Combine this awesome experience with a canal cruise in the Amsterdam. The city is famous for its canals, and cruising along them is a fantastic way to see their beauty. During the one-hour canal cruise, you explore the stunning canal belt, often called the 'Venice of the North.' The narrow streets, the Anne Frank house, the lively districts like 'De Pijp' and the 'Jordaan district' – you will see it all from the water. This 100km-long canal belt is a UNESCO World Heritage Site! As you sail along the Keizersgracht, Prinsengracht, and Herengracht, you will see the three most famous canals in the city. In the old times, wealthy spice merchants built grand houses along these canals; today, you get to marvel at their beauty.
The canal cruise becomes even more interesting with an audio guide in 19 languages. You will learn much about the Amsterdam, making the experience even more enjoyable. So, if you are planning a day in the Amsterdam, make it extra special with a visit to Madame Tussauds to meet your favorite celebrities in wax form, and then hop on a canal cruise to soak in the sights and history of this beautiful city. It is a combo ticket that is fun for the whole family, and you will have memories to last a lifetime.
