What to expect
Experience Amsterdam in a whole new light. Sit back and relax on the water as you are swept away by the light art show that the Amsterdam Light Festival, Amsterdam’s annual spectacular light show, has to offer. Admire the collection of around 25 breathtaking works of art as you cruise along the official festival route during this 75-minute boat tour.Every year, Amsterdam lights up with an exhibition during the dark winter months. The city transforms the canals into a unique and beautiful landscape, filled with art that illuminates the city.One of the most enchanting ways to experience the festival is by taking a boat tour past the illuminated artworks. From the water, you’ll enjoy an uninterrupted view of the installations, many of which are positioned both on the quayside and directly above the canals. The route has been carefully designed to showcase the full spectrum of the festival’s artistic expression and offers a peaceful and immersive journey through the heart of Amsterdam.On board, a heated and comfortable boat offers shelter from the winter chill, whilst an audio guide in English and Dutch provides insight into the stories behind each artwork. Although each installation tells its own story, recurring themes such as hope, connection and transformation emerge throughout. With a ticket for a boat tour, the coldest season becomes a celebration of light, warmth and imagination.
