No Experience Required

Almere, located in the Dutch province of Flevoland, offers a fresh and exciting vantage point for those keen to experience a city shaped by water. Founded on reclaimed land less than 50 years ago, Almere stands apart with its innovative urban design and sprawling wetlands. Boarding the 12-person motorboat "Boei2," adventurers can relish a self-guided cruise through calm waterways, bringing a new meaning to exploring the Netherlands’ modern marvel.

This outing is perfect for groups looking to unwind in nature without leaving city comforts far behind. With no skipper on board, guests have the freedom to pilot the sleek motorboat themselves — a rare opportunity to engage actively with Almere’s watery landscape. The journey glides past delicate reed beds and tranquil nature reserves where waterfowl thrive, while also offering brisk glimpses of Almere’s contemporary skyline, showcasing the city’s daring architecture.

The motorboat’s design balances ease of use with ample space, comfortably seating up to twelve passengers. It’s an ideal choice for families, friends, or work colleagues eager to escape into open air, weaving through canals and open lakes. Safety instructions and departure assistance accompany the rental, ensuring novices feel confident. Just bring your own refreshments for an alfresco float surrounded by the peaceful Dutch countryside.

Almere’s unique position on the IJsselmeer and proximity to the Oostvaardersplassen—a notable nature reserve capturing Europe’s wild heart—create an alluring backdrop for this experience. Unlike other urban boating excursions, here you can witness a blend of raw natural beauty mixed with cutting-edge human achievement on water.

Getting to the meeting point at Noorderplassenweg 150 is straightforward, and arriving 30 minutes early is recommended for a smooth start. Note that the tour excludes food, drinks, and transportation to the dock, and returns operate on your own schedule within booking hours. This flexibility maximizes the freedom to linger in favorite spots or explore wider regions of Almere’s watery grid.

Whether it’s a midweek retreat or weekend gathering, sailing on the Boei2 motorboat casts Almere in an intimate light few visitors discover. This experience uniquely connects you with the city’s environmental past, present, and innovative future — all from the welcoming helm of your own vessel on pristine Dutch waters.
