Discover Amsterdam from the water without sharing the experience with a crowd. Your historic salon boat is reserved only for your party, with a private captain and a flexible route through the canal belt.
A private way to see the city
The private canal tour is the core Amsterdam Canal Tour experience. It is designed for couples, families, friends and small private groups who value space, attention and time to enjoy the city rather than rushing through a fixed sightseeing script.
From the Amstel, Energie can move into the historic canal belt past elegant canal houses, bridges and quieter waterways. The exact route depends on traffic, conditions and your interests.
