Experience Amsterdam from its historic canals on a private boat tour. Choose between an open boat or a covered boat, and enjoy a cruise tailored to your pace, mood, and interests.
Glide through the canals and see the city as it was meant to be seen — elegant façades, quiet waterways, hidden corners, and the rhythm of daily life unfolding along the water.
Choose Your Boat Style:
Open Boat Experience:
- Perfect for sunny days and warm evenings
- Open-air boat with panoramic views
- Unlimited non-alcoholic drinks included
- Ideal for photography, relaxed conversation, and a summer atmosphere
- Feels informal, fresh, and close to the city
Covered (Closed) Boat Experience:
- Comfortable and elegant, ideal for cooler days or rain
- Stylish covered boat with seating inside
- One welcome drink included per guest
- Calm, cozy atmosphere with protection from the weather
- Perfect for longer cruises, private conversations, or a more refined feel
During the cruise, your private host or guide shares stories about the history of the canals and merchant houses, life on the water, past and present, and how trade, wealth, and urban planning shaped the city.
Pass through parts of the Grachtengordel, as well as quieter canals most large boats cannot reach. The pace is unhurried, with time to enjoy views, take photos, and simply relax.
Because this is a private tour, the route and storytelling can be adapted — from light and scenic to more historical or anecdotal.
