My highlight of memorable moment is definitely Heineken experience tour. I can enjoy heinken historical story as well as cyber graphic movies. To say more detail of cyber graphic movies, Flashing the numerous green dazzle lights make atmosphere more exciting and music like a club one are so groovy. I want to visit Heineken experience once more. I trully recommend it for people who will plan to travel to Amsterdam.

The brewery was great! The people were excited, proud and informative. They made it a fun experience. The beer does taste the best from there. The boat ride - customer service wasn't as good. Not your fault but we were stuck on a boat with a lot of kids who were not very disciplined. The actual ride was nice and informative. Too many tables crammed in and made it not very comfortable.

I liked the bar at the end of the Heineken tour. It's very vibey (almost like a night club) and I enjoyed the beer! In particular, I enjoyed the combo because of the locational convenience of the Heineken experience and the canal boat tour. The canal boat tour is over the road from Heineken so it was very easy to get to!

Your voucher needs to be scanned at the Heineken Experience entrance first. Your canal cruise ticket is an open ticket, meaning no timeslot is pre-allocated. You must redeem your open ticket inside one of the Gray Line Amsterdam/Blue Boat Company ticket offices to be assigned a timeslot for the cruise. Once redeemed, you can board the next available boat at either of the two docks listed below:

    • Dock 1: Opposite Hard Rock Cafe (Stadhouderskade 501). Take tram 1, 2, 5, 11, or 12 and stop at Leidseplein. The dock is a 2-min walk from there.

    • Facilities: lockers, cloakroom, and restroom.

    Amsterdam Canal Cruise

    • Most boats have a roof that closes fully and have central heating on board. So even if it is cold outside, you will be warm inside the boat. The boats mostly sail within the city centre, where the water stays very calm, so they can sail in almost any weather.

    • Please arrive 15 mins before your departure.

    • Please display the voucher on your mobile phone with a valid photo ID to your guide.
