Different boats
The Amsterdam canal cruise price differs per shipping company. This is partly because different types of boats are used. There are open sloops, but also saloon boats, glass-covered boats, boats that run on diesel, electric boats … actually too many to mention. Floating Amsterdam floats through the Amsterdam canals with electric luxurious, open sloops.

Organizing a canal cruise through Amsterdam is not that difficult. Any shipping company with a boat can do that. The difference is in the details. Our boats are completely sanded and lacquered every year, so that they look their best. The covers of our lounge cushions are washed very regularly and our boats receive an extensive cleaning every day. Besides that, everything is tidied up and cleaned between rounds. Our crew is also well trained. They can tell you everything about Amsterdam and are taught to pamper our guests with a friendly, personal approach. All this, so that we can offer you the luxury that comes with a relaxed cruise. And that is reflected in the price.
About costs
What costs are incurred to organize a canal cruise in Amsterdam? As with other companies, there are many hidden costs that you as a guest would not immediately think about. For example, a boat cannot remain moored in the Amsterdam canals, so a berth must be rented at a marina. And if the boat needs maintenance, it should be hoisted out and into the water.
