Captain Dave Amsterdam introduced early morning cruising in Amsterdam years ago. We sail early, when the canals are calm and quiet —the best time for relaxed cruising and beautiful photos.
Unlike standard tours with fixed routes and scripted commentary, our cruises are personal, informative, and fun. Every tour is different. We start along the iconic Canal Ring (UNESCO World Heritage) and let the city guide us.
Our boats:
At 8:00 & 10:00, we cruise on the Jonckvrouw —an intimate, fully electric Navigating Monument from 1928, once used by the Dutch royals. She features sliding glass windows, a sunroof, an open aft deck, heating, and a light‑use toilet.
At 8:30 & 10:30, we sail on our iconic James Bond boat, a former taxi boat with full 360° views, perfect for photography. Toilet on board.

A very chilled way to spend a Sunday morning. Very informative and used Jens' recommendations to find some great alternative places to visit for the rest of the day

We booked the 'Early Morning cruise - Canals all to ourselves ' and had a 10/10 experience. It was a wonderful way to start the day and Dave was a fantastic guide - clearly knowledgeable about the canals and city and very hospitable to the guests on board. Clear communication about the time and meeting location. Will recommend this to anyone visiting Amsterdam and will book another cruise with Captain Dave next time we're here.

Awesome! I would recommend that , you should take this tour preferably in your first day of your visit to Amsterdam. It will help you in enjoying his suggestions. Charges are for his lucid continuous commentary that he offers , movement of the Cruise is incidental! Time given is adequate.

Great enjoyed the Captain's stories. Very relaxing cruise and not comparable to the larger mass tourism boats. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful time on the cruise. The boat was beautiful, clean with snacks and drinks offered. You can’t see Amsterdam in her full beauty if you are not touring in a boat on the canal. Wish this had been 3 hours and not just 1.5.

Great to wander the canals based on weather and interests of guests…not a pre planned and recorded tour. Captain Jan “Not Dave” was entertaining and interesting. Would definitely do this again!
