The hop on hop off bus & boat is a fantastic way to see the city and all it had to offer. I paid for a 48hr ticket so we ( my husband and our friends) could do the boat route one day and the bus another. traveling around the intricate canal network gives you a brilliant perspective of inner Amsterdam. my only slight criticism is the windows don't open fully on the boats so when you try to take a photo, there can be alot of glare & reflections regardless this does not distract from the experiences, which are wholeheartedly recommended.

Whatever city I find myself in, this activity is a must! Let’s you see all the city has to offer and you can hop on and off at any of the stops all day long. Perfect if you need a rest from all the walking that a city break usually involves.

Highlights

  • Discover the best of Amsterdam on an exciting hop-on and hop-off tour
  • Advantage of convenient stops and locations to visit all the city's best sights
  • Browse on the free onboard WiFi
  • Access a GPS audio guide in 19 different languages (Canal Cruise)

Full description

Climb aboard a bus or boat to see the city of Amsterdam on a self-guided tour. Enjoy the freedom to hop on and off either one whenever you see a stop you’d like to visit. Choose ticket options, for one or both bus and boat.
Board at one of the 10 stops for the bus, located throughout the city center. Turn on your audioguide and choose from 16 different languages to learn about the city and its sights as you pass by. Then, hop off at Gassan Diamonds for a complimentary tour of the jewelry store. But there are more stops close to Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and the Heineken Experience.
Next, try the canal boat for a different experience from the water. Enjoy easy access to the canal stops with boarding spots next to the bus stops, so you can easily get from land to water. Glide along the UNESCO world-heritage canal of over 100 KM of waterways. 
Then, take in three of the most famous canals in Amsterdam: Keizersgracht, Prinsengracht, and Herengracht. Pass alongside the houses that border the canals, and learn about the history of these mansions that once belonged to wealthy spice merchants.
