Boat cruise was pretty awesome. Discovered a lot of history about Amsterdam and it was relaxing. I like that the tour was in several different languages.

My girlfriend and I took this after Anne Frank Museum. It was most interesting tour I have ever taken. The Captain of the boat was informative and funny. I highly recommend it!

"Super Nice experience"

It is a very pleasant boat ride, where you discover places from Amsterdam that I could not find out just by walking around. You hear interesting information about the places you're passing by. Boat was full, but we could see everything. I recommend this tour specially if you are visiting Amsterdam during the winter (nice place to warm up a little). Not expensive, it is worth the ticket price.

Our story - Since 2001

Amsterdam is most beautiful from the water. We would like as many people possible let experience this. Since 2001 we only sail with skippers with real Amsterdam DNA, and we are proud of that. Nothing is more beautiful than discovering the city with a local guide. In the twelve years that we have been operational, we still think this is the most important thing to experience for our guests.
