Description
Embark on a cruise takes you through the unique UNESCO World Heritage-listed canal district of Amsterdam. Enjoy the opportunity to take in many of the historic sights of the city center.
With this tour you will go on a one-hour sightseeing boat trip through some of the centre’s famous landmarks, with audio commentary available in 19 different languages.
This canal cruise has four departure points for you to choose between. Your cruise will end wherever it started. The primary location is just outside Amsterdam Central Station, the other three are close to tourist hotspots in the city.
One is near the incredible Anne Frank House, where Anne Frank and her family hid and she wrote her famous diary. Another is on the water near Leidse Square (Leidseplein), where you'll find street performers, bars and restaurants, as well as local theatres and iconic concert venues. And the final location is near the Rijksmuseum, the national museum of the Netherlands.
Admire the elegant merchant houses that date back to the Dutch Golden Age. See stunning gables, beautiful churches, the iconic Magere Brug (Skinny Bridge), and many other top attractions. Each boat tour follows a different route, so not all sights are guaranteed to be seen every time. This way, every cruise offers a unique and surprising experience.

- The duration of the cruise itself it 1 hour, but please note that it takes some time to board the boat, so the total duration of the experience might be up to 90 minutes in peak season
