Leemstar’s cruises are stylish, exclusive and informative with local skippers operating in a personal setting. With their extensive knowledge of the city and experience as a skipper, they are always interested to engage with the guests and elaborate on any question you might have about the city. 
 

Discover Amsterdam’s waterways aboard on one of four exclusive vessels. Each boat offers its own unique blend of heritage, comfort, and style — perfect for private cruises, special celebrations, or intimate city tours.
