Experience Amsterdams unique flair on a comfortable small boat that will take you through the beautiful canals. Enjoy unlimited drinks (beer, wine, soft drinks) while listening to facts about the city's remarkable history and culture - fully in German. On your maritime journey, you will pass 17th-century canal houses, numerous picturesque bridges, and the most important sights.
In addition to the captain, a native German city guide will be on board to narrate the canal trip live in a personal and passionate manner, without the use of headphones.
Lean back and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, and let the city impress you from the (half-)open boat. The tour will take place in any weather conditions, as the boat can be adapted to the weather. In addition, the boat is equipped with an electric motor, which allows for a quiet and environmentally friendly journey.
Sailing through the canals of the city is the Amsterdam way of living. Come and experience this authentic Dutch experience!

5.00We did two tours with dear Sanja, a private bike tour with food stops and a canal ride. Sanja was extremely kind and informative. Even with her friendly charm she took my children with her and aroused her interest. Highly recommended, Sanja has accompanied us perfectly.
Absolutely recommendable

5.00The canal cruise was a real highlight! Guide INES has made the tour lively and entertaining with her friendly nature, knowledge and lots of charm. My 11-year-old daughter, who did not feel like this boat trip at first, was thrilled afterwards.
Highly recommended in German with Joey
