The Candlelight Boat Tour of Amsterdam
The Candlelight boat tour is an enchanting evening boat tour during which wine, typical Dutch snacks & juices are served. This boat tour of Amsterdam’s canals takes two hours. Departure is from the Rokin at 8 p.m. with our parent company Rederij P. Kooij during the summer season (April to October). From the water, the illuminated canals and bridges provide a fairy-tale atmosphere. With candlelight and background music, the Candlelight boat tour provides the perfect setting for a romantic evening.
During the candlelight boat tour, you will be offered ample servings of wine, minerals and typical Dutch snacks. A multilingual guide will tell you everything about the sights along the way. All our Candlelight boats have a toilet on board. In good weather, we will open the sliding roof. If it’s on the chilly side, we’ll turn up the heating.
