Overview

An Amsterdam Canal Cruise is a must-do when visiting the Dutch capital.

From the comfort of a glass-topped boat you will cruise past 17th-century warehouses, churches and the narrow houses for which Amsterdam is so well known, your cruise will also take you to the old harbor; the beating heart of Amsterdam.

Book this amazing canal cruise ticket and see the famous landmarks at their floodlit best! Get the best of both worlds with the best views of the city from the water while gliding through the gorgeous canals.

As you sail leisurely, you will see merchants’ houses and warehouses which date back to the 16th and 17th centuries, the so-called Golden Age. Trade flourished and this is reflected in the elaborately decorated facades. These homes are still for the lucky few. Unique churches typify the canal banks of Amsterdam. Listen to informative audio commentary as you sail past gothic churches, museums, merchant houses and medieval buildings and appreciate the beautiful architecture as you do.
