About This Tour
Would you like to relax after a busy day of sightseeing? Leave behind the chaos of the overcrowded streets and loud bicycle bells. Instead, step aboard our boat and enjoy the peaceful ambiance of Amsterdam’s canals! This private cruise offers the rare opportunity to sail the canals like a local! That means no giant tourist boats packed with strangers. You’ll have the chance to slow down and take in views of the historic waterways by night as you travel through the UNESCO-listed Canal District and De Wallen. Gliding along the water as the sunset paints Amsterdam orange is simply magical. With our customizable itinerary, you can even select a drop-off point near that cute little pub you’ve been wanting to visit. This is truly an unforgettable experience that you’ll be bragging about for years to come.
