        The best private boat tour through Amsterdam

        Private Amsterdam tour in good and bad weather

        Discover the charm of the Amsterdam canals with our private canal cruise through Amsterdam. Our specially designed boats ensure you can enjoy to the fullest, no matter the weather. In sunny weather, the boat is open, allowing you to take in the surroundings freely. If the weather is poor, the boat is partially covered. We decide this ourselves at the start of the day based on weather conditions and external factors. We also have umbrellas to keep you comfortable and dry.

        Experienced captain included

        Our experienced captains know the canals like the back of their hand. With extensive knowledge of Amsterdam and its history, they make the private boat tour through Amsterdam not only safe but also informative and engaging. Feel free to ask questions during the tour and be inspired by the beautiful surroundings.

        Flexible boarding locations

        The boarding location is right in front of Amsterdam Central Station, near Stationsplein 18. Would you prefer to depart from or disembark at a different location? Contact us, and this can be arranged for an additional fee.
