About Floating Amsterdam
Amsterdam's highest-rated canal cruise. Since 2017.
It started with one boat
Floating Amsterdam started in 2017 with a simple idea: show Amsterdam from the water in a way that is personal, luxurious and sustainable. What began with a single electric boat grew into a fleet of fully electric boats cruising the canals every day.
Today we welcome over 150,000 guests per year. From shared cruises to private charters and tailor-made events. Every experience is designed with the same care and attention as that very first trip.
What drives us
Every boat in our fleet is 100% electric. Every captain is trained to make the experience personal. We invest in the things you notice: the silence on the water, the cold drink in your hand, the story behind the facade you would have walked past.
The people behind the boats
Captains who know the history of every canal house. Hosts who remember your drink order. Event coordinators who turn your idea into an evening on the water. This is a team of locals who love their city and want you to see it the way they do.
What our guests say
★★★★★Great tour and super nice guides. Exciting information and with a lot of funny stories. Would do it again any time.
★★★★★Skipper and narrator had knowledge and humor. Beautiful boat, delicious drinks. It's worth repeating!
★★★★★We had a mega fun trip despite it raining. The boat was great. Rene and Nina made the evening with their fun and stories about the art. Definitely recommended.
★★★★★An incredible canal cruise. The captain was an absolute delight, very friendly, especially toward the children in our group. With the small boat we could enter even the little canals that big tourist boats can't reach. Our guide was funny and knowledgeable.
★★★★★We arrived in Amsterdam and the first step was this fabulous boat. Not only was it educative but also fun. We had a fabulous hour exploring the canals. The cushions and service were flawless and you really can't beat the price.
★★★★★From the moment we stepped on the boat we were so relaxed. The atmosphere was so lovely. They served drinks during the cruise at very good prices, the staff were so friendly and gave us a great insight into Amsterdam. A great way to spend an hour.
See Amsterdam the way it was meant to be seen.
