There are a lot of adventures and expeditions that would satisfy the cravings of the thrill seekers and dare devils, but who is taking care of people with a sweet tooth??? Well, look no further as someone in Rotterdam, who probably had one such tooth himself, came up with the idea of a pancake cruise. Who wants a relaxing and romantic cruise in a big ocean liner with all the luxuries imaginable, when you can have a trip where right from the word go, you are provided with all different sorts of pancakes; apple, plain or bacon with an array of delicious toppings to choose from.
Pancake boat runs on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It can be categorized as more of a family experience. As soon as the trip starts, the pancake buffet is open. You can make them and you can eat them, and eat as many as you can keep down. People concerned about their waist line or suffering from sea sickness: beware!! As far as putting too much sugar into the kids is concerned, there is a specially designed ‘holding area’ for them, filled with colourful balls to help burn the excess sugar out before getting off the boat.
The trip starts from Parkhaven, opposite the Euromast, and lasts for about an hour in which you will have a sweet tour of the Amsterdam harbour. On Wednesday afternoon, the boat hosts a children’s party and if you want to treat someone special, consider taking the 3 hour cruise on a Saturday, which is supposed to be a romantic pancake cruise.
Rotterdam is a beautiful city with many classy accommodation options available. One great hotel is the Westin Hotel Rotterdam. The hotel is located in the city centre opposite to the Central train station and very close to the night life. The Rotterdam airport is at a distance of about 6 kilometres.
It is a very modern hotel with a lot of style and class. The rooms are equipped with all the latest amenities and the service is also great. The restaurant offers International cuisine and nice views of the city from the seventh floor. Hotel also has a modern gymnasium to help you stay on top of your game.
