Your Private cozy Amsterdam Light Festival Boat Cruise
Enjoy Amsterdam Light Festival from the comfortable Historic Salonboat Dauphine, dating back to 1910. This private boat tour in Amsterdam takes you along the festival route, where the Light artworks bring a different perspective to the city's canals after dark. With room for up to 12 guests, Dauphine is reserved entirely for you and your group. No strangers on board, no crowded decks, just good company and time to take in the installations at your own pace.
Complimentary Homemade Glühwein and optional unlimited drink packages
Winter evenings on the canals call for something warm. During your Amsterdam Light Festival cruise, enjoy complimentary homemade glühwein, prepared with care and served on board. It's a small, personal touch that makes an evening on the water feel even more welcoming. Add unlimited drink packages with beer, wine and soft drinks to make this cruise complete. Whether you're celebrating with friends, spending time with family or arranging a seasonal gathering with colleagues, the atmosphere is yours to create.
Onboard Comfort
Built in 1910, Dauphine retains the character of a traditional Amsterdam salon boat while offering the comfort of heating, a fully covered interior and an onboard toilet. Large windows allow you to admire the light installations while staying sheltered from the winter weather. Her quiet electric motor keeps the journey peaceful, leaving plenty of room for conversation.
Unlike larger festival cruises, this private canal cruise in Amsterdam is all about your own group. Your captain handles the navigation while you enjoy the artworks, the warmth of the boat and another glass of homemade glühwein. A considered way to spend a winter evening together on Amsterdam's waterways.
