Overview

Is it the first time you come to the beautiful city surrounded by canals of Amsterdam, or have you been once and you fancy a walk, hear details, corners, recommendations that escape sight? Walk from the National Monument in Dam Square through its streets with its traditional architecture, strolling along its canals, getting to know its history and visiting such iconic places as the Begijnhof, the flower market, the dancing houses. Or perhaps you prefer to visit the old town, get to know the OudeKerk, the Nieuwmarkt square where De Waag is located or old access to the city, and get to know the history of Amsterdam in the Jewish quarter a little more. But all this, with much more details, recommendations, and with food. And of course, at the end of the tour you can contact me to give you more tips on places or what you feel like doing to enjoy your stay in this beautiful country.

    Activity name

    City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
