Description

Experience the wonder of Amsterdam during the holiday season with a delightful 90-minute evening cruise through its iconic canals. This festive journey offers the perfect blend of holiday cheer, historical insight, and cozy comfort, making it the ultimate way to explore the city.

As you step aboard the elegantly decorated canal boat, you're enveloped in the festive spirit of the season. The boat, adorned with twinkling lights and holiday decor, promises a warm escape from the winter chill.

Immerse yourself in a modern yet traditional Christmas story with this captivating audio experience, available in six languages: Dutch, English, German, French, Italian, and Spanish. This heartfelt tale blends the timeless magic of the holiday season with a contemporary touch, filling you with emotions of warmth, joy, and nostalgia.

Through touching scenes and uplifting moments, the story brings to life the essence of Christmas—family, love, and cherished traditions—leaving you with a sense of wonder and holiday cheer.

To enhance your cruising experience, you will be offered a glass of Glühwein or a cup of hot chocolate. The Glühwein, a traditional spiced mulled wine, warms you from the inside out, filling you with holiday cheer. For those who prefer a non-alcoholic option, the hot chocolate is rich and creamy, topped with whipped cream for extra indulgence. Along with your beverage, you will be treated to Eberhardt cookies; a very special cookie dedicated to the late Mayor of Amsterdam, Eberhard van der Laan.

Amsterdam's canals, a designated UNESCO World Heritage site, are especially stunning during the holiday season. As the boat glides through the serene waters, you'll pass under charming bridges and alongside historic buildings, each beautifully illuminated by holiday lights. The reflections on the water create a mesmerizing display, adding to the city's enchanting ambiance.
