The Houseboat Museum is open 10am to 5pm daily throughout the year. However, the museum closes on some national holidays, notably Christmas Day and New Year's Day, King's Day (April 27), and on the first Saturday of August for the annual Canal Parade.

The Houseboat Museum is situated just beyond the Jordaan neighborhood of Amsterdam, on Prinsengracht Canal. It's a 5-minute walk from the Anne Frank House. It's easy to reach by taking lines 2, 12, or 17 of the tram or line 52 of the metro (get off at the Zuid stop).

The Houseboat Museum takes you inside a typical Amsterdam houseboat that was converted from an old barge. Interior features include a living room, a sleeping bunk, a kitchen, and a bathroom. You'll also see model boats, photos, and displays that tell the story of houseboat living in Amsterdam.

You can visit the Houseboat Museum in around 30 minutes, but you can also go through it more quickly if you want only a brief look inside. For the complete experience, borrow an audio guide and take a self-guided tour of the interior.
