Sailing for business
Hosting clients and business partners on the boat in Antwerp
75 minutes cruising as a business reception
Receiving clients in a hall is predictable. On board you get 75 minutes on the water, with the city as a backdrop and room for a real conversation. You choose between the existing private aperitif cruise or a tailored reception.
Duration
75 minutes
Group
Up to 12 or up to 50
Departure
Nieuwpoortkaai, MAS
Exclusive
Your own group
Standard or tailored
The standard option is our private aperitif cruise: the entire boat for your group, 75 minutes cruising, drinks per consumption or as a package. That formula is unchanged and can be booked online straight away.
If you want a reception with your own catering, a custom set-up or a specific programme, we work out a tailored proposal. Think of a reception with drinks and bites, a welcome speech or a gift for your guests.
Decoration and set-up
For a reception with your own decoration or set-up we plan time alongside the cruise: 45 minutes of set-up and 30 minutes of dismantling. The cruise itself stays 75 minutes and is not extended.
Larger production requirements are assessed first: not everything fits within that set-up time, and we say so honestly in advance.
What is included
- The entire boat, 75 minutes cruising through the Antwerp city harbour.
- Small boat up to 12 people or large boat up to 50 people.
- Historical commentary, background music or a combination.
- Drinks per consumption or a drinks package.

The cruise lasts 75 minutes. For custom decoration or a different set-up we add 45 minutes of set-up and 30 minutes of dismantling. Execution, availability and the total price are agreed in advance.
