De Sluizer Boattours

Take a look at their webpage, they got several nice boattours along river Maas and Waal.

From an evening diner cruise to a whole day trip around the land of Maas en Waal or a visit to the beautiful fortified town of Heusden

One of the

If you want to see designs for a new garden (from a small city patio to a large garden) then this is the place to be. Almost 200 garden are on display and you can learn a lot here.

And if you don't have a garden, you can still come here, walk, and enjoy thousands of flowers and plants.

APPELTERN GARDENS

I really liked these little fountains. The stone balls have a hole in the top and water gently flows out of it.

The visitor's center has a restaurant where you can enjoy coffees, cakes, a lunch or dinner. We were invited for a buffet meal, so I can't say anything about prices. It was a reasonable dinner though.

Yummy...

The place is decorated with pictures of fairy tails, and the waitresses are dressed as persons from the fairy tails.

They have special actions and animations for kids... (so don't go here if you're looking for a quiet place).

The pancakes are extra large and delicious.

Favorite Dish: Pancakes of course... and the soup was great as well.

Pancakes are the maindish here! But no ordinary pancakes! Big ones, you can see the pancake as a kind of Dutch pizza.

Favorite Dish: Ofcourse pancakes! I like'em with all kinds of meat and fruits!
