About this tour, from the operator
The difference between Amsterdam during daytime and Amsterdam during nighttime is literally a difference between night and day. In the evening, as soon as the sun sets, all lights will go on on the bridges and buildings. Amsterdam will transform into one of the most romantic cities in the world. Maybe even more romantic than Paris??
Open boats from April 1st only till November 1st.
English not your first language; we also have a free audioguide in 9 languages available!
We often have the beautiful setting of sunset and magical golden hour, the best moment for pictures.
In our open boats you will have the best view of the city possible. And with our quiet electric engines, you can indulge in all the sights, sounds, and smells of the city. Add one of our lovely drinks and typical Dutch bites with that. And you have a perfect night on the canals.

From April 1st till November 1st only open boten!
we will always try to give the best tour possible (5*). But in rare occasion things don't go as you and me would like. Please let me know asap. Either direct or send me an email of text. I will contact you.
The tour is a historical canal cruise, it is not a booze cruise. So if you are looking for a bachelor party boat or any other booze cruise. Just contact me. And I can arrange that for you on a private boat.
If it rains, it could be possible that we use a covered boat.
In case of bad weather, reschedulling or cancellation is always possible.
The boat is an open boat without a toilet.
Due a lot of traffic at the dock, we can't wait more than 5 minutes. Please make sure you are at the dock 10 minutes before departure.
Be aware, on the water it can be colder than in the street. Make sure you have a coat with you.
A fairly big step needs to be taken to get in the boat. Ofcourse we will assist you.
Good to know
