The view from the water of the folklore Volendam cannot be described by words. It does not get any better than this according to us.

As a guest on the ships of the Volendam Marken Express, you will experience the island feeling from the moment you get on board. Enjoy the snacks and drinks in The Captains Bar during the passage, which takes around 30 minutes.

Whether you sit on on the lower or upper deck of our boat, you feel completely free when you sail on the waters of the Markermeer.
