The City Sightseeing Amsterdam boat will take you on an extended cruise through the city's historic canal cruise district. With stops at some of the best sights in the city, including top attractions and museums. You can hop-off the boat when you want but you can also stay seated for the entire route, which will take around 2 hours. 

That way you can first see all the sights along the route before deciding where to visit. You can do the same for the bus, of course, which will take a little over an hour. When you are ready to hop-off you can visit the top museums and attractions of the city.

Will you take a look at the incredible art on display at the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum? Or explore the Dutch sea faring history at the National Maritime Museum or the Amsterdam Icebar? Or are you more interested in some of the Netherlands' most important export products and visit the Heineken Experience and Our House? We have stops near all these amazing activities in Amsterdam and more!
