This one-hour boat tour on a 100% electric vessel offers a relaxed way to see Amsterdam’s canals while tasting Dutch Gouda cheese and enjoying unlimited beer, wine, and soft drinks. The boat holds up to 12 guests, allowing for a small, personal group with a local guide who shares stories throughout the cruise. The trip begins at Oudezijds Voorburgwal, one of Amsterdam’s oldest canal areas dating back to the 14th century, accessible only by small boats. The route continues along quiet canals once used by monks and merchants, lined with 17th-century houses and bridges that reflect the city’s past. The guide points out the Oude Kerk, built in 1306 as the city’s oldest building, explaining its change from a Catholic church to a Calvinist site within the Red Light District. From the water, guests see Centraal Station, a Neo-Renaissance building designed by Pierre Cuypers, and the NEMO Science Museum with its distinctive green rooftop by Renzo Piano. The boat passes the National Maritime Museum and the replica VOC ship Amsterdam, formerly a naval warehouse storing gunpowder and sails. As the canal opens to the Amstel River, the tour sails past the Herengracht’s “Golden Bend,” home to 17th-century mansions of wealthy merchants. The boat also passes the Seven Bridges viewpoint on Reguliersgracht, the Munttoren near the flower market, and the Magere Brug drawbridge, known locally as the Skinny Bridge. The tour includes a platter of real Dutch Gouda cheese and unlimited drinks, with a skipper and live guide on board. There is no toilet on the boat, and the vessel is not wheelchair accessible.

Quiet historic canals
The boat travels along canals once used by monks and merchants, surrounded by 17th-century houses and bridges that preserve the atmosphere of historic Amsterdam.

Centraal Station
The tour passes Centraal Station, a Neo-Renaissance building designed by Pierre Cuypers. The station once caused controversy for blocking views of the IJ river.
