A Fresh New Look for the Lounge

Merlijn's lounge, bar and restaurant have had a full refit. Not that anything was wrong before, but the owners saw room for improvement, and it shows! Think warm tones, lush greenery, a stunning wine display and an interior that invites you to sit back and let the world drift by outside the windows. A lot of attention has been paid to improving the acoustics in the lounge, there's more technology behind it than you might think. And after the first few weeks, it turns out it's a success! See all the photos via the link below and judge for yourself!

Magdeburg to Berlin 'West meets East Germany tour"

Thank you, Coen and Christina! This was our third trip aboard the Merlijn and we had a wonderful time. Your hospitality is excellent—our whole family enjoyed the cruise—and we recommend your bike and barge trips for people who appreciate great biking, comfortable accommodations, and an all-around great experience. Merlijn continues to be magic on the water and we look forward to our next cruise with you.
