About this activity
Be sure to take in Amsterdam’s Light Festival if you’re visiting this winter. During the Festival, the historical center of Amsterdam is illuminated by light sculptures, projections, and installations by contemporary national and international artists. The Festival is best viewed from the water, as you will see on this 75-minute Water Colors Cruise. The cruise begins near the Amsterdam central train station and takes you along the city’s iconic canals, past many historic sites and other popular attractions. Light plays a central role in the city as museums and institutions organize light-related activities, introducing visitors to innovations in light art.

Amsterdam Boat Experience offers a canal tour starting the 30th of November and ending the 21st of January which wil take you on a journey past the sculptures in a very intimate setting.
