1.5-hour private guided boat tour with welcome drink

Embark on a private boat tour through the intricate canals of Amsterdam. This experience is exclusively tailored to your group's interests, with the route being entirely flexible. A local skipper will serve as your guide, adding a personal touch that sets this experience apart. The boats used are typically small, allowing access to narrower canals that larger tour vessels cannot navigate, to ensure a more intimate and tranquil journey.

As you glide through the city's waterways, you'll gain insights into Amsterdam's rich history and hear fascinating local tales. Viewing the city from the water offers a refreshing perspective and a chance to unwind. While the itinerary is adaptable, a typical route encompasses both renowned landmarks and hidden treasures. You might traverse the historic canal belt, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site, or delve into the charming Jordaan district's scenic beauty. Iconic sights such as the Anne Frank House, the Skinny Bridge, and the "dancing houses" could be part of your journey. Other potential highlights include passing by the Amstel River, the Red Light District, and the Eastern Docklands.

Throughout the tour, the skipper will impart their knowledge, pointing out key landmarks along the way.
