Gandalf
The barge
Comfort Bronze
Gandalf is a small, cozy riverboat that has been sailing the canals and waterways of Holland and Belgium for several years. Designed to make guests feel at home, it runs largely on green energy thanks to its double roof of solar panels. Because it hardly needs to use a generator to produce electricity, nights aboard are peaceful and quiet.
