Your own historic salon boat, captain and Amsterdam route.
Reserve historic salon boat Energie entirely for your own party and discover Amsterdam without sharing the boat with strangers.
Unlike a shared sightseeing cruise, Energie is reserved exclusively for your booking. The 1933 salon boat combines classic Amsterdam character with a covered, heated interior and an experienced private captain. That makes the experience suitable throughout the year and gives you room to talk, celebrate, dine or simply watch the city pass by.
Private means genuinely private
This is not a seat on a shared tour boat. Your booking reserves historic salon boat Energie for your own party, with your captain and time to enjoy Amsterdam at your own pace.
What to expect aboard Energie
From Amstel 51 into historic Amsterdam
Our standard boarding point is Amstel 51, beside H’ART Museum. From there, the exact route is chosen around your cruise length, canal conditions and the experience you booked. Rather than promising a rigid checklist of sights, we aim for the most attractive route available at that moment.
Who is this experience for?
This private experience works especially well for couples, anniversaries, birthdays, honeymoons and guests who prefer a small historic boat to a large commercial cruise. Energie can host up to 10 guests for private cruising; seated dinner is most comfortable for up to 8.
