Light Festival Boat Tour max. 10 Guests incl. Gluwhein/Snacks
Description
During the short days and long dark nights in Winter, Amsterdam becomes a place of Magic and Wonder. About 20 Light Art Works will be shown in and around the city’s Canals. Imagine yourself: A warm glass of gluhwein in your hands, the sound of water lapping softly against the sides of the boat as we drift beneath Amsterdam’s iconic bridges, Magical Artworks and past its magnificent 17th-century canal houses. On board this amazingly comfortable and quiet electric boat, you’ll have, mulled wine, a panoramic view of the city, and a front-row seat to these wonderful art exhibitions. Especially, as onboard you can go up close and even through these pieces! We have been closely involved with this festival. We’ll discuss the artist’s inspiration, what moves them, and what they want to express through their work. We’ll share ideas, insights, and opinions and hopefully, we’ll all leave more inspired, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about art and what it can offer us.

Great experience!! Beautiful boat, comfy and ‘gezellige’ ambiance, delicious drinks and snacks The shipper is a true host and shared inspiring stories about Amsterdam and the art pieces of the Light Festival Definitely recommend this!
Thank you for this 5 star review. It was a pleasure to have you on board an showing you and telling you more about the sculptures at the Amsterdam Light Festival
At the end of December I made a cruise along the artworks of the Amsterdam Light Festival. What a snug and cozy place to be in such a beautiful little saloon boat. You can see everything much better and we could also get very close to the Amsterdam replica, for example. This is not possible with the regular tour drills. And of course there were also super well-groomed snacks and drinks. Thanks to skipper Rocco for the knowledgeable and cheerful explanation during the trip. If you get the chance: DO IT!! Paul Pelsser
Bedankt voor deze 5 sterren review. Het was geweldig om je het Amsterdam Light Festival van dichtbij te kunnen laten zien en beleven.
We really enjoyed our boat tour - Cody was a welcoming host and provided great information about the sculptures, and from the canal we were able to have a unique perspective around a large part of the city. Highly recommend!

This was a great cruise! Captain Cole was amazing and did a fantastic job explaining the lights and different sites we saw! My mom had a hard time getting into the boat but he was very helpful! The wine and snacks were the perfect addition. We stayed very warm inside with the blankets. I would highly recommend this cruise and Captain Cole!
This was the perfect canal cruise! I looked at a lot of different options for the Light Festival Canal Cruise. I chose this one because it was a small boat. Everyone on the cruise with us was very friendly. Our guide, Cole, was very nice and knowledgeable. I’m glad I chose this canal cruise!
