Luxury Open Boat Cruise Amsterdam

Explore Amsterdam’s Canals Like a Local

Set sail with Lovely Cruises aboard a luxurious open boat and experience the beauty of Amsterdam from the water. During this one-hour canal cruise, glide past some of the city’s most iconic sights, including the Red Light District, Anne Frank House, Jordaan neighbourhood, Westertoren, Amstel River, Skinny Bridge, and many other fascinating landmarks. As you cruise from one highlight to another, watch Amsterdam’s everyday life unfold along the canals and waterways.

Discover Amsterdam’s Charming Canals

There is perhaps no better way to experience Amsterdam than from its famous canals. The gentle movement of the water, boats of every size, historic bicycles resting along bridges, centuries-old canal houses, and people strolling beside the quays create an enchanting and unmistakably Amsterdam atmosphere.

While these scenes are perfect for capturing on camera, they are even more special when experienced firsthand. Lovely Cruises offers an intimate way to discover the city, with smaller boats that can navigate waterways inaccessible to larger traditional canal boats. This allows you to explore Amsterdam’s canals from a more personal and unique perspective.

As your experienced skipper guides you through both the wider and narrower canals, a knowledgeable guide will share fascinating stories, interesting facts, and local insights about the city along the way.

Select Your Preferred Departure Point

Your cruise will begin and end at the same boarding location, with two convenient departure points available.

The main boarding location is situated next to Amsterdam Central Station, making it easily accessible by various forms of public transportation. Its central location provides a convenient starting point for exploring Amsterdam’s famous sights from the water.

Alternatively, you can board from the Jordaan neighbourhood, directly opposite the iconic Anne Frank House and beside the famous Westerkerk. This makes it an ideal option for those visiting these landmarks before continuing their Amsterdam experience aboard Lovely Cruises’ luxurious open boat.

Small, Quiet & Sustainable Boats

With a maximum capacity of 30 passengers, the boat offers a more relaxed and intimate experience compared with larger sightseeing vessels. Lovely Cruises’ boats are fully electric, environmentally friendly, and sustainable, allowing you to enjoy Amsterdam’s waterways in a quieter and more responsible way.

The electric boats operate almost silently, creating a peaceful atmosphere as you cruise through the city. On cooler days, blankets are available to keep you comfortable, while umbrellas are provided when needed. In case of rain, a protective tarp roof can be placed over the boat so you can continue enjoying the cruise in comfort.

There is also a bar on board, where you can enjoy a refreshing drink during your journey. Choose between a cruise ticket with drinks or without drinks. With the drinks-inclusive option, you can enjoy unlimited drinks throughout the cruise. If you select the ticket without drinks, individual beverages can still be purchased on board.
