Discover Gouda from the water, sail through the historic canals, and discover the fascinating story behind our world-famous city!

With its special boats, Bootje Kaas takes you to places that remain hidden from other canal tours. Discover the whole story during an approximately 1-hour trip. You’ll cruise in two directions through the canals of Gouda, following the north-south route that for centuries was used by all ships to travel from downtown Gouda to the Hollandse IJssel via the world’s longest lock.

The tour takes you past 11 historic sites, and our skippers will share plenty of fun facts about the city. For our international guests, there’s the option to listen and read along in your own language via a smartphone. Of course, you can also ask them your own questions!

Bootje Kaas is an interactive outing that’s fun for all ages!
