Rotterdam ↔ Antwerp
A 7-day wind-powered journey with Fair Ferry
This summer, Fair Ferry launches a unique sailing connection between Rotterdam and Antwerp aboard the historic sailing ship Bonnefooi.
In a world that moves faster every day, more travelers are choosing a different way to explore Europe: slower, more conscious, and more sustainable.
On board, the journey itself becomes the destination.
Instead of rushing from A to B, you spend five days at sea and two days discovering the city of arrival. The ship docks in the city center and serves as your floating hotel throughout the entire trip, even while in port.
Wake up to the sound of water, share meals under sail, swim in open waters, and explore hidden places unreachable by land.
Guests are welcome to actively participate in sailing:
Hoist the sails
Help navigate
Take the helm
Or simply relax and enjoy the rhythm of the sea.
Sustainable travel without compromise
Fair Ferry believes sustainable travel is not about giving something up — it’s about rediscovering the value of the journey itself.
This is slow travel. Local travel. Meaningful travel.
