Amsterdam Canal Ring
All cruises are captained by myself as the captain/owner of the Drift Away. We depart from the Singel no.7 and we will return to this location at the end of the cruise. I do not offer a fixed route, depending on your wishes as guests I will tailor the cruise to you specifically. Due to the custom design of the Drift Away we have access to even the narrowest canals of Amsterdam and are able to pass even the lowest of bridges. If you do not have any preferences I will put together a route which will give you an overview of the canal belt, a few of the small less travelled canals, the Amstel river and the eastern maritime area. As a born and raised ¨Amsterdammer¨ I have a wealth of knowledge about Amsterdams history, culture and the Dutch way of life in general. I love sharing with you about my hometown in an easy going manner, with a good sense of humor and the typical Dutch straight forwardness!
The Jordaan
We will pass through the pitoresque district the Jordaan. The name of the Jordaan finds its origin in the French word Jardin, meaning garden. Many of the streets in the district are named after flowers.

Wonderful trip - Captain John was wonderful! We went in the evening and saw the Light Festival. Captain John was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the canals in Amsterdam. There were a total of 3 couples, including us, so the size was really nice. Although it was very cold outside, the inside of the boat was nice and toasty.

A canal tour of Amsterdam is a must do experience. This tour stands out from all the others, a fabulous trip and great value. Bow is a lifelong native and extremely knowledgeable and engaging. His lovingly restored 1911 boat is gorgeous with room to see the sites outside or shelter inside the cabin if weather is bad. Skip the big boat tours and go with Bow.

We had a wonderful time on the Sophie, a beautiful 100 year old saloon boat---very cozy and warm. Jan, our captain for the evening was fabulous! Very pleasant, friendly, and knowledgeable about Amsterdam. He took us off the beaten path for a different perspective. Will definitely go again the next time we are in Amsterdam!

The tour was great! Captain Fokko was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and shared lots of stories. Well, it started to rain about halfway through the captain. Managed to still make the trip fun. Highly recommend this tour.

We would absolutely recommend that you book a tour with Bo's Journey. Our Captain, John was interesting and informative and entertaining. Being on the canal as the sun set and the lights of the city came up was the perfect time. Captain John is a historian so we learned about the architecture and history of the city. The bar was a nice bonus. The weather was cold so we had the option of sitting inside or sitting outside bundled up under warm blankets.

Fantastic canal cruise with informative guide- John. you’re looking for a more intimate experience on a gorgeous restored boat this tour is for you. A full bar and snacks are included. Because of the boat’s small size we were able to move through smaller canals. A unique way to see Amsterdam.

We really enjoyed our cruise on the lovingly restored Sophie — it was a great way to see some of Amsterdam on a rainy afternoon. We didn’t catch our captain’s name but it was his final shift before moving on to pastures new; nonetheless he was friendly, professional and upbeat and he made us feel comfortable straightaway. We also enjoyed the range of drinks on board and left the trip feeling like we’d had a great experience. We’d happily recommend Bow’s Journeys to anyone visiting Amsterdam!

Excellent, small group tour through the canals of beautiful Amsterdam. Our Captain was entertaining, had a lovely spread of drinks, nibblies, and blankets for a warm, inviting experience. Would definitely recommend.
