Description

Experience the vibrant spirit of Amsterdam with a unique combination of a canal cruise and a visit to the iconic Heineken Experience. This immersive journey lets you explore the city’s rich heritage both from the water and inside one of the Netherlands’ most famous breweries.

Begin your adventure at the former Heineken brewery, where you’ll dive into the history and brewing process of this world-renowned beer. The interactive tour ends with a tasting of two freshly poured Heineken beers, making it an essential stop for beer enthusiasts and curious travelers alike.

After your brewery visit, stroll across the street to the Blue Boat Company dock and step aboard a specially branded Heineken boat. The canal cruise lasts about 45 minutes to an hour, offering you a relaxing way to see Amsterdam’s picturesque canal houses, historic bridges, and modern architecture.

A live guide on board shares captivating stories about Amsterdam and its connection to Heineken, while you enjoy a complimentary drink and salty snack. The flexible schedule allows you to choose whether to cruise before or after your brewery tour, as long as you allow 2.5 hours between activities.

This experience is available in English and Dutch, and is open to guests aged 18 and over. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy Amsterdam from two unique perspectives—check availability now and secure your spot for an unforgettable day!

Salty snacks are also available on board. Please note: Boat availability may be limited. It’s a good idea to check with Blue Boat Company first to see when you can board.
