Amsterdam Light Festival Private Cruise Showcases Illuminated Art on Historic Saloon Boat


A private saloon boat experience during the Amsterdam Light Festival offers guests an exclusive way to explore the city’s winter waterways. Available from December 1st to January 22nd, the tour accommodates up to eight guests and provides a close-up view of illuminated artworks created by international artists along Amsterdam’s canals.


As the boat glides through the city, passengers are surrounded by striking light installations while a knowledgeable captain-guide shares the stories and meanings behind each artwork. The experience is designed to be both visual and educational, offering insight into the artistic concepts that define the festival.


Guests sail aboard a historic 1912 vessel that once transported passengers between East and West Germany and is now recognized as a floating monument in Amsterdam. The heritage boat adds a unique historical dimension to the contemporary art experience, blending past and present on the water.


The intimate setting includes a welcome drink and comfortable seating, making the journey relaxed and personal. Designed for friends, families, or small groups, the cruise offers a memorable and stylish way to experience the Amsterdam Light Festival in a historic and atmospheric setting.

I booked with Amsterdam boat trips as a party of three and had a wonderful experience. We went on a Thursday at 3:30 and had the boat to ourselves. Tallon and Kia took us through the canal and did an incredible job explaining the history surrounding the canals. We went on a beautiful route and we’re very happy with our experience!

Great ride! Both the captain Tallon and his first Mate Kim make for a great story telling, kind and courteous crew. We could not have had a better overview of Amsterdam. Highly recommend doing this trip, first thing on your arrival! Nike, just do it!

The lady was very nice! I’m a local but still learned a lot I didn’t know yet. It was very great that you are allowed to drink and smoke on the boat! Also they have blankets for when you’re cold. Would definitely go again!☺️
