About
Visit the Amsterdam Light Festival from the Amsterdam Museum District
Are you planning to escape the winter chill at Amsterdam's iconic Museum Square? We highly recommend adding a spectacular Amsterdam Light Festival canal cruise to the end of your day of art and culture. At Museum Square you’ll find a quartet of world-renowned museums: the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Stedelijk Museum, and Moco Museum.
As the sun begins to set, the city transforms into a magical spectacle of light. The Amsterdam Light Festival, a yearly winter tradition, illuminates the canals with stunning installations from international artists. This year's theme, Rituals, celebrates the timeless customs and practices that connect us all.
Amsterdam Light Festival canal cruise in 2024-2025
The water is the best place to see the artworks from, as they are placed both in canals and along side them. When you step on board of a LOVERS Canal Cruises boat, you will also be nice and warm as the boats are heated. And the audio guide which will tell you all about the art and the artists is included in the ticket.
This Amsterdam Light Festival canal cruise is longer than others because it does not start directly on the festival route. Instead the tour starts with a short cruise through the city before joining the route. Not to worry though, as you won’t miss any of the artwork on display along the canals.

Excellente balade sur les canaux d’Amsterdam, le capitaine Bouddha est intarissable sur sa ville, belle ambiance avec les lumières spéciales en ce mois de décembre
Wij met drie vrienden. Hadden via internet Amsterdam Light Festival kaartjes gekocht. Hadden we overlijden in de fam. konden we de kaarten omzetten... Dus hele menselijk bedrijf..... Rond vaart was druk maar wel erg leuk en mooi. Ga zitten en genieten. 👍 Neem de tijd. Wij gingen nu 14 dec.ik ben al een ander jaar geweest toen eerder in het jaar dan is het iets beter te doen (minder druk ) Vaar je iets sneller door. Maar zeker aanraden.
The tour is great.. but this year, the light festival was quite disappointing compared to years ago
It was good
Booked tickets for the Amsterdam Light Festival and overall first-ever canal cruise in Amsterdam. It was a very nice experience, captain was really cool and thankfully despite the cold weather, the boat was really warm inside. Also, we had the ability to re-book our tickets very easily through their site just a few hours before our original booking in order to make it on time. The only unfortunate thing was a “heavy traffic” in the canals, which ended up with our cruise taking almost 2 hours-long, but we knew it was not something in agency’s hands. Would recommend it anyway!
My family and I recently went on a canal cruise with Lovers Canal Cruises to experience the Amsterdam Light Festival, and it was an absolute blast! The atmosphere was so chill, and we could see Amsterdam in a new light - from the water and in the darkness. The light artworks were amazing and made me think about the impact of technologies and AI on our everyday lives. My son, usually glued to his phone, was even more engaged than usual. The Amsterdam Light Festival canal cruise is definitely something I would recommend to anyone who wants to see Amsterdam in a whole new way.
A must if you are in Amsterdam. They simply are the best canal cruise operator in the capital. The staff are always very professional, efficient and super helpful and friendly. There are various cruises you can join. Today I took the cruise as part of the Amsterdam Light Festival. It was incredible! 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️
The cruise itself was really nice, it teaches you history, our boat captin was funny and you get insights to Amsterdam's past and present. We went for the Amsterdam light festival... that was very underwhelming (to no fault of the cruise itself) just when you think of a light festival you expect to see more than a few small art fixtures... the streets of Amsterdam had more/better lights than that. I'd def go on lovers again... maybe they have a lunch on the water option or something
Night canal cruise was ran very well, loved the commentary, would have liked more background to what we saw along the way. Light festival was average. Hard to see for those not sitting near window, thus more commentary would have made up for this.
Croisière sympathique qui dure environ 1h pour découvrir le festival des lumières et l’architecture d’Amsterdam. Malheureusement, vu un peu gâché par les gouttes sur les vitres. Il faudrait prévoir un moyen pour nettoyer les vitres après la pluie.
Christmas light festival
Very interesting and informative, Amsterdam by night is very different from Amsterdam by day. The guide was informative. We went on Christmas night and it was warm on the boat
The cruise was cozy and informative. Got to see the light festival as well.
Unbedingt
Wenn sie im Dezember in Amsterdam sein sollten, so müssen sie unbedingt eine Fahrt mit der Thematik Licht Festival machen. Unbedingt.
