Keukenhof and Lovers Canal Cruises Reveal Unique Keukenhof Cruiser in downtown Amsterdam

Keukenhof Canal Cruise Boat

Spring has officially begun! Today in Amsterdam, a special piece of sailing equipment was unveiled: the Keukenhof Canal Cruise Boat. This completely emission-free tour boat, decorated in the colourful Keukenhof style, was presented to the public by Sandra Bechtholt (general director Keukenhof), Jan Hendrik Philip (director/owner Enticon), Bianca Hillebrand (sales Keukenhof) and Joost van Berkel (Business Development Enticon).

This introduction marks the official kick-off of the tourist season, which began with the opening of Keukenhof on 20 March. Every year in spring, more than 1 million people travel to the Netherlands to admire the world-famous spring park, and to discover the iconic Amsterdam canals. Thanks to this new collaboration, Amsterdam residents, day trippers and international visitors can now cruise the canals in a colourful, 100% electric canal boat – a cheerful addition to Amsterdam's UNESCO World Heritage canals.

Working towards a more sustainable future

The Lovers Canal Cruises fleet, which consists of more than 50 ships, has been almost completely electrified in recent years. The new Keukenhof tour boat is a wonderful example of this: emission-free, quiet and stylish.

Years of collaboration

Keukenhof and Enticon – the parent company of Lovers Canal Cruises and Tours & Tickets, have been working together for decades. With Tours & Tickets, tens of thousands of visitors a year travel by bus from the centre of Amsterdam directly to Keukenhof. This makes it easy and comfortable for guests from all over the world to combine their trip to Amsterdam with a visit to the most beautiful spring park in the world.

Guest experience first

What Keukenhof, Lovers Canal Cruises and Tours & Tickets have in common is a shared vision of the guest experience. These organisations are among the most famous experience organisers of the Netherlands, and put their heart and soul into offering their guests an unforgettable experience. Whether it's admiring millions of blooming tulips or a relaxing canal cruise, service, personal attention and quality are always key.

With the introduction of the Keukenhof canal cruise boat, the Amsterdam canals are becoming even more beautiful – a sailing tribute to spring that is sure to put a smile on your face.
