‘We had the opportunity and privilege of joining John and Ienka, on board Absoluut where we navigated the canals, locks and rivers of The Netherlands.  John and Ienka are superb hosts and know their business well.  A most memorable journey for us and very-highly recommended.  We have already booked Absoluut II for our next trip with the Bakers.'

‘What a trip, what a wonderful time, barging through France with John and Ienka. Fantastic, I would call the trips. Yes (all) trips, three years in a row. Food great, company great, accommodations perfect. Side trips superb. Will travel with John and Ienka anytime. Book now - it is an experience you will never forget.’

‘The night before we left Amsterdam to return to the U.S. I asked Carol if she had any other things she wanted to do or see.  She told me there was nothing else that she wanted to see or do as she had just had the best experience in her life with meeting you, the crew, the yacht and the wonderful experience of the cruise.  (For some reason, meeting and marrying me, etc. never even ranked)
We can't thank you enough for the wonderful experience...The crew gave us outstanding food prepared with a special touch, and service second to none.  We just can't express in words how wonderful each and every one of you made us feel.'
