This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after

Overview
Don’t miss the annual canal boat tour event. During the Amsterdam Festival of Lights (from November 26 to January 17, 2027), the city is illuminated by international light artists, transforming the historic center into an open‑air light exhibition —best experienced from the water.
Join us for an evening cruise and enjoy front‑row views as Amsterdam’s canals, bridges, and buildings glow with light art.
The Festival of Lights is one of the Top 10 winter festivals in Europe
— The Guardian
We sail on two exceptional boats. The historic Jonckvrouw (1928), once used by presidents, mayors, and the Dutch royal family, offers a warm and intimate setting. Selected departures also take place on the iconic James Bond boat with wide views over the water.
Both boats are fully electric and heated, with sliding windows, a sunroof, an open aft deck, and a light‑use toilet on board.
Book direct for the best experience and come join us on the water.
