Experience the Museum of German Inland Shipping with a group tour.
Combine your visit with a guided tour through the exciting and informative exhibition in the former Art Nouveau swimming pool with an experienced expert.
The tour lasts about one hour.
Please register as early as possible, but at least two weeks in advance. Then your desired date will also work!
In addition to the guided tours, we offer particularly favorable combination packages with a harbor cruise.
Languages
Our guides speak Dutch, English and French. Please indicate explicitly when booking if you would like a guided tour in a foreign language – and in which one!
