Climb aboard a canal boat to experience Amsterdam at its most beautiful - when the sun goes down and the city lights are switched on.
Amsterdam is best viewed from the water and during this 90-minute canal cruise, you'll understand why. It offers you the best views of the historic city center that is illuminated by thousands of twinkling lights.
Discover the city's top highlights, iconic bridges and the 17th-century buildings lining the canals. You'll come across new architecture and bridges, showing a historical city that is rooted in history but continues to develop and change.
While you're enjoying the views that pass you by, you'll listen to an audio guide (available in 20 languages) that tells you everything you need to know about Amsterdam; the stories, legends and historical facts. You can buy drinks and snacks in the ticket office before your boarding!

Had such a lovely time on the canal cruise. Very cosy interior and seated in a booth with table. We saw places and things in Amsterdam that we havenโt before, even though itโs our fourth time this year! Thoroughly enjoyed! Would not recommend bringing babies or small children. Lots of crying and Sometimes couldnโt hear the captain speaking over this which was annoying. The captain was great at narrating and played good music too.
Good Times in the canals!

The music the captain of the boat played. It set a nice vibe for the whole tour! It was very warm and comfortable :)
Great cruise to see Amsterdam via canals

Really good cruise - beautiful view of Amsterdam, and though it was night time you could still see a lot. The driver was very good - friendly and knowledgeable - he made the effort kt point out the highlights referred to on the guide, and added on some extras based on his knowledge. The guide was also great. The cruise was perfectly timed - left and arrived on time.
Not many lights in the canals we toured. Not Not much info
Charles_M, 04-12-2022
Very few if any
Our windows were foggy and not clear after cleansing. We also got little info on the sites and mostly promotions for hotels
I'll take the day tour next time
GregL475, 24-10-2022
If I had a do-over, I'd do the day tour rather than the night. I think you see more of the personality of Amsterdam during the day because of the different architecture of the housing and boat houses along the canal. Day tour would be better for photos and videos. The price was about right for what was delivered.
Wait until the rain stops

Being that it was raining and the windows were fogged up it was difficult to see any of the sights. If the tour director would have pointed out whether the sites he was pointing out were on the left or right sides it would have made it a better trip as it was difficult to see without having to guess where the points of interest were located. Lovely staff, however
An OK boat ride

This was advertised as a Holiday lights cruise. We did some lights but mostly a dark ride. The audio guide was good but there just was not enough commentary and was silent most of the trip.
