Description
It's the most wonderful time of the year!
And we're starting Christmas early this year! November till Janurary we welcome aboard our Christmas vessel for a magical journey through the enchanting canals of Amsterdam.
Join us for a relaxing, small-group canal cruise with a maximum of 24 guests. Whether you're travelling with family, your partner or friends, our open-boat cruise is the perfect way to experience Amsterdam during the most wonderful season of the year.
Your local skipper will bring the city to life with fascinating stories about Amsterdam's history, charming canal houses, hidden details and everyday Dutch life. Expect interesting facts, a sprinkle of humour, delicious Dutch treats, drinks and plenty of Christmas cheer!
This is a cruise for those who love discovering a city, not a party boat. Think cosy company, beautiful surroundings and a little extra festive magic along the way.
Don't speak English? No worries; we have a free audio guide in 9 languages that you can use. Data required and headphones not provided.
Discover Amsterdam's UNESCO-listed canals from the water, away from the crowds of the larger tourist boats. With guests from over 100 nationalities having joined us on board, we love welcoming visitors from all around the world.
Whether it's your first visit or you're returning to our beautiful city, climb aboard, get cosy and let us show you Amsterdam in a truly memorable way. After all, there's no better place to get into the Christmas spirit than on the Amsterdam canals!
- Language: To ensure a shared and interactive group experience, the live commentary is conducted exclusively in English
- Free audioguide in 9 languages; data and a headset are required and not included. This does not replace the captain's tales
- Finding the right boat: Multiple companies depart from our dock. Please look specifically for our crew wearing bright pink shirts. If they aren't wearing pink, it's the wrong boat!
- Facilities: There is no toilet on our authentic open boat. We highly recommend using nearby public facilities before boarding
