How it works
Arriving in Amsterdam by cruise? Want to experience the city like the locals do? Amsterbike is just a 2-minute walk from the cruise terminal, making it easy to start your visit without extra transfers or complicated planning. From our location at Piet Heinkade 25, your group can quickly pick up bikes, meet a local guide, or begin a private tour through the city. We can adapt the experience to your arrival time, departure time, group size, and preferred pace, so you can see more of Amsterdam during your stop.

Bike Rental and Delivery
If you only have a few hours in Amsterdam, renting a bike is one of the quickest ways to see the city. Amsterbike is located right next to the cruise terminal, so you can walk over, pick up your bike, and start exploring without waiting for taxis or public transport.
Cycle from the terminal to the canals, historic centre, museums, parks, and local neighbourhoods at your own pace. Bikes can be rented for a few hours, a full day, or longer. Each rental includes useful essentials such as locks, fastening bands, and a map. You can also request that your bikes be delivered directly to your accommodation here.
Bike tours
A guided bike tour is ideal for cruise passengers who want to see as much of Amsterdam as possible in a short stop. Starting close to the cruise terminal, you can quickly reach the city’s highlights while learning about Amsterdam’s history, canals, architecture, and cycling culture from a local guide.
If you select a private tour, it can be adapted to your ship’s schedule, group size, and preferred pace. This makes it a good option for families, private groups, and international visitors who want a complete introduction to the city without losing time on planning. We use our own fleet of regular bikes and e-bike. Browse our private experiences below for inspiration, then customize your tour to match your group’s interests.
Walking tours
Prefer to stay on foot? A walking tour is a simple way to explore Amsterdam during a short cruise stop, especially with Amsterbike located only a 2-minute walk from the terminal.
Our walking tours can focus on the historic centre, canals, local stories, hidden details, or a specific theme chosen for your group. They work well for mixed groups, visitors who do not want to cycle, or anyone who wants a relaxed introduction to Amsterdam close to the cruise port.
Boat tours
A boat tour is a relaxed way to see Amsterdam from the canals during your shore excursion. It works well for cruise passengers who want a scenic experience without covering long distances on foot.
A boat tour can be booked as a standalone activity or combined with a bike tour, walking tour, lunch stop, or another group activity. This gives your group a varied Amsterdam experience while still keeping the programme realistic for the time you have in port. Boats can be open or closed depending on request.
