Rederij Nassau

Wat heeft ons land toch een prachtige hoofdstad. Met al haar grachten, monumentale panden en knusse straten is Amsterdam een bijzonder mooie plek. Vanaf het water gezien is de stad op haar allermooist, daar weten wij alles van. Rederij Nassau is opgezet door 3 vrienden uit Amsterdam die ooit begonnen met het organiseren van boottochtjes op hun sloep. Er kwam steeds meer vraag naar vaartochten en bijzondere manieren om hier invulling aan te geven. Een tweede boot kwam er al vlot, en ook het team breidde uit. Het was tijd de Rederij een naam te geven: Nassau, naar de naam van de kade waar de eerste sloep lag. Inmiddels bestaat onze vloot uit 5 schepen. Sinds 2015 varen onze schepen dagelijks over de Amsterdamse wateren; de ene keer met een groot gezelschap en de andere keer slechts met een handjevol mensen. Wij zorgen altijd voor een vakkundige bemanning, zodat u zich samen met de gasten bezig kan houden met dingen die op dat moment belangrijk voor u zijn.
