Under the new rental option, customers can choose from gondolas, luxury motorboats, taxi boats, open boats and large boats to cruise the Netherlands canals.
Hertz Corp. launched Hertz Rent a Boat in the Netherlands under a partnership with Boot Amsterdam B.V, allowing customers to explore Amsterdam by water on a variety of vessels.
