GroupVerified bookingApr 20265/5If you're short on time but really want to visit both attractions, it's totally worth it! I loved it—the Heineken tour is wonderful, and you definitely get to drink; they give you a token at the start of the tour. And the boat tour—need I say more? It's an absolute must-see!TThor H

Pair a panoramic exploration of Amsterdam’s UNESCO-protected waterways with an interactive journey through the heritage of its most famous brewery.
Arrive at the canal cruise dock to scan your mobile ticket and board your glass-roof vessel. For the Heineken Experience, head to the historic brewery in De Pijp, where you will undergo a brief security and ID check at the entrance. Many travellers choose to complete the 75-minute cruise first to orient themselves before heading to the brewery for an afternoon tasting session.

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:
-
