HISTORIC VINEYARD TJALK (1908)

DecaroRating, 5 stars1 week ago

the accommodation is as advertised. It's an old barge... with the pros, exotic, unusual, and the cons, be careful with the water... but everything is said in the description so there are no bad surprises. Harold is very welcoming. We arrived by train, he picked us up at the first tram stop, which was a real plus. Access to the center of Amsterdam is 20 minutes either by tram 26 or bus 37, 10 minutes' walk from the boat. bike access to friendly fishing villages in 30-45 minutes (very nice ride). In short, very happy with this family vacation.
