Best Canal Cruise Amsterdam

Amsterdam Trip Overview

My wife and I started a boatcompany called “Vaartuig Amsterdam”. The tours we provide are as intimate, personal and real as they can get. With a maximum of only 6 guests you are basically on a private boat. If you don’t like gimmick captains/guides with the bad jokes, this is your tour. You’ll see smaller cozy canals the big tourist boats can’t get to. We’ll cover all of the famous canal area’s and get to know its history and facts. All from the perspective of a native 😉 This tour is on our lovely boat called the “Zavi”. Heated and covered on rainy days or with an open sun deck on sunny days. The “Zavi” has a toilet and a bar as well which are included.

Looking forward having you on board!!!
