About this trip

Step off the busy streets and onto the calm waters of Amsterdam for a private canal cruise that’s equal parts relaxing and inspiring. In just 1.5 hours, you’ll experience the city from a fresh and unforgettable perspective—gliding through its world-famous canals aboard a luxurious, silent electric boat that’s all yours.

Your journey begins at a centrally located dock where your experienced skipper welcomes you aboard. Settle into the elegant seating as the boat quietly departs, taking you through a handpicked route of Amsterdam’s most scenic waterways. Along the way, you’ll pass iconic sights such as the Skinny Bridge, the Golden Bend, and the charming 17th-century canal houses that line the water.

Want to explore a particular area or avoid the crowds? Just let your skipper know—your route can be fully customized. Whether you're sipping your favorite drink, sharing a laugh with friends, or simply soaking in the beauty around you, every moment on board is designed for comfort and enjoyment.

What makes this experience truly unique is the combination of intimacy, flexibility, and eco-conscious luxury. Unlike standard canal tours, this 1.5-hour private cruise gives you space to relax without distractions, at your own pace. The boat is 100% electric—quiet, emission-free, and licensed—so you can enjoy the serenity of the canals without the hum of a motor or the fumes of fuel. Bring your own snacks and drinks or request premium catering to make the most of your time on the water.

Book your 1.5-hour private boat tour today and discover Amsterdam from its most enchanting angle—peaceful, personal, and completely unforgettable.
