Welcome to the Venice of the North, where cruising around in a private canal boat is more a right than a privilege. Here you and your party will see Amsterdam from yet another angle and take in the sights from the comfort of your very own private canal boat which comes complete with skipper and unlimited drinks.
The fact that Amsterdam is famed for canals just makes this activity a must do on your weekend. Located right in the heart of Amsterdam, you can be as fresh-faced as a daisy in springtime or as hungover as a drunken sailor and you'll still have an excellent time just sitting', chilling', drinking and watching' the world sail slowly by.

Canal cruise was easy to find being only a few minutes from the central train station. Our tour guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Drinks had a great selection

Hen group. Excellent start to our weekend away. Had a good range of all inclusive alcohol & soft drinks. All good quality too. The gentleman that took us on cruise was friendly & would point out anything interesting/relevant. Previous reviews say difficult to find but we didn't have a problem with this. Likewise with toilet there is plenty of places to use facilities before boarding. It was a lovely boat that is well maintained. Soft furnishings to lounge on. It was fab!

The canal cruise was fantastic. The boat was easy to find and the host was really lovely. The canal trip itself was really pretty and the boat was lovely with lots of lovely cushions to relax on. The drinks were flowing and there were plenty of them.

Boat was not at the instructed place after walking around the canal for nearly an hour. The boat arrived .. but not on time. Didn't really see anything as the weather was horrendous

Fantastic cruise on a medium size comfortable boat with a skipper who is full of facts about Amsterdam. The prosecco was plentiful and the dominos pizza was great, one each which was unexpected. Highly recommend.

THE CABAL CRUISE ITSELF WAS AMAZING AND THE BOAT HOST WAS GREAT. IT WOULD BE ALOT BETTER IF LUXUARY SPIRITS WERE INCLUDED IN THE BOOZY ELEMENT AS NOT EVERYONE DRINKS WINE AND BASIC SPIRTS
