This one-hour luxury canal cruise in Amsterdam takes place on fully electric boats. The tour starts from one of several departure points, with the exact route varying slightly depending on the location. The boat travels through Amsterdam’s main canals - the Herengracht, Prinsengracht, and Keizersgracht - which form the historic canal ring known as the Grachtengordel. Along the way, passengers see notable landmarks including the Anne Frank House on the Prinsengracht, the Westerkerk church near the Jordaan neighborhood, the Royal Theatre Carré by the Amstel river, the Magere Brug (Skinny Bridge), the Munttoren city gate, and views of the Rijksmuseum. A live skipper provides commentary about these sights during the cruise. The boats have an onboard bar where drinks can be purchased. An optional unlimited drinks and bites package is available for adults, allowing guests to enjoy a selection of beverages and snacks throughout the tour. Blankets are provided for cooler weather. In summer, the cruise operates on open-air boats, while in cold or rainy conditions it switches to enclosed, heated saloon boats to maintain comfort. Stewards wearing bright orange shirts assist passengers with boarding, which involves stepping over a fairly large step. The tour is free for infants aged 0 to 2 years. It is recommended to book tickets online in advance to secure a place on the boat. If the weather is poor, the boat will be covered to protect guests from rain and cold. Groups such as bachelor or birthday parties are not allowed on regular tours but can arrange private boat options by contacting the operator directly.

The tour starts and ends in the Jordaan area, a neighborhood named possibly after the French word for garden, with many streets and canals named after trees and flowers.
Amstel River and Canal
The largest canal in Amsterdam, originally a river where fishermen built a dam, giving the city its name Amstel're'dam.
Dutch National Opera
The Dutch opera company is housed in the Stopera building, a modern structure opened in 1986 in Amsterdam.
Magere Brug (Skinny Bridge)
A wooden drawbridge over the Amstel, replaced in 1871 to accommodate more traffic; formerly very narrow for pedestrians.
