Itinerary
We begin the adventure in the beautiful Jordaan; one of our favourite districts away from the crowds.
Your captain will explain to you the history and heritage of the age old canals of Amsterdam, with its beautiful canal side houses. On the 2 hour cruise you can see the larger main canals with the grand mansions, as well as the river Amstel and the smaller canals with beautiful views such as the Raamgracht. We tailor the route on the weather and the time of day but of course we can also include your wishes and ideas, so don't hesitate to let the captain know!

Tour guide / driver was great!!
Comfortable boat. Snacks and drinks included with booking. Knowledgeable guide and pleasant captain
My wife and I went on the semi-private premium cruise. A 1.5 hr trip through the beautiful Amsterdam canals on the Stan Huygens. A stunning vessel, great captain and crew and the best ever complimentary Sauvignon blanc. Everything about the trip was perfect. Thank you Pure Boats for creating a wonderful holiday memory.
10/10 experience. The size of the group and boat were perfect. The drinks and snacks were great - they had many options to choose from. Oliver was a very kind and knowledgeable guide. Highly recommend this tour :)
Amazing experience! Would recommend to anyone.
Absolutely loved this cruise and the drinks included and cheese board was a real treat. Learnt some history along the way Very professional company and not too many people on board
Rick was a fantastic guide. He shared many facts,videos and video clips regarding the canals and Amsterdam.
Fantastic experience! The boat was beautiful and our guide, Benjamin, was very knowledgeable. There were plenty of drinks and snacks, and we had an amazing time! Would highly recommend.
Enjoyed the beverage and snack options. The other guests were friendly and pleasant. Our captain was knowledgeable of the area and history, was able to answer our questions and give us information we didn’t even know to ask about. Length of ride was nice, though for the price we did anticipate a smaller group. There were about 15 of us.
We opted for the 2 hour, English language tour and it was delightful. Our guide and captain, Benjamin, provided an informative and entertaining running commentary. His knowledge of and obvious pride in his city felt like you were vising with a friend. The boat was very nicely appointed and cleverly fitted out for the storage and serving of a wide array of libations and nibbles. Great way to spend our first afternoon in the city!
