40 mins you get to see the highlights of Ghent from the waterside.

Great tour, see bits of ghent you miss on foot, dog friendly

(Translated by Google) Visit bad, bad translation of papers in Spanish, and dirty and fogged ship in which you did not see anything, and for that, expensive (Original) Visita mala, mala traducción de papeles en español, y barco sucio y empañado en el que no veías nada, y para eso, caro

I got feedback speech from the reservation department at station. It destroy my holiday.

I took this boat tour recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. A wonderful way to explore the beautiful city of Ghent. Our guide Pieter was enthusiastic, funny & informative. Short & sweet, wished it was longer. Would recommend.

You should definitely try it))

DMax that bunch of waterchickens.

Cool scenery here.

If you have a day or more in Gent\Ghent it's worth doing. It was raining when we were there so we opted for a glass covered boat. The captain gave us info and history about Gent, buildings on the canal and waterway itself. I believe it took about 30 minutes. The experience may be better if the weather is clearer and you can go in an uncovered boat.

Nice boat trip around part of the city

(Translated by Google) Not worth it. First, they have sold 6 tickets for people who did not enter the boat. We have been on a roofed ship, that might also influence, besides we were like "canned sardines." A gloomy environment, the guide told jokes of tourists and only we laughed .... Weird atmosphere, like when you know that after this they will kill you ... (Original) No merece la pena. De primeras, han vendido 6 tickets para personas que no entraban en el barco. Nosotros hemos estado en un barco techado, puede que eso también influya, además de que estábamos como "sardinas en lata". Un ambiente lúgubre, el guía contaba chistes de turistas y solo nos reíamos nosotros.... Ambiente raro, como cuando sabes que después de esto te van a matar....

(Translated by Google) To the Spaniards the guide did not even want to see us ... I guess they still remember the exploits of Carlos V. Hehehe ... (Original) A los españoles el guía no nos quería ni ver... Supongo que aún se acuerdan de las hazañas de Carlos V. Jejeje...

(Translated by Google) Together with my love I did a boat trip of about 45 minutes with the covered boat. The price is right and presentation by the guide was nice and good, but the route was very short and the roof of the boat prevented me from seeing many things. (Original) Ik deed samen met mijn lief een boottocht van ongeveer drie kwartier met de overdekte boot. De prijs is goed en presentatie door de gids was leuk en goed, maar het afgelegde traject was wel erg kort en door het dak van de boot heb ik veel dingen niet goed kunnen zien.

(Translated by Google) Certainly interesting to do (Original) Zeker interessant om te doen

Very nice tour!

(Translated by Google) Nice boat trip. Ideal weather. We were allowed to sit in a 'smaller' boat. Plenty of space, cozy atmosphere on board. Ideal way to discover Ghent in a different way. (Original) Leuk boottochtje. Ideaal weer. We mochten plaatsnemen in een 'kleinere' boot. Lekker veel plaats, gezellige sfeer aan boord. Ideale manier om Gent op een andere manier te ontdekken .

(Translated by Google) Nice cruise! Unfortunately no umbrellas were offered in very hot weather, while other cruises did. Got a free beer and the information was great! Friendly sir. (Original) Leuke rondvaart! Helaas geen paraplu's aangeboden gekregen bij erg warm weer, terwijl andere rondvaarten dit wel hadden. Kregen wel een gratis biertje en de informatie was prima! Vriendelijke meneer.

(Translated by Google) Very nice and pleasant boat trip despite the heat in the city. The guide could tell very funny. (Original) Heel leuke en aangename boottocht gemaakt ondanks de hitte in de stad. De gidst kon heel grappig vertellen.

(Translated by Google) Very friendly and stingy with their information about the present and now. You can pay with the card, which is also handy today. (Original) Zeer vriendelijk wel gierig met hun informatie over het heden en nu. Je kan er met de kaart betalen,wat ook handig is de dag van vandaag.

Always a great way to see the city.

(Translated by Google) A walk through the canals of Ghent to see the city in another perspective and have a good time ... if the weather accompanies, which is not normal, so warm up! (Original) Un paseo por los canales de Gante para ver la ciudad en otra perspectiva y pasar un buen rato... si el tiempo acompaña, que no es lo normal, así que abriguense bien!

(Translated by Google) Well nice ... informative certainly nice but the tour was very short and well-arranged. And that does not really benefit the price / quality ratio. (Original) Wel aardig... informatief zeker wel leuk maar het rondreisje was wel erg kort en overzichtelijk. En dat komt de prijs/kwaliteit verhouding niet echt ten goede.

(Translated by Google) Charming gent area with typical Flemish houses, canals and beautiful monuments (Original) Charmant quartier de gent avec ses maisons typiques de style flamand , ses canaux et ses jolis monuments

(Translated by Google) Very nice cruise with a guide who tells a lot of facts about the area and the different buildings. When it's chilly you can take a blanket on the boat. Definitely recommended if you go to Ghent! (Original) Heel leuke rondvaart met een gids die veel weetjes verteld over de omgeving en de verschillende gebouwen. Als het fris is kan je een dekentje meenemen op de boot. Zeker een aanrader als je naar Gent ga!

(Translated by Google) Nice cruise. The boat sometimes makes a lot of noise. (Original) Leuke rondvaart. De boot maakt soms nogal wat herrie.

40 mins boat trip for €7.5, whilst the driver / guide explains about the surroundings in two languages, pretty good and informative
