Itinerary

Emperor's Canal (Keizersgracht)

Passing by

We begin the cruise in the Royal Streets, on the Keizersgracht or Emperors Canal next to the Jordaan district, a beautiful unspoilt area of town at the north end of the canal district. You will board the boat and end the cruise outside the original hat factory of Amsterdam, 'Het Rode Hood' (The Red Hat)
Amsterdam Canal Ring

Passing by

We continue the cruise around the Canal Belt or Canal Ring, through the picturesque waterways, passing the stunningly preserved 17th century canal houses, toward the River Amstel
Herengracht

Passing by

Cruising back through the Herengracht or Gentlemans Canal, we see the biggest mansion houses of the city centre. This area is called the Golden Bend, where the most wealthy merchant families resided. Here you will see the fancy ornate facades, which often depict the trade of the merchant famlies.
