About This Experience
There's no more romantic way to see Amsterdam than from the water. Board an intimate canal boat as the sun sets, and drift through the UNESCO-listed canal ring illuminated by thousands of lights. Your captain navigates past 17th-century merchant houses, under historic bridges, and alongside houseboats glowing warmly. Wine and Dutch cheese accompany your journey as you cuddle under blankets. The gentle lap of water against the hull, the soft candlelight, the city floating by – pure magic.
Skip If
You get seasick easily (though the canals are very calm)
Perfect For
Couples seeking the quintessential Amsterdam romantic experience
Pro Tip
Book a sunset cruise for the best light. Bring an extra layer – it gets cool on the water
