An hour on the canals as the light fades
A small boat of at most 28 passengers, with a local English-speaking skipper rather than a recording, timed for sunset as the bridges light up.
The route covers the Skinny Bridge, the Dancing Houses and the Amstel on an open or partly covered electric boat. Unlimited drinks can be added.
No microphones, to keep the canals quiet; if you sit far from the skipper, ask him to speak up.
