Niels

I am Niels , an older, younger kind a guy that has been living in Amsterdam for the last view decades. I am an entrepreneur, working in different projects & branches. Like to be flexible in projects and life. Love to meet visitors & tourists to talk about Amsterdam and make sure they see more than is to be read and promoted in most of the travel guides. Most attractive about most visitors is that they are mostly happy.

    Quintessential Dutch houseboat holiday

    If you want to have a quintessential Dutch experience that provides the option of complete relaxation yet is close enough to walk or bike to major Amsterdam attractions then THIS is the place for you. You'll be the envy of all of your friends (even the Dutch ones) when you tell them that you stayed at this amazing floating home!!! The houseboat sits in a calm canal and is ideally situated near a park, grocery stores, coffee shops and easy access to everything you'd want to do. I stayed with my wife and two kids. Thanks for making this wonderful houseboat holiday come true. 

    All the best from Maryland

    A Rocking Houseboat

    As urban houseboat fanatics, we really enjoyed our time on Veni Vidi Vici. A great neighborhood with everything you need and all kinds of good restaurants as well as easy access to all points beyond on foot, water, or tram. The houseboat is very comfortable and laid back with a homey, relaxed interior and a lovely little garden. Niels is a great, easy-going host with a rocking record collection. A great way to experience authentic houseboat life on the canals of Amsterdam!

    Wonderful daysShow original

    We really enjoyed the days on Niels' houseboat. It is centrally located. We walked into the old town every day, and it's not far to the Anne Frankhaus or the museums. Vis-a-vis is a small but nice park and the Vondelpark is only a few minutes' walk away. The terrace was wonderful and we made full use of it every evening. The only thing is that the owner lives on the houseboat himself and leaves that to us for a few days, we had overlooked that and therefore did not expect it. A little more shelves or free storage space would have been nice, but we were also 4 girls who had luggage with us. All in all it was a nice stay!

    Great house and host!

    A really nice house with spacious living areas. Perfect to sit and watch the boats passing by through the large windows. Niels was a very friendly and helpful host, he gave us a very warm welcome! We had a great time!
