Amsterdam Travel Guides
Amazing Amsterdam
On a mini cruise you get around 5 hours to explore this vibrant capital city and its world-class museums, stunning 17th century architecture and excellent shopping. There really is so much to see and do in this friendly and compact city whether you like art and culture, or something a little more fun. So you could start the day in the Van Gogh Museum and finish off in the House of Bols cocktail experience or the Heineken Experience.
