Pedal boat tour

It may sound smaller than a boat cruise but it is something really nice and interesting to do in Amsterdam. Pedal boats due to their size allow you to explore smaller canals and maneuver in places where bigger boats can’t go. And of course it’s a nice workout along with the opportunity to plan your route by yourself. Grab some snacks and enjoy the view of the sunset on Amstel river. These leg-powered boats are available for 90 minutes and embark from three piers around Amsterdam.
