1. Private Canal Boat

2. Shared canal boats

Shared canal boats are the cheapest but also the least convenient way to explore the city from the water. A large canal boat can fit up to 50 tourists and there is no personal tour guide but you will wear headsets or they play an audio tour guide on speakers to explain the city in multiple languages.

Furthermore, the shared canal boats only have standard routes. Due to their bigger size, it is not possible to discover the narrow canals of the city. So if you would like to alter your route – there is no option.

3. Rent a E-boat in Amsterdam and drive yourself

You also have the option to drive a boat yourself. Dont expect too much luxury here and the boats only go up to 6km/h. Furthermore, those boats are not covered so in case of rainfall be prepared and take an umbrella with you.

Conclusion

Renting a boat is a fun way to discover the historic city centre. Depending on your budget, the most comfortable and convenient way is to rent a private boat with your partner or group of friends. The prices start from 150 Eur per hour and can be booked via phone +31 6 45 25 1000 or via the online system.

2. Did you know that Amsterdam only has one river?

But this doesn’t mean that you can not feel like Amsterdam river cruising while floating through the Amstel river. The river is 31 km long – so there is enough time to be spent on the Amstel river! The Amstel is also a few meters deeper than the canals, around 7-8 meters. This makes it possible to have also much bigger houseboats located. You can see spectacular 2 or even 3 floors high water villas like nowhere else in the city!

3. Why to choose a private boat for the river cruise

Cruising with a private boat comes with advantages that should not be neglected:

  1. Coronaproof set up
  2. Not sharing the boat with other strangers
  3. Not being concerned about disturbing other passengers
  4. Choose your own route
  5. Enjoy the attention of your private captain
  6. A well stocked minibar
