Exploring Binnendieze

Binnendieze of Den Bosch, Netherlands is a part of the short river Dieze. Most of the time I did not understand the tour but I am still glad to share the experience. This trip came about when we decided to visit our good friends living in the city.

Tour of Binnendieze is somehow a unique experience, it is touring the city from the canals. Unique but stunning I can say because I admired how the canals in Den Bosch were maintained.

Tip1: Plan  your trip ahead if you are not familiar with the city. The train stations usually have route maps for reference.

Tip2: Binnendieze cruise is popular in Den Bosch, no need for reservation of the tickets. Upon arrival the visitors can just buy the tickets.
Tip3: There are nearby cafes available for some cofee or snacks while waiting for the cruise.
Tip4: Den Bosch is circled by typical Dutch canals and the boat tours of the canals are operated in small boats powered by a small motor that take about 16 people.
Tip5: The tour is in Dutch, sad to say we only understand a little because we were still learning Dutch. I just hope that they will also have English tour for foreign visitors.
Even though we didn't understand the tour, our eyes were already admiring the canals and the views.
The motor boats are designed to fit in the canals and smoothly go around the city.
Tip6: Do not forget to log on the record book at the ticket office to leave your message and appreciation of Binnendieze.
Tip7: Grab the chance to go around the city at the same time. See the city, St. John's Cathedral, the market square and a lot more.
 
 
The cathedral's architecture is truly admirable.



Binnendieze makes Den Bosch more than ordinary.
