We saw many places. Mostly it was a tour around the city center, where there are many interesting stories and facts. But what stood out the most was when we drove past the zoo and stopped to see the lions and then the elephants! And most of all, the children were happy when they were allowed to stand at the helm:)

Varun made sure that we had a great time on the Amsterdam canals, and his boat was a lot of fun to drive. Thanks for making the whole process simple and clear from our first messages, and for caring about us having a fun time!

If you don't have a boat license, renting a boat on the Click&Boat platform is no problem. With so many yacht charters to choose from in Amsterdam, you are sure to find an option suitable for you, even without a boat license. Depending on the size and type of the boat, you may not require a license to drive it - you should always check this with the boat owner via the Click&Boat platform's messaging system. In most cases, it is a popular choice to charter a yacht with a skipper or captain. Not only is your captain able to drive the boat for you and keep you safe but they also come in handy as a local expert. Your skipper will know all of the best spots.

Plus, they'll be able to answer any other questions you may have about the boat, sailing or the local area of Amsterdam.


Boat Rental Without License in Amsterdam

Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands and is an incredibly popular destination for tourists all year round. Lay back and let your skipper do all the work as they guide you calmly through the waves whilst you enjoy the famous atmosphere of Amsterdam. Renting a boat with a skipper can sometimes alter the price of your booking. Sometimes a skipper is an added extra and sometimes it is included in the initial price. We always recommend talking directly with the boat owners via the Click&Boat platform so that you know exactly what the role of your captain will be and how to best organise your yacht charter without license in Amsterdam.
