You step onto a low-slung, covered boat as the canal edges slip by—brick facades, iron bridges, and willow branches that seem to dare you to slow down. The boat hums away from Stadhouderskade, the current nudging the hull past 17th-century merchant houses and modern glass interventions. After the cruise, Honthorststraat’s compact Moco Museum waits with a curated shock of colour: Banksy, Warhol, Lichtenstein and contemporary street-art voices that push at the city’s polite history.
