1 Drink Included • Brand New Boat • Local Skipper
This one-hour Amsterdam canal cruise departs from Stationsplein, a short walk from Central Station, and loops through some of the city's most recognisable waterways. You'll pass the National Maritime Museum, glide along the Amstel River, and catch sight of the Skinny Bridge and the famously crooked Dancing Houses. The boat is new, comfortable, and adjusts to the weather — open when the sun's out, covered when it's not.
Groups top out at around 25, which keeps things sociable without feeling packed. Your skipper is local, knows the canals well, and offers commentary that leans more towards genuinely interesting than scripted. One drink is included in your ticket — beer, wine, or soft drink — and there's an option to upgrade to unlimited drinks if you'd rather not count. Snacks aren't provided, but you're welcome to bring your own.
This amsterdam boat tour suits families, couples, and solo visitors equally. Children are welcome, and there's a family ticket discount available for two adults and two children. It's a small canal cruise Amsterdam visitors can slot into a morning or afternoon without much planning — just arrive ten minutes early and step aboard.

“We were looking for a boat travel where we can steer the boat ourselves and through the assistance of Boris we were able to quickly get our hands on a boat for around 2 hours. He also gave us some great instructions and a general direction we can drive through. Was tons of fun, and we can definetly recommend the trip. Thanks a lot !”

“10/10 experience. When we arrived, everything was set up for us. Emily helped us get on the boat and thoroughly explained our route and how to operate the boat. Everything was simple and intuitive. The boat was charming and comfortable. And you really can’t beat getting around Amsterdam this way. We went at sunset and it was a bucket list experience.”
