Toast to the new year with colleagues, clients or friends on a cruise through Amsterdam — our New Year's drinks package makes it easy.
Kick off the year together
January is the moment to bring people together. After the holidays, a New Year's reception is the perfect way to reconnect with colleagues, thank clients and share plans for the year ahead.
A New Year's drinks cruise turns that traditional reception into an experience. Instead of a meeting room with a few bottles of bubbles, your guests step on board a private salon boat and toast the new year while sailing through the winter canals.
What's included
Our New Year's drinks package is all-in, so you don't have to arrange anything separately:
- A cruise of at least two hours through the canals
- A welcome glass of prosecco for every guest
- An open bar with beer, wine and soft drinks
- A generous grazing table to share
- A skipper and host on board
Upgrade your evening
Want to make it extra special? When booking you can extend the cruise, upgrade the open bar to include spirits, or replace the grazing table with a two-course dinner or a walking dinner. The price updates directly while you choose.
For groups from 20 guests
The package is designed for groups from 20 guests, which makes it ideal for teams, departments and client receptions. Choose your date and group size on the booking page and you see the price straight away, excluding VAT.
Winter atmosphere included
January evenings on the canals have a magic of their own. The city is quiet, the lights reflect on the water and during the Amsterdam Light Festival you may pass illuminated artworks along the route. Inside, the heated cabin keeps everyone warm.
Plan ahead
The first weeks of January are the most popular for New Year's receptions. Reserve your date early so you can be sure of your preferred evening.
