Dinner Cruises in Amsterdam
A dinner cruise in Amsterdam, how does that work?
Obviously, a dinner cruise combines sightseeing with dining. You can choose between two different concepts:
1. a standard tour on a shared boat with a more or less fixed menu. That is what this section is about.
2. a tailor-made tour on a private boat with a wide range of pre-ordered menus or even a la carte dining. You will find these at the VIP/luxury canal tour section.
Pros of an Amsterdam Dinner Cruise
- A treat to all senses
- Special atmosphere at night
Cons of an Amsterdam Dinner Cruise
- Relatively expensive
- Less choice than a restaurant
