Description

Explore the beauty of Amsterdam on a canal cruise and cruise past all the highlights of the city before making a skip-the-line entrance to the ice-cold Xtracold Icebar. 

From the water, enjoy the best views of the canal houses and houseboats. Admire merchant buildings from the 16th and 17th centuries, Amsterdam’s Golden Age, when trade flourished and was reflected in the elaborately decorated façades. Sail through the city’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed canal ring and admire the elegant canal houses from the Dutch Golden Age, spot historic churches like the Westerkerk, and glide under charming bridges including the famous Magere Brug. Sit back and relax on this 1-hour canal cruise that takes you along some of the historic waterways and listen to the GPS audioguide, available in 19 languages, to learn interesting information about iconic landmarks.

After your canal cruise, cool of in the Xtracold Icebar. Step inside and join Willem Barentsz to attempt to find sa shorter route to the Indies via the North Pole. Enjoy a free drink in the heated bar, before heading into the actual icebar. You'll be handed warm clothing, such as a coat and gloves, to survive the -10°C in the bar where you will be surrounded by ice, from the walls to the ice sculptures and the glasses served at the bar. In this frozen world you can enjoy two more free drinks.
