Are Dinner Canal Cruises In Amsterdam Worth It?

Yes, my partner and I tried it as a couple when we started dating.

Canal cruise with lunch or dinner

Our lunch or dinner cruise is the perfect way to combine dining and floating. And it is absolutely something different than eating in a restaurant. As our guest, we will completely pamper you.

Meal on a boat

At Floating Amsterdam you can rent a private boat with a captain and host(ess). While our captain leads you through the canals of Amsterdam, you can enjoy a delicious dinner or lunch on the open boat. A burger, pizza or extensive buffet … everything is possible. Our host(ess) will provide you with your lunch or dinner and accompanying drinks.

We can arrange a lunch for every budget. For example, if you just want 2 cheese sandwiches for each guest, you can. But you can also expand the lunch with fruit, luxury fillings, a croquette, raw vegetables, a pasta salad or perhaps a hot meal. Send us your ideas and we can put together a nice package for you.

What are Dutch Pancakes?

Dutch Pancakes (Poffertjes, as we call them in Dutch) are a traditional Dutch treat made of wheat flour and buckwheat flour. Dutch Pancakes are similar to pancakes but smaller and more fluffy. To make it fluffy, yeast is added to the flour. The original way to serve Dutch Pancakes is with icing sugar and a lump of butter. But ofcourse we also offer other options.

Canal cruise review

We tried in February 2024 a one-hour Lovers canal cruise ourselves. We departed from Prins Hendrikkade 25 which is next to Central Station. The staff aboard was friendly and helpful. We received a free audio tour that was available in 19 languages . Although we know a lot about Amsterdam ourselves we still heard many new fun facts. In the map above you can see some of the picture locations we passed by. This is just a handful of some of the great picture locations . You can keep your camera on the table in the boat because you will have a new great picture moment almost every minute. The temperature inside of the boat is pleasant since there are electrical heaters near your seats. The chairs are not too big, and you will sit at the table with 3 chairs on each side. If your body weight is above average we recommend you to take this boat in low hours so you probably have more space. Or to consider a boat that’s a bit more spacious with the seatings.

Good to know that there is a toilet on board, and it would be highly appreciated if you tip the captain and the crew some change. Overall we liked the trip, and the hour flew by.

Enjoy the number one Amsterdam dinner boat 

Amsterdam is home to an incredibly diverse range of communities from across the world (the city is home to people of 176 different nationalities!) so it’s no surprise that this colourful city is home to an equally diverse variety of foods which are served on our amsterdam dinner boat! The city’s various immigrant communities that have come to the Netherlands throughout recent decades have brought their own cuisines with them and we will discuss and explore some of these along the canal cruise. Although the hearty Dutch food that has been enjoyed for centuries continues to make up the staple of meals served at home in many households, this isn’t so when it comes to restaurants and takeaways. Food from previous colonies, in particular, is extremely popular with the Dutch and each community who has made Amsterdam home, has contributed a little of their home cuisine to the city’s vibrant food scene.

Our Amsterdam dinner boat aims to reflect this, giving our guests the opportunity to taste a variety of Dutch favourites, from traditional home-cooked fare to the newer arrivals in the city’s food scene. Each mouthful will be accompanied by a great story about how it ended up being dished up in Dutch kitchens no matter where its roots lie.

Amsterdam canal dinner cruise 

Looking for a culinary experience or Amsterdam with a twist? Whether it’s an Amsterdam canal dinner cruise or a regular canal cruise, the city’s canals will look beautiful as always.

Our Amsterdam dinner cruise is the perfect choice for a culinary experience with a twist. And is much more than just snacks – you’ll get to enjoy an open bar for the whole duration of the trip, allowing you to wash down the delicious food with great wine and local beer! The saying goes that a meal without wine is like a day without sunshine and although we can’t always guarantee that the weather will be perfect, we can certainly take care of the wine and the meals… Our attention to detail and our passion for food (and sailing!) is what makes this Amsterdam canal dinner cruise extra special and an experience to remember.

Read what our guests say about us

Excellent time.

My wife and I had a great time on the tour! The small boat/group was perfect and made the 2 hours much more personal than the larger boats. Our guide was very knowledgable, personable, and gave a great tour of the city. There were a variety of different snacks and drinks on board, which made the 2 hours even more enjoyable. We would recommend Pure Boats to anyone, and we look forward to another tour in the future!f

Highlight of our trip

I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Very classy, professional, and extremely friendly. We opted for snacks and open bar. Everything was on hand and excellent. I would recommend this company to anyone. From the most discerning, all the way to the most laid back. Amazing experience!

River Cruise on Luxurious Radisson Boat

Equipped with ice-breaking technology, these huge fancy yachts are the only river cruisers running all year around. The round trip journey takes two and a half hours and floats past all the big sights like the White House, Novodevichy monastery and the Kremlin. There’s a large open air observation deck up top, while the main body of the ship houses a restaurant with a dance floor for a romantic post dinner dance. For a particularly romantic experience take one of the evening boats and admire the bright lights of the city skyline at night.

The most relaxing and picturesque tour that Moscow can offer: a great way to see the city center and its main attractions. This is a perfect alternative to exploring the city by car, if you only have time to do sightseeing during weekday rush hours.

Your English-speaking guide is eager to share every bit of their knowledge about the surrounding landscape, the architecture and historical details.

We conduct Moscow river tour on Radisson Flotilla boats all year around!  It’s warm inside during winter months, while there’s air conditioning during hot summer days. You may also treat yourself to drinks, lunch or dinner on board (drinks and food are not included in tour price).
