Amsterdam Cruise Port Tours and Tickets

When your ship is docked in Amsterdam, treat yourself to a colorful explosion of flowers at the Keukenhof Gardens. In the springtime, marvel at the millions of tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, other spring bulbs, and trees making up the gardens. With transport by luxury coach included, this shore excursion from Amsterdam is the easiest way to travel to these out-of-the-way gardens, one of the Netherlands' top attractions.

When your cruise ship docks in Amsterdam, set off from port with your very own guide to discover the city like a local. On this private, 4-hour shore excursion, you'll explore Albert Cuyp street market, the Museum District and the Jordaan district, whose jumbled streets are laced with cafes, galleries and quirky shops. Learn about life in the liberal capital; try a typical Dutch snack in Leidseplein and visit the Houseboat Museum to learn about the city's houseboat culture.

Swap Amsterdam's cruise port for the gabled houses, pretty canals and historic landmarks the city is famous for on this 3-hour shore excursion. Sitting comfortably aboard an air-conditioned coach, you'll spend the morning getting acquainted with the charming Dutch city.

Upgrade to include a 1-hour canal cruise through the historical heart of Amsterdam.

Leave the bustle of Amsterdam behind and spend half a day exploring the Dutch countryside. Feel like you've stepped back in time to the 17th and 18th centuries when you visit Zaanse Schans, a village of windmills and wooden houses. Your idyllic journey continues in the well-known fishing villages of Volendam and Marken, and includes a visit to a traditional cheese farm. This 5.5-hour shore excursion from Amsterdam is available in the morning and afternoon.
