Do I need to make a reservation for a boat trip on De Lamme Goedzak?
For a boat trip with De Lamme Goedzak, reservations are required for groups of 10 people or more, and also if you wish to come on board with a bicycle or wheelchair. This way we can guarantee a safe, comfortable boarding.
Are you traveling alone or in a smaller group? You are welcome to reserve, although it is not mandatory. We are happy to help you book your tickets.
Can I reach the boarding point by public transport?
Yes, absolutely. Our landing stage in Bruges is easily accessible by public transport.
Take Bus Line 6 (De Lijn) and get off at one of the three stops nearby.
From there, it is about a 5-minute walk to the quay of De Lamme Goedzak, along the Damse Vaart.
For current timetables, we recommend consulting the De Lijn website.
Please note: in Damme, accessibility by public transport is more limited, so it is best to depart from Bruges if you travel without a car.
How can I pay on board?
On board, you can pay by card or in cash.
Please specify before payment whether seniors (65+) or children under 12 years are traveling, whether it concerns a single or round trip, and whether any deals or discounts apply. Once the bill is prepared, no changes can be made.
If you wish to receive an invoice, please indicate this prior to payment.
Is De Lamme Goedzak accessible for wheelchairs or rollators?
Yes, De Lamme Goedzak is wheelchair accessible.
A ramp is provided so that people with a wheelchair or rollator can easily come on board.
The outer platform is specially designed for wheelchair users and offers space for 6 wheelchairs.
Note: this platform is not fully covered, so in case of rain or wind, shelter is limited.
If you can manage a few steps, the upper and lower decks are also accessible. These parts of the ship are fully sheltered in bad weather.
Can my dog come on board?
Pets stay on shore from now on.
As much as we love welcoming dogs on board, unfortunately we have to change this rule.
This year, there were several incidents where a dog bit one of our staff members.
Therefore, for the safety of our crew and passengers, we have decided that dogs are no longer allowed on board.
We know that many dogs are perfectly calm and well-behaved, but after multiple incidents, we can unfortunately no longer take the risk.
We hope for your understanding.
Can I take my bicycle on De Lamme Goedzak?
Bicycles can only be brought on board with a reservation for a surcharge of €2 per bicycle. Please reserve in time, preferably at least 7 days in advance.
DUE TO HIGH BUSYNESS ON BOARD, NO BICYCLES ARE ALLOWED IN THE MONTH OF AUGUST, AND IN SEPTEMBER ONLY ON MONDAYS AND TUESDAYS
Does De Lamme Goedzak also sail on public holidays?
