Things to Do in Amsterdam: The Best Outings and Activities

The best outings in Amsterdam start with a good idea. Whether you are organising a company event, planning a team outing, or looking for a group activity, we can help you put together a day to remember.

Team events and group outings

Company outings are about teambuilding and collaboration, but perhaps even more about good drinks, snacks, and plenty of good times. You want to get it right, so everyone has a great day.

Whether it is a group of 5 to 10, a team of 20, or a company outing for 50 or more, we have the ideas and the experience. And we know what else Amsterdam has to offer beyond the boat.

Activities and events

We would love to take your group on a private canal cruise. In our view, it is the best way to discover Amsterdam and to connect with each other. Comfortable lounge seating, a bar in the centre of the boat, and everything you need.

We can plan the route together and combine the cruise with other activities or events in the city. From King's Day to the Amsterdam Light Festival, there are special moments throughout the year.

Top ideas for outings in Amsterdam

The best outings in Amsterdam are, of course, best reached by boat. Here are some of our favourite ideas for groups:

Visit a local brewery

Amsterdam has more than 10 local breweries. Visit Brouwerij 't IJ, Oedipus Brewing, Brouwerij Troost, or Brouwerij de Prael. Many offer tours and tastings. Combine it with a canal cruise for a full day on the water and in the city.

Explore a museum

Amsterdam is home to world-famous museums like the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum, as well as unique niche museums like the Bag Museum, Houseboat Museum, or the Cat Cabinet. Arrive by boat for an entrance you won't forget.

Book a canal cruise

Even the most seasoned Amsterdammer never tires of seeing the city from the water. The tempo slows down, you discover beautiful facades and hidden secrets. With live commentary from a local captain, you always learn something new.
