Imagine this: warm cheese, laughter of your friends or family, the gentle rocking of the boat, candlelight reflecting on water, Amsterdam’s golden stone façades illuminated at dusk — the perfect blend of cosy and enchanting. This isn’t just a canal cruise; it’s a memory made by senses, flavour, and atmosphere.
The Amsterdam Cheese Fondue cruise is unlike anything else in the world — because it could only happen here. As your private boat glides through the city’s iconic canals, you’ll actually stop to pick up the freshly prepared cheese fondue from a local restaurant along the water. Watching your meal handed directly from the canal’s edge to your table is part of the magic — a moment that captures the effortless charm of Amsterdam. From there, you’ll enjoy the smooth, melty cheese as the city’s illuminated bridges and elegant canal houses drift by.
The Amsterdam Fondue Cruise turns dinner into an unforgettable canal adventure. Once the fondue is collected, the pot is set on your table, bubbling gently beside baskets of crusty bread, pickles, and fresh accompaniments. Paired with wine from the open bar, this floating feast combines flavour, fun, and a relaxed social atmosphere. It’s the perfect blend of sightseeing and dining — a canal cruise that satisfies every sense as you enjoy Amsterdam’s warm glow reflected in the water.
Every Dutch Cheese Fondue cruise is guided by our friendly crew, who make you feel like part of the Starboard family from the moment you step aboard. They’ll ensure your wine glass stays full, your fondue stays hot, and your evening stays effortlessly enjoyable. Their personal service and genuine hospitality turn this experience from a simple dinner into a memory — where the flavours of Dutch cheese meet the warmth of local culture and care.
There’s something magical about enjoying cheese fondue on a boat, surrounded by Amsterdam’s softly lit canals. Our 100% electric boats are quiet, and built for comfort, with seating that invites conversation and laughter.
