The number 1 attraction in Amsterdam and a must do for a first time visitor of our beautiful capital combined with a visit to one of the most famous museums of the Netherlands, Rijksmuseum!
Amsterdam is best viewed from the water. On this 75-minute canal cruise you’ll experience the best of our historical city. It offers you the best views of the 17th-century buildings lining the city canals, and will also show you the 21st-century city that Amsterdam has become. You’ll come across new architecture and bridges, showing a city that is rooted in history but continues to develop and change.
You will be sure to have a great time on board while listening to your personal audio system. This offers audio commentary in a choice of 21 languages (free earphones are supplied).
Did you bring the kids? Great! Let them be a “Fresh water pirate” with the special kids audio commentary including a free goodiebag to enjoy themselves while on board.
Your visit to the Rijksmuseum:
Discover 800 years of Dutch art and history through 8,000 objects in 80 galleries and see world-famous masterpieces by Dutch masters like Vermeer, Rembrandt, Frans Hals and Jan Steen in the Gallery of Honour or admire The Rijksmuseum’s expansive, evocative collection that also includes Delftware, sculptures, archaeological artefacts, clothing, Asian art, prints, items from Dutch maritime history, and many other culturally significant objects, all combining to vividly retell Dutch history within a global context.
