Salonboat Paradis, 2 to 12 persons

From the turn of the last century until the thirties, these so-called “salon boats” were built in Friesland and the western provinces if the Netherlands. They were held in high esteem by their former upperclass owners: Barristers, Doctors and Notaries. For them, Salon Boats were the ideal means of transportation between clients, courts, office and home. In weekends, the ships doubled as an elegant pastime, usually enjoyed in the company of a select few guests. As such, Salon Boats were a symbol of status and wealth.

Through the years, Salon Boats have retained their appeal for those who wish to pass the time on the water in elegant fashion. Adapted to the demands of today, Paradis essentially does what she has done since 1920: provide entertainment on the water in style!
An extensive restaurization project has equipped the Paradis with all the current comforts: Hi-fi, central heating and a fully furbished bar. The roomy aft-deck is covered with a detachable roof. The professional skipper will double as your guide and will gladly share historic details of the city.
