Step aboard to experience the Amsterdam Light Festival 2024/2025 from the water. The electric boats have panoramic glass roofs for great views of the light artworks. You can choose to sit at a table inside or head to the open aft deck for photos.

An audio guide in Dutch and English explains the artworks. If you prefer a German guide, a separate German tour is available.

Start your outing at the Christmas stall at Smidtje Canal Café Dialoog. Listen to Christmas music and relax on the canal-side terrace. Purchase a treat or mulled wine from the stall, which you can take on board. If the weather is bad, warm up inside the café, which offers beers, wines, coffee, and tea.

The journey on the heated boats takes you on a memorable cruise through the Light Festival. After the tour, you'll return to Smidtje Canal Café Dialoog in the city center.
