Step aboard and discover the true charm of Amsterdam from the water. Glide past iconic sights like the Anne Frank House, the Red Light District, and the Skinny Bridge, while also exploring quieter canals where everyday life unfolds. Watch locals enjoying coffee in the sun, cyclists rushing by, and couples capturing special moments—these authentic scenes make the city unforgettable.
Enjoy a comfortable and intimate cruise with Lovely Cruises’ small, open electric boats. Their size allows access to narrow canals larger boats can’t reach, offering a more unique perspective. The boats are quiet, eco-friendly, and equipped with blankets, umbrellas, and a covered option for bad weather. There’s even a bar on board for a refreshing drink.
Sit back, relax, and let the experienced captain and guide show you Amsterdam at its best.

What To Expect
Anne Frank House
The Anne Frank House is a historic canal-side building where Anne Frank and her family hid during World War II. Now a museum, it preserves the secret annex and tells the powerful story of her life and diary. As we pass by, you’ll see one of Amsterdam’s most important and moving landmarks from the water.
Skinny Bridge
The Skinny Bridge, known locally as the Magere Brug, is a charming wooden drawbridge spanning the Amstel River in Amsterdam. Famous for its elegant design and nightly illumination, it’s one of the city’s most photographed landmarks. As we sail underneath, you’ll get a perfect view of this historic bridge and its classic Dutch architecture from the water.

5.00We had the best tour around the canals of Amsterdam. Rubin and … i can’t remember her name (i’m so sorry)! it was my birthday and was a perfect way to celebrate. just the perfect length of time. Rubin was very knowledgeable about the city and was a fantastic guide!
A wonderful tour of Amsterdam's canals

5.00Excellent. Fortunately, this wonderful canal tour was available the same day after another operator cancelled at the last minute, after first trying to move us to another date/time. We had booked months ago - that operator has zero respect for international travellers who must book well in advance. Thanks for a wonderful experience, and for choosing to run the tour despite your not having a full boat.
A perfect mix of knowledge and humor. Great atmosphere on the boat

5.00Great recommendation! We were on the world's best boat trip yesterday with guide Victor and captain Gino. The trip was a perfect mix of knowledge and humor, and the atmosphere was at the top on the boat. We could have taken another walk. The boat was clean and very comfortable to sit in. Victor was easy to hear and understand. We send our warmest recommendations to Lovely Cruises in this otherwise quite unbeatable jungle of boat trips ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fantastic
