Very nice trip with the boat
Nice boat. The owner was very kind. We made a beautiful trip that day.
Amazing experience
The boat was really nice and brand new. Greg is the host and did an great job explaining information about the boat.
Definitely we will come back again and it’s a must to rent here.
Great experience
Barqo is a super convenient way to help customers find the most available boats. The owner of the boat in our experience was helpful and her reactions to our questions were indeed fast. We enjoyed the time we spent on the boat and can comfortably recommend it to anyone who is interested.

We took a tour in the canals of Amsterdam with family and friends. Setting up the details was easy through the chat.
The boat was spacious, clean, with a great cover that allowed everybody to experience the best comfort. The skipper was professional and took us for a great tour. Next time I'll need a boat for a group I'll use this service

The Barqo website is super easy to use
The Barqo website is super easy to use. The boat owner was very quick to respond. We had a great day out, and we will definitely use this website again.
Other boat than booked
For our team event we booked an half-open boat. Without communicating about this an open boat was provided. This was a pity, because some colleagues felt very cold, and if it was communicated they would have put on an extra scarf or something like that. Also blankets would have made a difference. The skipper was nice and telling some fun facts. Luckily we have had fun either way.
Very disappointing
For a birthday I have booked on the website a covered boat for 40 pax and I have heard 48h before that they had no covered boat. I have been proposed an alternative at a different time which arrived 50 min late...
