Itinerary
The Amstel flows through the city of Amsterdam and ultimately into the city's canal system and the IJ waterfront. The city of Amsterdam takes its name from a dam ("dam") built on the Amstel in the 13th century—hence "Amstel-dam." Cruise the Amstel while enjoying a 3-course dinner.
One of Amsterdam’s many bridges is the beautiful Magere Brug, known to English speakers at the Skinny Bridge. This wooden drawbridge was once so narrow that it was hard for two pedestrians to pass each other. To cope with increasing traffic on the Amstel, a wider bridge replaced the narrow original in 1871.
Cruise past the iconic Dancing Houses near the Amstel, where the canal homes appear to lean and sway, a quirky result of Amsterdam’s wooden foundations shifting over time

The Canal Dinner Cruise did not show up at the meeting point that was advertised. Unfortunately I can’t rate this trip because I wasn’t picked up.
The boat is the right size without too many tables. The food was prepared by a restaurant owner and picked up during the cruise. The food was excellent and far surpassed our expectations.
The boats are just the right size - not too small not too large for a relaxing experience. The food is prepared by a restaurant and the cruise stops to get the food. In our case, the food was prepared by the owner of the restaurant and was excellent, far surpassing our expectations.
A very nice way to have a relaxing canal cruise with excellent dinner and service. Definitely recommend it.
The canal cruise and dinner were very good. The service and staff were friendly. It would have been nice to have some narration of the sites around us as we cruised. The communication regarding the pick up time and location change left room for much improvement. The email titled 7pm dinner cruise, read 7:30 start time in the details. It was very confusing.
It was amazing thru and thru on time and professional knew about the area enough to help guide us new people to the area
This was a great tour. The boat was lovely, the welcome was warm and the boat departed on time. The food is sourced from a local restaurant and prepared freshly after you order - the boat then briefly stops to pick up first the starter and secondly the main course and pudding. The quality of the food was absolutely excellent, far exceeding my expectations. The drinks on board were good and reasonably priced. It was a great way to spend the evening with the family - great views, great meal and friendly hosts.
This was the highlight of our Amsterdam trip! Great food, crew, and passengers (other than the guest who was on her phone for the entire 3 hours)
The dinner cruise was excellent, the food was superb, the service from Kirsten was first class and the skipper gave enough commentary to point out the highlights but not in an intrusive way. Unfortunately, because we booked late our booking was not transferred from Viator to the company to the boat so we were not on the guest list. There was then a tense wait while it was sorted and we were left standing on the quayside while the other guests were drinking complementary sparkling wine inside, despite there being a vacant table and no other guests had arrived. In the end it was all sorted but we were left disappointed with either Viator or the company (never got a credible explanation) but we were certainly not disappointed with the actual event.
It was such a lovely experience really nice staff and gorgeous restaurant food was served! Highly recommend
