Tour Route
Amsterdam Canal Cruise Boat Tour with Dutch pancakes
Amsterdam was established around 1275 and started as a fishermans village with Haring as it’s main catch.
The first canals were built around the 14th century for three purposes, water control, the disposal of sewage and the transportation of goods.
There are three main canals in the city centre, the Herengracht, the Keizersgracht and the Prinsengracht.
These canals are all Unesco World Heritage listed. This tour was especially set up for you to see all three main canals.
The three main canals were handmade and the city counts only one natural body of water, which is the Amstel River. Of course we can not let you miss out on the Amstel River so this tour also takes you down there. A complete tour to make sure you see the most famous sights of the city.
A few examples of the sights we will show you and tell you more about:
- Magere brug (skinny Bridge)
- Anne Frank house
- 7 bruggen (7 bridges)
- Unesco World Heritage list canals
- Houseboats
- Westertoren (Wester Tower)
- Westerkerk (Wester Church)
