The Tzar boat can fit up to 6 persons for a private dinner indoor and 4 outdoor. It is also often chosen during the light festival if people prefer unobstructed view and picture taking of the artworks and canal houses.

Undine

The classic saloon boat from 1920 is originally from Berlin, Germany. In its previous life, Undine has sailed on the Spree river in Berlin. Once it was transported to Amsterdam, it got renovated into a fully electric private dining boat for the Amsterdam canals. Private Dining Boat Undine has still kept its authentical characteristics.
