Description

Experience Amsterdam in a way most visitors never do during this unique harbour cruise through one of Europe’s largest and most dynamic ports. Step aboard a comfortable, 100% electric boat and leave the busy city center behind as you sail into the hidden world of the Port of Amsterdam.

During this 2.5-hour cruise, discover a powerful and fascinating side of the city that is normally only visible to professional shipping and port workers. Cruise past impressive sea vessels, large terminals, modern transshipment companies, logistics centers, energy facilities, industrial installations, and innovative businesses that keep Amsterdam connected to the world.

Along the way, see the famous Amsterdam cocoa warehouses, where huge quantities of cocoa are stored for the international chocolate industry. Learn how the harbor has shaped Amsterdam’s history and how it continues to play an important role in international trade, logistics, innovation, and sustainability.

Travel in comfort aboard a fully electric and emission-free boat. The vessel is covered and heated, with large windows for excellent views in every season. On sunny days, the partly open roof lets you enjoy the fresh air while taking in the harbor scenery. A toilet is available on board, and drinks can be purchased during the cruise.

With an audio guide in multiple languages and/or live commentary from the skipper, the harbor comes to life with fascinating stories about Amsterdam’s maritime history, international trade, logistics, the energy transition, and the sustainable future of the port.
