The Bulldog Boat, Amsterdam

Overview

Hop aboard the Bulldog Boat for a relaxing hour-long cruise around the canals of Amsterdam.

Enjoy two free drinks (either alcoholic or non-alcoholic) as your local guide tells you all there is to know about the sites you sail past on your trip.

This is a smoke-friendly environment to take in the vibes of Amsterdam’s Redlight District, local houseboats and recognizable landmarks like the Skinny Bridge.

From the (half) open deck you’ll get to enjoy the twinkling city lights along the waterfront and the Eastern Dock before you follow the Old City Wall onto the Amstel River and get a glimpse of the Bridge of Monet. From there you’ll sail on to see the Dancing Houses and the Blue Bridge before heading back up the Canal Belt, around the Golden Bend to see the famous Seven Bridges. You’ll see all the canal’s most iconic spots and Amsterdam’s hippy houseboats before ending up back in the Redlight District.

To make the most of your journey, feel free to bring your own food and, if you're looking for a more relaxing experience, smoking cannabis is allowed onboard – but please note that this isn’t provided on the boat and is also not included with your pass.

Straightforward redemption with our pass. Seating/rest spots helped older travelers in our group, even though it was a busy day.

More impressive in person than the photos. Transitions between rooms or stops felt purposeful, — glad we prioritized it.

Entry was quicker than websites suggested. Plenty of time to explore afterward, would recommend budgeting a little buffer after for souvenirs.
