the van gogh museum is very good, the museum is very well done, a treat. On the other hand, the boat trip is not great. the company, does not fit into the heart of Amsterdam. we bypass the center, we go outside Amsterdam and the port. announced for 90 minutes we did 75 minutes, we covered kilometres, but we didn't see much. rather take the walk in the city center in 1 hour for €13 with another company!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour wirh Beer. We cruised quiet canals while Beer explained both the history of the buildings and canals and also told personal experiences that were very interesting and fun. Beer gave lots of personal attention...he helped us charge our phones, gave us lunch recommendations and directions. Beer's boat is beautiful and because it is electric also quiet. Book this tour--you won't regret it!

All of the services were great ! JASPER the skipper was a truly professional guy who’s first assignment was safety for everyone and then the trip! So long live JASPER the one and only skipper. Excelent music and very cold drinks in a hot sunny day in Amsterdam. See you next time for sure !

Before you dismiss the idea of paying for a guide, in our experience it was worth every penny. Our guide, Mila, was excellent very knowledgeable and passionate about Van Gogh. She took us on a tour of the museum and told us all about the history behind the paintings as well as the family history of Van Gogh. It was worth every penny. At the end of the tour we were free to go back around the museum and revisit the highlights. Thanks Mila it was great to meet you.

Our guide Pia was great with information and her personality kept us entertained the whole time. I enjoyed walking through Zaanse Schans and Edam. But Volendam was really nothing more than a lunch pitstop. Marken was advertised but was told it wasnt going to be part of the tour anymore, so to set expectations, take it out on the itinerary.

I think this experience was really good value for money, the tour guide was really lovely and we learnt new things about Amsterdam! The tour itself was so lovely at night as all the bridges were lit up, considering we went during such a cold time and snow the boat was surprisingly warm and I sat without a jumper for a portion of the ride. The food was also nice, i wished we could have changed our meal type as I liked the sound of the vegetarian meal however the meal was still nice. I thought the dessert being tiramisu would look like tiramisu however it was more like a pudding/cream dessert. Other than this everything was 10/10, the music, the staff and the experience was great!

My visit to Amsterdam was for only two nights. I’m an artist, so the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum were the most important attractions on my list. Due to its popularity, I wasn’t aware I had to purchase Van Gogh tickets in advance online. I was so disappointed. Luckily I found this small group tour and signed up. Our guide, Marjoke was very pleasant and informative. She spoke perfect English and was educated about art history. She took us on a very interesting tour with an educational backstory of the important pieces of art. I left the tour with a broader understanding of the art and Van Gogh himself. My only frustration was some of our participants were late and we had to use precious time waiting for them! Also, the tour didn’t include the special Rembrandt exhibition at the Rijks but luckily we were able to get tickets. That should be clear in the description. Marjoke was an excellent tour guide! I’d recommend this tour.

Best Tours and Excursions in Amsterdam — Alle Travel
Amsterdam is a city that unfolds beautifully from its waterways — gliding beneath centuries-old bridges, past crooked canal houses, and along tree-lined stretches that haven't changed much since the Golden Age. But there's plenty beyond the canals too, from the windmill-dotted countryside to car-free villages reachable on a day trip. On this page you'll find a curated selection of Amsterdam tours and experiences — from canal cruises through the historic centre and boat parties to day trips to the Dutch countryside. Browse what's available, compare options, and book the experiences that fit the kind of trip you have in mind.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Amsterdam canal cruises suitable for children?
Daytime sightseeing cruises are family-friendly, and many operators offer free or discounted tickets for young children. Cheese and stroopwafel cruises tend to be a hit with kids. Evening drink-focused cruises, booze boats, and smoke-friendly experiences are designed for adults. Each excursion page lists age policies, so check before booking if you're travelling with younger ones.
What is the best way to experience Amsterdam's canals?
A canal cruise is the most popular starting point — and for good reason. Floating past the gabled merchant houses, under arched bridges, and along the Golden Bend gives you a perspective no walking route can match. Options range from hour-long sightseeing cruises with audio guides to intimate small-group boats with unlimited drinks and Dutch snacks. For something more personal, private luxury cruises let you set the pace with your own skipper.
Which Amsterdam canal cruise should I choose?
It depends on the experience you're after. A classic panoramic cruise with an audio guide is ideal for first-time visitors who want an overview of the city's landmarks. Cheese and wine cruises add a tasting element. Evening cruises show off Amsterdam's illuminated bridges and canal houses after dark. If you're travelling with friends, a private boat with drinks and a silent disco turns the canals into your own floating venue. Browse the options and match the format to the mood you're looking for.
Are day trips from Amsterdam worth it?
Absolutely — some of the Netherlands' most memorable scenery is less than an hour from the city. Zaanse Schans gives you windmills, traditional clog workshops, and cheese-making demonstrations. Giethoorn — sometimes called the Dutch Venice — is a car-free village best explored by boat. And during tulip season, a trip to the Keukenhof gardens is hard to beat. Full-day excursions with round-trip transport from Amsterdam make these destinations easy to reach without renting a car.
How far in advance should I book Amsterdam excursions?
Popular canal cruises — especially evening sailings with drinks and weekend departures — can fill up quickly, so booking a day or two ahead is a good habit. For day trips to Giethoorn, Zaanse Schans, or Keukenhof, booking several days in advance is recommended as group sizes are often limited. During peak season (April–August), securing your spot early ensures you get your preferred date and time.
What is the cancellation policy?
Most Amsterdam excursions on Alle Travel offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure, with a full refund. This lets you book confidently even if your schedule isn't fully locked in. A small number of special experiences may have different terms — always check the cancellation conditions on the specific booking page.
What should I wear for a canal cruise in Amsterdam?
Most canal boats are covered or partially covered, so you're sheltered from light rain. That said, open boats offer the best views and photo opportunities, so dressing in layers is wise — it can feel cooler on the water, especially during evening cruises. Comfortable shoes are fine for boat excursions, but if you're combining a cruise with a walking tour, choose something suited to cobblestones.
What landmarks will I see on a canal cruise?
Most canal cruises pass Amsterdam's major waterside landmarks — the Anne Frank House, the Skinny Bridge (Magere Brug), the Maritime Museum, the Golden Bend with its grand merchant houses, and rows of characteristic houseboats. Some routes extend toward the Rijksmuseum and the flower market. Commentary — either live or via audio guide — provides the historical context as you float past.
Can I combine a canal cruise with other Amsterdam experiences?
That's a great way to structure your day. A morning walking tour or museum visit pairs naturally with an afternoon canal cruise, and finishing with an evening sailing — perhaps with wine and snacks — rounds things off nicely. Day trip excursions to the countryside return you to the city in time for a late cruise. The flexibility of scheduling makes it easy to layer experiences without overlap.
Are excursions conducted in English?
Yes — the majority of group and private excursions are guided in English. Several canal cruises also offer audio commentary in Dutch, German, French, Spanish, and other languages. A number of operators run dedicated German-language cruises as well. Available languages are listed on each excursion page, so confirm before booking if you need a specific option.
When is the best time of year for Amsterdam tours?
Each season brings something different. Spring (mid-March through May) is tulip season — the Keukenhof gardens are in full bloom and the city feels alive. Summer offers the longest days and warmest evenings, ideal for open-boat cruises and outdoor exploration, though it's also the busiest period. Autumn is quieter with golden light along the canals. Winter has its own appeal — the Amsterdam Light Festival illuminates the waterways from November to January, making evening cruises especially atmospheric.
