Captain Dave Amsterdam pioneered early morning cruises in Amsterdam several years ago. These cruises set sail early, when the canals are serene and peaceful, offering the perfect opportunity for a leisurely cruise and stunning photographs.
In contrast to typical tours with predetermined routes and scripted commentary, our cruises are engaging, informative, and enjoyable. Each tour is unique. We begin our journey along the iconic Canal Ring (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and allow the city to lead the way.
Our fleet:
At 8:00 & 10:00, we cruise aboard the Jonckvrouw — an intimate, fully electric Navigating Monument from 1928, once utilized by the Dutch royals. It boasts sliding glass windows, a sunroof, an open aft deck, heating, and a light-use toilet.
At 8:30 & 10:30, we sail on our renowned James Bond boat, a former taxi boat offering full 360° views, ideal for photography. A toilet is available on board.
We are proud recipients of the Best Amsterdam Boat Tour award, holders of the Badge of Excellence, and are listed among the Best Rated Airbnb Experiences.
