Amsterdam Light Festival Boat Tour - Small Group
Overview
Available languages
1 hour 30 minutes
Mobile ticket
During the short days and long dark nights in Winter, Amsterdam becomes a place of Magic and Wonder. Over 23 Light Art Works will be shown in and around the city’s Canals.
Imagine yourself: A warm glass of gluhwein in your hands, the sound of water lapping softly against the sides of the boat as we drift beneath Amsterdam’s iconic bridges, Magical Artworks and past its magnificent 17th-century canal houses.
On board this amazingly comfortable and quiet electric boat, you’ll have, mulled wine, a panoramic view of the city, and a front-row seat to these wonderful art exhibitions. Especially, as onboard you can go up close and even through these pieces!
We have been closely involved with this festival. We’ll discuss the artist’s inspiration, what moves them, and what they want to express through their work. We’ll share ideas, insights, and opinions and hopefully, we’ll all leave more inspired, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about art and what it can offer us.

5.00This was a great cruise! Captain Cole was amazing and did a fantastic job explaining the lights and different sites we saw! My mom had a hard time getting into the boat but he was very helpful! The wine and snacks were the perfect addition. We stayed very warm inside with the blankets. I would highly recommend this cruise and Captain Cole!

5.00This was the perfect canal cruise! I looked at a lot of different options for the Light Festival Canal Cruise. I chose this one because it was a small boat. Everyone on the cruise with us was very friendly. Our guide, Cole, was very nice and knowledgeable. I’m glad I chose this canal cruise!
Very attractive down to the last detail!
