Rent a small boat without skipper

Self drive boats in Amsterdam
In Amsterdam you can also rent a small boat without a skipper. You don’t need a licence or experience for that. This is an attractive option for small groups (2-12 people) that would like to drive their own boat on the Amsterdam canals and the Amstel river. Pick-up and return of your boat are at the dock of the rental company. You have to navigate yourself and you may bring your own food and drinks.
