Go crazy and discover Amsterdam from the water. Many people will immediately think of the famous canal boats, but we are talking about the famous pedal boat. Just like walking and cycling a very sustainable way to explore the city and it's still good for fitness too!

It is wonderfully relaxing to explore the city on the pedal boat. Despite the fact that you sail through the canals of Amsterdam in the middle of the city, it seems much quieter. You don't have people running into you, and you don't have traffic from all sides. However, you have to beware of, for example, canal boats, but the canals are wide enough for this.

Renting a pedal boat is possible at various places in the city. In the center you will find pedal boats in the canals that can accommodate up to 4 people. The 2 people sitting in the front do the heavy work, they have to kick and steer, in the back you can look around you. Because the four of you can get in, it's a popular attraction for families with children. Places where you can rent a pedal boat are for example against the Rijksmuseum or at Leidseplein. The price for an hour of a pedal boat in Amsterdam is about €25, -.

Attractions that are nice to sail along include the Anne Frank House, Rijksmuseum, Foam and of course it is great to experience the city from the water and to see the houses. Take a look at the real old Amsterdam, something for which you do not take the rest from the side.
