Real proposals aboard Energie

Some moments deserve complete privacy.

A private canal cruise gives a proposal something Amsterdam's busy streets cannot: time, privacy and a setting that keeps moving with you.

Romantic boat tour Amsterdam

Made for couples who want more than a standard canal cruise

Amsterdam is famous for its canals, but a romantic cruise should feel personal. Instead of sharing a sightseeing boat with strangers, you step aboard historic salon boat Energie for a private experience built around your own occasion.

Choose a relaxed daytime cruise, sunset or evening departure, celebrate an anniversary, arrange champagne and flowers, plan a marriage proposal, or turn the boat into your private dining room. The route can include the historic canal belt, the Amstel, the Skinny Bridge and — when navigation and timing allow — the famous Seven Bridges view.

Private from start to finishOne booking, one historic salon boat and your own captain.

Real Amsterdam atmosphereCanal houses, bridges and reflections experienced from the water rather than through a crowded tour.

Personal detailsFlowers, champagne and dinner and proposal planning can be arranged in advance.
