Mechelen Boats — Dijle river canal tour

A 45-min electric boat trip through Mechelen's less-photographed canals + the Vlietjes.

Why go

Slip below Mechelen's brick quays on a quiet electric boat, with Haverwerf's old façades, garden walls and narrow Vlietjes passing at water level. It is an easy 45-minute way to see the city without turning it into a full-day tour.
