There is nothing like touring Amsterdam from the canals. This is one attraction I recommend even if you only have a few hours in Amsterdam. The boat depots are located in the center of the city with boats leaving periodically. The Rederij Kooij Company, owned by a Dutch family for generations offers tours of Amsterdam from one of their 6 types of touring boats. Each type of boat is low so they all fit under the many bridges. From the boat visitors learn about the history of Amsterdam, see the many Dutch style houses, the boat homes and many other sites specific to the Dutch lifestyle.
