Planning a day on the water with a group of 20 people? It’s good to have options. At Mokumboot, you choose what suits your group best. Go for a private boat tour with your own skipper and catering on board, or join one of our regular boat tours together. Either way, you’ll enjoy a relaxed cruise through the Amsterdam canals. Our electric boats glide quietly through the city, with plenty of attention to comfort, atmosphere and an easy-going experience for everyone on board.
Private boat for 20 people: space, calm and a relaxed group vibe
Choose a private boat and enjoy the space that comes with it. With 20 people on board, everyone sits comfortably, with plenty of room to move around and take in the views. Because our boats can host groups of up to 35 people, your group never feels crowded. Instead, there’s a calm, open atmosphere where you can chat, look around and enjoy Amsterdam from the water at your own pace.
You board at our central location at Stationsplein 28, right next to Amsterdam Central Station. Would you prefer to board somewhere else? That is possible on request and at an additional cost. Whichever boarding location you choose, we will ensure that everything is ready upon arrival. This way, you can board in a relaxed manner and start your cruise without any hassle.
Discover Amsterdam from the water
As you cruise through the canals, Amsterdam slowly unfolds around you. You’ll pass well-known sights like the Magere Brug and the elegant Carré, as well as quieter canals tucked away in the Jordaan. Your skipper knows the city inside out and is happy to shape the route around what your group would like to see. Share your wishes in advance, or simply sit back and enjoy the surprise as the city reveals itself from the water.
Sail at your own pace
Our private boats are available from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., giving you the freedom to plan your cruise exactly when it suits your group. Choose the duration that fits your schedule and mood:
- 2 hours for €425
- 5 hours for €530
- 3 hours for €640
Short on time or working with a smaller budget? Joining one of our regular boat tours is a great alternative. You’ll share the boat with other guests, while still enjoying the canals together as a group. The atmosphere stays relaxed and convivial — an easy way to experience Amsterdam from the water without compromising on comfort.
Our customer experience
Had amazing tour from Franco. Definitely recommended when weather is good.

Great hosts and a nice way to spend a sunny afternoon.
in the last week
We recently rented a boat from Mokumboot twice, and both experiences left us very impressed with their customer service. On our first rental, our trip took almost an hour longer than expected. When we returned, we assumed we would have to pay for the extra time. Instead, the staff pointed out—before we had even noticed ourselves—that according to their data, our boat had been moving slower than it should have. They not only chose not to charge us for the extra hour, but also apologized for the inconvenience. We really appreciated that level of honesty and fairness. On our second rental, the mistake was actually ours: we went to the wrong pickup location, which had already closed. After we called them, they quickly arranged for us to pick up a boat at another nearby location and even shifted our booking by half an hour so we could still enjoy the full amount of time we had paid for. Both experiences were excellent. Mokumboot handled two very different situations with flexibility, fairness, and genuinely good customer service. That kind of service is much appreciated, and we would happily rent from them again.

We had a great time. Everything was well organized. Maps clearly laid out and explained. Boat was easy to handle. We will definitely do this again.

Second time boating with MokumBoot and once again a fantastic experience! We combined two loops and saw almost the entire city center in 2 hours (this does require some boating skill). Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Amsterdam from the canals in good weather!

Something to celebrate? Drinks and food on board
Celebrating something special with a group of 20? Good drinks and tasty food make the moment even better. We make sure there are chilled drinks on board, from soft drinks to beer and wine. Let us know what your group prefers, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Looking for something extra? Choose a shared snack platter or go for a fun twist with a pizza boat or pancake cruise. Prefer to bring your own food and drinks instead? That’s no problem either. This is possible for a fee of €4 per person per hour, giving you full freedom to tailor the cruise to your celebration.
