Yes we have a full operating toilet on board
We can also take a wheelchair aboard but do mind that the entry of the boat is not especially catered to disabled persons and has a relatively steep step to get in the boat. Also, we have limited space on board and thus a non-folding wheelchair will have to stay in the saloon or on the back deck.
Buggies are no problem, please fold in when entering the boat if possible.
We do allow animals on our boat but only on our private tours as on ticket tours this might not be desired by our other guests.
Our boat is covered and warm in windy and rainy conditions. We will only cancel the tour if a weather alarm is given by the local authorities. In this case we will of course inform you beforehand.
Smoking is allowed if it doesn't disturb your other guests. You can also smoke on our outside deck separate from your other guests.
