The company name “Friendship,” was named after the first boat that two best friends, who share a passion for boats and water sports, built. Riding down the breathtaking canals of Amsterdam will give you the ultimate Amsterdam experience, but the view is not the only thing you will enjoy. You can also enjoy a gin-tonic and homemade hamburger on board the luxury boat and are encouraged to ask any questions you have about the city.
