About the event
- Start and finish
- Andijk, Netherlands
We invite you on a yacht trip in the Netherlands, a country with the oldest maritime history, home of great travelers and shipbuilders.
The Netherlands is most often associated not with shipyards, but with red-light districts and coffee shops, and a little less often we associate this country with canals, houseboats and tulips. But nevertheless, it is a maritime power, Peter the Great himself came to Holland to study everything about the sea and laid the foundation for Russian maritime traditions.
We will devote this week to the central part of the Netherlands. Of course, the main gem of the trip will be Amsterdam, where we will stay a little longer so that you can enjoy all the delights of this city, but we will also see islands, seas, rivers, lakes and canals.
