Amsterdam: Lovers Night Canal Cruise from Central Station

The painters of the Dutch Golden Age were in love with Amsterdam's picturesque landscapes and canals. Here's your chance to feel equally inspired as you soak up the night time canvas of shimmering water, glittering lights, and amazing architecture from your place on a boat.

This 1-hour evening cruise sails you through Amsterdam's unique UNESCO World Heritage canal district, showcasing a whole new palette of colors by streetlight. Peek into the windows of the quirky houseboats, sail the River IJ and marvel at the beautiful 17th-century buildings that line the banks of the 'grachtengordel' (canal belt).

Learn about the city's humble beginnings, from medieval times right through to the Golden Age with your audio guide. It's an Amster-damn good night out!
