Enjoy unlimited drinks (beer, wine, soft drinks) while listening to facts about the city's remarkable history and culture - fully in German. On your maritime journey, you will pass 17th-century canal houses, numerous picturesque bridges, and the most important sights. In addition to the captain, a native German city guide will be on board to narrate the canal trip live in a personal and passionate manner, without the use of headphones. Lean back and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, and let the city impress you from the (half-)open boat. The tour will take place in any weather conditions, as the boat can be adapted to the weather. In addition, the boat is equipped with an electric motor, which allows for a quiet and environmentally friendly journey. Sailing through the canals of the city is the Amsterdam way of living. Come and experience this authentic Dutch experience! ## Before you book - Meeting point: Treffpunkt ist auf dem ersten Steg neben… - 16 start times: between 11:00 and 20:30 - Food included: see what is included **Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point ## Key facts - Price: from €25 per person for the Grachtenfahrt ohne Getränke option; other options up to €30 - Duration: 1h - Rating: 4.89/5 from 81 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Amsterdamliebe - Group: Shared tour - Guide languages: German - Start times: 16 start times between 11:00 and 20:30 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-10-22 ## Reviews 4.89 from 81 ratings on Guidekin & Tripadvisor. 98% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 79 of 81. - 5 stars: 75 (93%) - 4 stars: 4 (5%) - 3 stars: 1 (1%) - 2 stars: 1 (1%) - 1 star: 0 (0%) ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Grachtenfahrt ohne Getränke | €25 / person | German | - | | Grachtenfahrt+Getränke | €30 / person | German | umlimitierte Getränke | ## What's included - German-speaking guide (who is a native speaker) - Drinks are included (wine, beer, water and softdrinks) - 60 minute canal boat tour ## Itinerary 1. **The meeting point is on the first jetty next to the small ticket booth marked...** (5m) - The meeting point is on the first jetty next to the small ticket booth marked ‘STROMMA’ at Prins Hendrikkade 35a.
