The canals of Amsterdam from the air

The experience

In the middleof the celebration.

King's Day is the busiest day of the year on the water in Amsterdam: thousands of boats full of revellers dressed in orange cruise the canals, while the quays are packed with crowds and music. Hiring a boat for King's Day means being right in the middle of this unique annual spectacle, instead of watching from the side.

Aboard Club Amstel, your party enjoys an extended day of cruising, from early morning into the afternoon or evening, complete with drinks and catering suited to a long festive day on the water. Given the great interest and the special character of the day, the group size can be extended to 52 people by arrangement.

Because adjusted sailing rules and heavy traffic apply on King's Day, an experienced skipper who knows this specific day is at the helm. Given the high demand, we recommend reserving well ahead of time, preferably months in advance.
