What To Expect
The Jordaan
The most common theory on the origin of the name is as a derivation of the French word Jardin, meaning garden: most streets and canals in the Jordaan are named after trees and flowers. Another theory is that the Prinsengracht canal was once nicknamed Jordaan (the Dutch name for the river Jordan) and that the neighborhood beyond the canal came to be called this as well. Our Flagship canal tour will start and end here in the Jordaan.

Herengracht
The three main canals (Herengracht, Prinsengracht, and Keizersgracht), dug in the 17th century during the Dutch Golden Age, form concentric belts around the city, known as the Grachtengordel. Alongside the main canals are 1550 monumental buildings. The 17th-century canal ring area, including the Prinsengracht, Keizersgracht, Herengracht, and Jordaan, were listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010, contributing to Amsterdam's fame as the "Venice of the North".

Magere Brug
One of Amsterdam’s many bridges is the beautiful Magere Brug, known to English speakers at the Skinny Bridge. This wooden drawbridge was once so narrow that it was hard for two pedestrians to pass each other. To cope with increasing traffic on the Amstel, a wider bridge replaced the narrow original in 1871.

Very relaxing boat cruise
I7283PClukep, 08-10-2022
The experience didn’t start off great as we were delayed by 20 mins getting onto the boat, but the captain and hostess made up for the poor start with a friendly atmosphere and a very interesting boat cruise. The hostess Sophie was very approachable and knowledgeable which made the activity even more enjoyable. The captain Kareem was also very friendly and looked after the passengers which made us feel safe. The seats were facing inwards as opposed to the direction you are travelling to, which means you do have to keep looking over your shoulder at the surroundings which did cause unnecessary strain, but seeing the city at night was definitely an experience we would love to do again. We would like to thank Sophie and Kareem again for a great evening trip!
Amazing boat cruise

This was our favorite activity in amsterdam. We were very lucky with the staff and the captain on the boat - they were very friendly and told us a lot of interesting information and stories. It is true that Amsterdam is even more beautiful from the water. I would really recomend you this activity.
Loved it
