Canals by boatCruising the waterways

The 165 canals in Amsterdam are one of the city’s most iconic images. The best way to visit them is by taking a boat trip. Several companies offer this service on boats that either have an open-top or glass roof, enabling visitors to see all the sights from the water. For example, Canal Bus, with its ‘hop on, hop off’ fare, gives you the option to get on and off the boat as often as you like for one or two days.
