Additional Information & Description
Amsterdam’s historic canal ring sets the scene for this Flagship Luxury Open Boat Cruise. From the water, the city’s waterside landmarks come into view along the canals that define its landscape. The open boat puts the canal-side cityscape at the centre of the visit, with buildings and waterfront sights providing the focus as you sail.
Amsterdam’s architecture from the water
The cruise takes in Amsterdam’s 17th-century charms, including the quaint townhouses that give its waterways their distinctive character. These older buildings are only part of the picture: the route also introduces 21st-century landmarks known by locals. Seeing both during the same journey gives you a view of Amsterdam beyond its historic façades. Architecture is a concrete reason to take this trip, with the canal-side setting bringing different periods of the city into a single waterside outing rather than limiting the visit to one building.
Live commentary in English
A live guide accompanies the cruise and shares interesting facts about Amsterdam and the sights you pass. The commentary is in English, adding context to the buildings and landmarks along the waterways rather than leaving you to identify them yourself. Your skipper knows these canals by heart and navigates the route while the guide talks you through the city. This is a guided boat trip, with the sights and their stories unfolding together as you travel.
An onboard bar
The boat has an onboard bar, so you can purchase a drink during the cruise. Drinks are not included in the ticket price. The bar is an additional feature of the journey, separate from the guided sightseeing; refreshments are available to buy on board rather than forming part of an included drinks package.
