About Us

After years of sailing with unmatched joy on a variety of boats across the enchanting waters of Amsterdam, I am proud to announce that I now own my first salon boat, ENERGIE, complete with a license; a beautiful historic vessel from 1933 that exudes history and charm. This atmospheric ship is designed for a maximum of 12 people, but for an intimate and cozy experience, 8 to 10 guests are ideal, allowing everyone to enjoy the unique ambiance on board.


The boat is equipped with a stove, so you can comfortably relax in the heated interior even on cooler days. The onboard comfort is further enhanced by large windows that offer breathtaking views of the rippling water and the stunning surroundings of Amsterdam. This makes every sailing trip a unique experience you will never forget. Step aboard the ENERGIE and let yourself be enchanted by the charm of this classic ship as you explore the beauty of the Amsterdam canals with friends or family!


VIP Canal Tours, supported by an enthusiastic team of skippers, offers a unique fleet of classic salon boats that are all ready to provide you and your party with an unforgettable experience. We hope to welcome you on board soon! Until next time, Captain Gus.

Why a VIP cruise through the canals is different from any other cruise 

Most boat tours in Amsterdam focus on transporting large groups of tourists along fixed routes. A VIP cruise is the exact opposite.


There is no set schedule, no cramped seating, and no rushing from one attraction to another. Instead, you enjoy a leisurely private cruise where comfort, privacy, and personal service are paramount.


This is not just sightseeing. This is experiencing Amsterdam in style.


________________________________________ 

Tailored routes through the most beautiful canals 

Because your boat is private, the route can be customized to your preferences. Your captain can take you through the quietest canals, past the most photogenic bridges, and along the historic waterways that make Amsterdam world-famous.


Sail under the illuminated arches of the Magere Brug, pass the impressive canal houses, and glide silently through narrow canals where larger boats simply cannot go.


Every VIP cruise is just a little different – and that’s exactly the point.


________________________________________ 

The best VIP experience at sunset or in the evening 

While a VIP cruise through the canals is beautiful at any time of day, sunset and the evening create a magical atmosphere on the water. 


As the city lights reflect in the canals and the bridges begin to glow, the experience becomes intimate and unforgettable. This is the moment when Amsterdam shows its most elegant side. 


For guests seeking a romantic, stylish, or memorable experience, this is the perfect time to sail. 


________________________________________ 

Ideal for guests who expect more 

A VIP cruise through the canals is perfect for guests accustomed to high standards and looking for something more than the usual tourist activities. 


Whether you are hosting business partners, celebrating a special occasion, or simply want to enjoy a luxurious private boat with your partner or family, this experience effortlessly meets those expectations. 


It is calm, stylish, and personal – just as a VIP experience should be. 


________________________________________ 

See Amsterdam without the crowds 

One of the greatest advantages of a VIP cruise through the canals is the ability to avoid the busy parts of the city. While streets and sidewalks can be crowded, the canals offer space, tranquility, and an unobstructed view. 


From the water, you'll see Amsterdam from a completely different perspective – including sights like the Anne Frank House – without having to wait in line or navigate through crowds. 


________________________________________ 

Frequently asked questions about VIP cruises 

What is the difference between a VIP cruise and a regular cruise?
