Amsterdam History Walking Tour & Canal Cruise

Explore Amsterdam on foot and by canal boat on a shared guided tour, with the walking tour available in English or Spanish. Trace the city’s rise from a muddy village on the Amstel to a powerful trading hub, and hear stories of drug decriminalization, Anne Frank, and the Nazi occupation. View landmarks from outside rather than entering the attractions.
