Private Group Boat Tour Amsterdam
Stag party, birthday or family reunion: with a private boat and your own skipper you celebrate among yourselves while seeing the finest canals.
Booking via our partner GetYourGuide – usually free cancellation up to 24 h before.
How is it different from a regular canal cruise?
Only your group is on board. You choose start time, duration and stops while the skipper does the driving.
How much does a private boat tour cost?
Small boats up to 12 people start at about €150 per hour; larger saloon boats cost €300 and up.
How early should you book?
For summer weekends at least two to four weeks ahead. On weekdays a few days often suffice.
