Discover the many windmills, beautiful Dutch polders, and authentic villages on the Kagerplassen during this 1-hour cruise. Depart from the town of Warmond on the Kagerplassen, not far from Leiden and the famous Keukenhof.Step aboard a comfortable boat and let yourself be carried along the historic windmills that adorn the idyllic Dutch polder landscape. During the experience, you will witness the rich history of the Kagerplassen, surrounded by lush green nature, rippling water, and... many windmills. As the sails of the authentic windmills gracefully turn, it seems as if time stands still. The enchanting atmosphere of the water and the centuries-old mills create a journey back in time.Windmills are important for draining the polders, which can be as low as 5 meters below sea level.
