Top North Holland Kayaking Tours

Escape the city and explore the scenic, nature-filled waterways surrounding Amsterdam during this small-group canoe tour. Spot birds and other wildlife in picturesque meadows, pass by colorful houses in the historic fishing village of Waterland, and visit the Natura2000 nature reserve only accessible by boat. Canoes seat only two people and life jackets are included. Bring your own drink or snack, as coffee and tea are not provided.

Canoe the canals of Holland’s Waterland region at sunset on this 4-hour trip from Amsterdam. Travel with a guide to this rural area, and paddle past reed beds, meadows and picture-postcard villages. Savor the sound of birdsong and scents of wild flowers, glide through landscapes once painted by Rembrandt, and learn how the flat countryside was reclaimed from the sea. Take a swim if the weather allows, and finish with a picnic dinner overlooking a lake and the area’s wooden windmills. Numbers limited to 10 people for a small-group experience.
