Description

Most canal cruises give you a headset and a recording. This one gives you a glass that never runs dry.

The bar is open. From the moment you step on board, the drinks are on us: cold beer, wine and soft drinks, poured by your host for the full hour. No tokens, no queue at a counter, no counting. Just top up whenever you like and enjoy the view.

You sail from the old centre into the UNESCO canal belt and out onto the wide Amstel River, gliding under seven bridges and past houseboats, hidden courtyards and the tall, leaning canal houses Amsterdam is famous for. Your local host points out the good stuff along the way: the stories behind the facades, the spots locals actually go to, and the best photo moments on the route. Enough to know what you're looking at, never a lecture.

Small boat, good company. You cruise on a sleek, open-air electric boat: quiet, close to the water and nothing like the big glass tour boats. It's a shared cruise with a relaxed crowd and a maximum of 28 guests.

Then keep the evening going. The cruise ends by the Amstel in the heart of the city, about 10 minutes' walk from where you started. Ask your host for their favourite bars and restaurants nearby and roll straight into dinner or drinks. It's the easiest way to kick off a night out, celebrate a birthday or make your first evening in Amsterdam one to remember.

Are you looking for the best things to do in Amsterdam? Together with the major attractions like Keukenhof, Van Gogh Museum, Rijksmuseum, the Heineken Experience, and Anne Frank House, our Amsterdam Booze Cruise is rated as one of the city's top experiences.

Depart from the Red Light District or city center (Amstel River) and cruise through some of the city's main canals. Make your way onto the Amstel River, under seven historic bridges, and discover hidden gems that only a local skipper and host(ess) can point out along the way.

Your cruise ends right in the city center — with drinks available on board for anyone who'd like one, so you can simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the view.
