This 1-hour guided canal cruise in Amsterdam takes place on a fully electric boat designed to navigate narrow canals accessible only to small vessels. The tour begins with a live local guide who provides narration and shares stories about the sights along the route. The boat travels through the Red Light District, known for its narrow alleys and leaning houses, and passes the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam’s oldest building dating from 1306. The cruise then moves past a life-sized replica of a Dutch East India Company ship, illustrating the city’s maritime history. Next, the boat passes the NEMO Science Museum, a ship-shaped building with a rooftop offering city views. The route continues by the Joods Museum area, which includes historic synagogues and monuments. The boat then passes the Hortus Botanicus botanical garden, featuring rare plants dating back to the 17th century. Along the Herengracht canal, the boat passes grand 17th-century mansions and a series of seven aligned arch bridges. The tour also includes views of the Skinny Bridge, a white wooden drawbridge that lights up at night, the leaning canal houses on Damrak, and the remains of Amsterdam’s old city wall in the Old Center.
