Canal Cruise and Amsterdam's Architecture

Your full-day tour is the perfect, all-inclusive tour of Amsterdam for anyone looking to see the city in a day. Your first stop will be the world-famous Van Gogh Museum, with timed tickets included – not just a thorough collection of Post-Impressionist art but also an architectural masterpiece in the heart of Amsterdam. You will then move on to the evocative Rijksmuseum. Considered one of Europe's most extensive collections, the "State Museum" first opened to the public in 1800 and is home to over one million pieces of work, both from the Netherlands and abroad. From Neolithic artifacts to the Dutch masters, including Van Dyck and Jan Steen- a trip to this stunning museum will not disappoint.
You will go on to explore the beautiful Jordaan District and stop for lunch in the area (price not included) which was once traditionally a rather poor neighborhood, attracting amazing artists and poets, including Rembrandt and the famous 17th-century Dutch writer Joost van den Vondel. Visit the world-famous Flower Market, which has floated on Amsterdam's innermost canal since 1862. See Dam Square, which got its name the same way Amsterdam did: it began life as a dam of the Amstel river nearly 750 years ago. As the city grew so did the dam, until it became large enough for a town square, and it has been at Amsterdam's heart ever since.
Your tour will finish with tickets to board a canal cruise, so you can do one of the most iconic things in Amsterdam: see the city by water. Your cruise is a comprehensive cruise that will take you through the warren of canals that define the great city of Amsterdam, closing your day with the history of Amsterdam and a deeper appreciation of the diverse districts that make up this fantastic city.
