Although the 12+1 rule applies to private boats on King’s Day — allowing a maximum of twelve passengers plus a skipper — this restriction does not apply to professionally operated vessels. This means that with Amsterdam Boats, you can comfortably sail with a larger group on 27 April.
Our certified canal boats meet all professional licensing and safety requirements set by the Gemeente Amsterdam, allowing us to host groups significantly larger than what’s permitted on private crafts. As a result, a private cruise with Amsterdam Boats is the perfect solution for groups that want to experience King’s Day together, without being split across multiple small vessels.
With us, you benefit from:
• Large-group capacity on professionally licensed boats
• A fully trained crew ensuring safety and smooth navigation
• Spacious, stable and comfortable vessels, ideal during peak King’s Day crowds
• One shared celebration where your entire group stays together
• A carefree experience on the water — everything is arranged for you
This way, you enjoy the best of both worlds: full compliance with city regulations and the ability to celebrate King’s Day on the Amsterdam canals with your whole group on one private boat.
