An absolutely unmissable experience! My favorite part was discovering Amsterdam's unique architecture from the water, especially at sunset. Passing under historic bridges offers a magical perspective that you can't get on foot. The commentary was very informative, combining historical and cultural anecdotes. It's a peaceful and romantic interlude that allows you to appreciate the charm of the UNESCO-listed canals in complete serenity. I highly recommend it.

I booked our cruise the day before. I went with my parents and it was absolutely amazing. We have already walked by the cute streets by the canals but the experience by cruise was something special. We saw things from different eyes and plus, we get to discover a lil bit more about Amsterdam's history and culture. It was awesome. I am going to recommend it to my friends, without a doubt.

First all all, the weather was great, water is claimed so we are very lucky. Secondly, the captain is funny, we have lot of laughs. Lastly, the audio tour is one of the good one that we have been experienced, because it doesn't talk all the time where leave space for people talk and share through

Step into a –10°C world at Amsterdam's Icebar, then glide along the city’s canals, in under 3 hours with both locations just a 15-minute walk apart.

Skip the lines and enter a bar made entirely of ice, filled with jaw-dropping sculptures and Arctic décor, perfect for photos among icy shipwrecks.

Enjoy three complimentary drinks while learning about Dutch explorer Willem Barentsz and his legendary Arctic voyage.

Then, take a 1-hour cruise through Amsterdam’s UNESCO-listed canals, passing landmarks such as the Anne Frank House and the Jordaan district.

Listen to onboard commentary in English or use the multilingual audio guide to experience the city from a unique perspective.

I really enjoyed the canal cruise. I especially liked that there were audio guides in every language. I loved learning so much about the history of Amsterdam!

The cruise itself was very enjoyable. However, I had booked a ticket for a 10h00 cruise and, when I arrived, I was told it had been cancelled and that I had to go somewhere else to catch a boat at 10h15. Despite having my previously contacted me via WhatsApp & e-mail, I never received any message either before or after the cruise informing me of the time change or apologising for any inconvenience.
