About the venue
De Kleine Karavaan is a restored houseboat permanently moored at the Werfkade, and the name refers to the journey many guests here are celebrating before settling ashore. The saloon is narrow and long, with windows on both sides looking onto the water, offering just enough room for a private nikah among close family.
Skipper and owner Ahmad Zia Wardak will take the boat out for a short turn on the Zwarte Water for photos on request, and usually replies within two days. There is room for 15 to 40 guests, the kitchen works with a caterer of the couple's choosing, and the rear deck serves as outdoor space for the reception in good weather.

Recommendations
4 recommendations“Ahmad Zia took the boat out for a turn on the Zwarte Water for the photos, exactly as he had suggested. With only 25 guests in the narrow saloon it felt very special to marry on the water.”
“We brought our own caterer as the owner had offered, which saved us a lot on costs. The rear deck was perfect in good weather for the welcome drinks before everyone went inside.”
“One small downside, with 40 guests the saloon was truly full, no room to sit elsewhere for a while. But the original wheelhouse as a decorative feature made the whole thing so playful that nobody complained.”
“Ahmad Zia replied within two days and was very flexible about how long we could stay out on the water. For our small nikah with 18 people this was exactly the intimate atmosphere we were looking for.”
