Amsterdam Light Festival: Canal Cruise from A'DAM Tower
About this experience
Set sail from Amsterdam-North in a brand-new, 100% electric canal boat, and cruise from the IJ canal towards the glittering Amstel river. On the way, pass the NEMO Science Museum and the fully restored Maritime Museum, passing the famous Skinny Bridge and Artis zoo.
Along the way, you'll see 20 beautiful works of light art, in and around the canals of Amsterdam. Your local skipper will give you commentary about the city of Amsterdam and the most impressive artworks.
The best way to enjoy these artworks of light is from the water. At almost six km long, the Amsterdam Light Festival route has been mapped out to let you see all the works of art along the canals and on the quay.
The departure point is next to the A'DAM Tower, Overhoeksplein. Take the quick free ferry behind Amsterdam Central Station (direction Buiksloterweg), which departs every four minutes.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
