21 reviews of Boat Trip on the Canals

Really good fun

One of the things I really enjoyed during my stay in the Dutch capital was taking a boat trip on the canals. Although I don't usually go in for these kinds of tourist trips, this was included in the Iamsterdam Card, so we decided to do it, and I'm glad that we did. It's a fast, fun way to see many places in Amsterdam. It was great fun, and inside the boat people drank and sang, while passersby waved at us. Really good fun.

The perfect combination of beauty and quiet

Excellent

The boat trip gives you another perspective of Amsterdam, from the bridges to the beautiful view. The price is affordable, and there is various options, from hop on hop off to regular trips and dinners.

It gives you beautiful views of the city.

Experience required in Amsterdam

Experiencia obligada en Ámsterdam

Sin duda, un paseo en barca por los canales Ámsterdam, es una de las experiencias obligadas en esta ciudad. Hay bastantes opciones y tipos de barcas; desde el clásico bote pequeño o al grande; o simplemente alquilar una especie de hidropedal. Nosotros nos decidimos por el típico “City Sightseeing”, que al igual que en todas las ciudades, en Ámsterdam también lo hay pero en barca. Tenía una parte cubierta por una lona y otra al descubierto, justo lo que yo buscaba para poder hacer buenas fotos. Como el día se estaba poniendo muy feo, poca gente se atrevía a montarse en uno de éstos, así que teníamos un bote para nosotros solos (a parte del conductor y un turista más). Partimos desde justo enfrente de la Estación Central y a la primera curva ya estábamos en los pequeños canales del Barrio Rojo. Cómo no, empezó a llover en ese justo momento, pero por lo menos nos podíamos resguardar. Saliendo del Barrio Rojo, nos adentramos en el río Ámstel, que atraviesa toda la ciudad. Casi todos los recorridos, se adentran en el Grachtengordel (Cinturón de Canales), que en forma de tela de araña bordea todo el centro de la ciudad. Estos canales fueron construidos durante el Siglo de Oro ( XVII), cuando ya la ciudad no se contenía dentro de sus antiguas murallas. Declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad, es posiblemente la imagen más icónica de Ámsterdam. Es aquí donde nos encontramos con el “Puente de los 15 Puentes“, donde el Reguliersgraht y Herengracht se cruzan. A un lado se verán 6 puentes de arcos, uno tras otro; y al otro lado otros 6 y al otro 2 más. El que falta es en el que uno se posa, aunque en nuestro caso estábamos dentro del canal. Siguiendo por Herengracht, uno sólo puede quedarse fascinado con tanta belleza. Motivos no le han faltado para ser Patrimonio de la Humanidad, con ese estilo arquitectónico tan representativo. Aquí los más adinerados, se construyeron las mejores casas de la ciudad, y poco han cambiado. Saliendo de estos canales, volvemos a llegar a la Estación Central, punto de inicio y fin de un fantástico recorrido. Una pasada y como dije, obligado en cualquier visita a la ciudad de los canales.
Definitely a boat trip through the Amsterdam canals, is one of the must experience in this city. There are enough options and types of boats; from the classic small boat or large; or just rent a kind of pedalo. We decided us for the typical City Sightseeing, that as in all cities, in Amsterdam but also there is by boat. Tena partly covered by a tarp and other bare, just what I wanted to make good pictures. As the day was getting very ugly, few people dare to be mounted on one of these, as we owed a boat to ourselves (apart from the driver and a tourist ms). We start from right in front of the Central Estacin and the first corner and we were in the Red Light District pequeos channels. How not, began to rain at the right time, but at least we can protect. Leaving the Red Light District, we enter the mstel river, which crosses the city. Almost all tours, venture into the Canal Loop (Channel belt) which shaped skirts spider web around the city center. These channels were built during the Golden Age (XVII), when the city was not Contain within its ancient walls. World Heritage Site, is possibly the most icnica image of Amsterdam. It is here where we find the Bridge of 15 Bridges, where the Herengracht Reguliersgraht and intersect. On one side 6 arch bridges, one after another Vern; and across other 6 and the other 2ms. The missing is where one sits, although in our case estbamos within the channel. Continuing on Herengracht, one only can remain fascinated by so much beauty. Reasons have not lacked for Heritage, with that architectural style as representative. Here the most wealthy, the best houses in the city were built, and little has changed. Leaving these channels, we again reach the Central Estacin, start and end point of a journey fantstico. Cracking and as I said, must on any visit to the city of canals.

A Amsterdam, les canaux sont un lieu majeur; mais pour vraiment profiter de l'endroit et explorer la ville d'une autre façon, le meilleure moyen est encore de prendre le bateau! De nombreuses compagnies proposent leurs services, à des prix parfois très raisonnables. Découvrez ainsi Amsterdam d'un point de vue nouveau, et explorez la beauté de la ville!

Adapt and live like real Dutch people!

Adattarsi e vivere come dei veri olandesi!

I canali non sono nient’altro che il simbolo per antonomasia dell’Olanda, quindi quando si visita questo Paese, oltre a dover per forza di cose noleggiare una bicicletta e andare in giro con questa, anche solo per un giorno, anche fare il giro dei canali in barca è d’obbligo.
The channels are nothing more than the symbol par excellence of the Netherlands, so when you visit this country, in addition to having to rent a bike and go around with this, even for a day, even go around boat channels are a must. This means to adapt and live like real Dutchmen!

Very good, it's a nice way to go around the city

Muy bueno, es una linda forma de recorrer la ciudad

Excellent
Lo único que no tan bueno es que algunos barquitos despliegan todo el techo y no tienes una vista muy buena. En otros, si bien todo tiene vidrios, la propia estructura de ventanas de la embarcación, hace difícil sacar algunas fotos.
Very good, it"s a nice way to go around the city. The only not so good thing is that some boats deploy the entire roof and you have a very good view. In others, although everything has glass, the boat"s own window structure makes it difficult to take some photos ☹️

Charming town

Ciudad encantadora

Excellent
La Venecia del norte, como se la conoce, una ciudad que me encantó. Además del paseo por los canales tiene otros muchos encantos, sus fachadas estrechas, los coffee shop, el museo de Hanna Frank, el museo de Van Gohg, la casa natal de Rembrandt, el mercado de las Flores, y muchos más. He estado varias veces y no para de sorprenderme
The Venice of the North, as it is known, a city I loved. Besides the tour of the canals has many charms, narrow facades, the coffee shop, Frank Hanna Museum, Van Gogh Museum, the birthplace of Rembrandt, the Flower Market, and many more. I've been several times and never stops surprising me

Recommended with children and bad weather

Recomendable con niños y mal tiempo

Excellent
Decidimos dar paseo en barco cubierto ya que estaba lloviendo. También había cruceros tanto en inglés como en Español. Lo malo es que no se podía ni comer ni beber dentro del q cojimos y los niños sufrieron un poco. por lo demás da una vuelta bastante grande por los canales.
We decided to take a covered boat ride as it was raining. There were also cruises in both English and Spanish. The bad thing is that you could not eat or drink inside the place and the children suffered a little. otherwise it goes around the channels quite a lot. Recommended with children and bad weather.
