1.Amsterdam Jazz Canal Cruise with live music

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 832 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $29Our pick

Amsterdam jazz on the canals with live music, a small-group boat from Central Station, about 1 hour, mobile ticket, weather matters.

“Firstly a bit confusing trying to find the correct operator but once we did it was brilliant. Really enjoyable and relaxing seeing Amsterdam by the river and it was the perfect way to finish up our time in the city. The guides were kind and friendly however the free drink seemed to cause a bit of issue ( unsure if they were unaware they should be providing it as per booking ) but they honoured it and were polite about it. Worth a go!”
