All-inclusive Canal Cruise - Snacks & Open Bar (Up to 12 People)

Shared Canal Cruise: All-inclusive Canal Cruise with Snacks & Open Bar

This 90-minute Amsterdam canal cruise puts you aboard a vintage saloon boat that actually has a story. Built in the 1960s for a hotel tycoon who used it to entertain VIP guests, the boat has been carefully restored—warm wooden interior, proper seating, and the kind of character you won't find on the big glass-topped tour boats. With a maximum of twelve people on board, it's a small boat tour Amsterdam visitors tend to prefer when they want something more personal than the crowded alternatives.

All-Inclusive Drinks and Dutch Snacks

Your ticket covers an open bar with unlimited beer, wine, and soft drinks, plus traditional Dutch borrel snacks—so you can settle in without worrying about tabs or extras. The skipper and host handle everything while sharing live commentary in English and Dutch, pointing out the details that make these canals interesting: the crooked houses, the gabled facades, the quiet waterways that most visitors miss entirely. If you're after an Amsterdam boat tour with drinks and a bit of substance, this one delivers.

A Quieter Way to See the Canals

The route takes you through the UNESCO-listed canal ring, past landmarks like the Dancing Houses and the Skinny Bridge, and along stretches of the Amstel River. You'll leave from and return to Central Station, which keeps things simple. The boat runs fully electric, so it's quiet enough to actually hear your guide—and each other. This is the kind of canal cruise with drinks Amsterdam locals would suggest: small-scale, unhurried, and genuinely good.
