The Floating Dutchman

We invite you to go on a 2¾-hour excursion by amphibious bus. This means that, not only can the bus drive on the roads, it can drive on water, too! The bus will take you to its special ‘dive zone’ in the Oosterdok, beside NEMO. Here, the bus will ‘dive’ into the water for an oh-so-peaceful tour of the canals of Amsterdam.

The Floating Dutchman sails past many of the famous sights of Amsterdam. From the water you will have a great view of the NEMO Science Centre, the Maritime Museum, the river Amstel including the Magere Brug and, on the way back, you will sail past the Hermitage Museum. The bus will finally emerge from the water when it reaches NEMO.
A guide will be available during the excursion to give a helpful commentary in two languages (Dutch and English).
