Escape the crowds, and Welcome on Board one of our comfortable small boats as you cruise through Amsterdam's narrow historic canals that larger tour boats simply cannot access.
Discover the real Old City Centre, the famous Red Light District and, depending on the route, landmarks such as the Anne Frank House and the picturesque Seven Bridges.
Relax with unlimited cold Heineken beer, wine and soft drinks while our local live guide shares fascinating stories and hidden gems.
Enjoy a relaxed, personal atmosphere aboard one of our luxury open boats during summer. During winter and bad weather, we operate comfortable covered boats with heated seating, ensuring an enjoyable canal cruise in every season.
Small groups, comfortable seating and an onboard toilet make this cruise perfect for couples, families, friends and solo travellers.
We'd love to Welcome You on Board and show you why thousands of guests rate us among Amsterdam's best canal cruises!
