Step aboard as the boat eases away from a narrow quay and the canals take over: buildings lean in to watch, bicycles jostle the sidewalks, and the water gleams with reflected gables. The vessel hums gently, Prosecco flows, and for an hour the city’s rhythm slows to the lapping of water against hull.

History
Amsterdam’s canal belt was constructed in concentric rings during the 17th century expansion; its layout supported trade, defense, and urban planning for a booming mercantile city.
Conservation
Canal operators are increasingly using electric or low‑emission boats to reduce noise and water pollution; avoid littering and use recycling bins when back on shore.
