Description
This Aperol Spritz Cruise blends the relaxed summer atmosphere of Amsterdam with clear open-air views of the UNESCO canal belt. Step aboard a quiet electric boat and enjoy a freshly prepared Aperol Spritz as the city unfolds around you.
The departure point is located just a short walk from Amsterdam Central Station, making the experience easy to reach and simple to fit into any itinerary. Once on board, you’ll find comfortable seating, open views in every direction, and a welcoming local English-speaking skipper ready to share stories and background information about the city.
Over the course of 60 minutes, the cruise highlights some of Amsterdam’s most iconic sights: the elegant Canal Belt, the Skinny Bridge, the colourful Dancing Houses, the Amstel River, and lesser-known corners that offer great photo opportunities. Depending on the weather, the boat sails fully open or partially covered to keep the views clear and the experience comfortable.
Your Aperol Spritz is served cold and vibrant, perfect for the laid-back summer vibe on the water. Guests who prefer a different drink can choose an alternative alcohol-free option, and those selecting the unlimited-drinks package enjoy an even more social atmosphere on board.
Throughout the cruise, the skipper shares local insights, fun anecdotes, and background stories that add context to the sights along the route. The combination of iconic scenery, relaxed ambiance, and a refreshing drink makes this cruise ideal for couples, groups of friends, and anyone looking for a more social way to enjoy the canals.
With stylish electric boats, open views, and consistently positive guest reviews, this Aperol Spritz Cruise offers a refreshing and memorable way to experience Amsterdam from the water.
