Amsterdam Travel Forum

I am going to Amsterdam in two weeks and only have a day and a half to spend ther i was wondering which canal tours are better? and where to board these tours? and what kind of prices i am looking at?

Hello,

You can check this company, they are across Central Station so easy to find...

1 h tour is 11 euros

Does the 1 hr tour start near the Central Station and return you back to the starting point?

The canal boats are doing a roundtrip, so they always return at the starting point.

There are companies across the Central Station (very close) and a little further (10 minutes walking) along the Damrak street and Rokin street.

Contrary to the above, there is another service called Canal bus, where you can hop on/off at several points in the city.

Peter Jan v, do you have to buy a new ticket each time you hop off and on again?
Thanks

I have just checked the site and found the answer to my question, thanks.
