About

Your ticket to an unforgettable SAIL Experience

Every five years, Amsterdam transforms into a spectacular maritime stage, hosting one of the world’s most extraordinary nautical events: SAIL Amsterdam. This year the festival returns with an impressive fleet of Tall Ships, historical vessels, and modern maritime wonders. This is your chance to be part of something truly special, and there’s no better way to experience it than aboard this ultimate Tall Ship Experience Cruise! It's an extra long cruise from a boat with top deck views, and it comes with drinks included, so you can enjoy the spectacle in the sun with a cold drink in hand.

Board our boat and immersive yourself in the festival. From the meeting point just a quick ferry ride from Amsterdam Central Station, you will cruise right into the center of the event. At the heart of SAIL you will be surrounded by ships, sailing right through them, where you can admire them from up close. This is as close as it gets, and all you have to do is sit back and enjoy, and maybe grab a new drink.

Front-row seats to the magic

While the city is probably busy as it gets, and the waterside crowded with people, we offer a trouble free front row seat through the magic of SAIL Amsterdam. Bring your friends, coworkers, your parents, grab a drink at the bar, and admire the massive sailing boats, tall ships, the many little schooners and sloops, and any other type of ship that visits SAIL as official or unofficial guest. Our well-stocked bar has cold drinks for warm days, and our boat has a beautiful top deck with open air views views all around. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ultimate SAIL 2025 tour.

Reserve Your Spot on the Ultimate SAIL Experience
