Water Bicycle Canal Cruise with Plastic Fishing in Amsterdam

1 hour and 20 minutes

Moderate

Rent a pedal-powered water bike and explore Amsterdam’s canals while joining a plastic fishing mission — a fun and eco-friendly self-guided adventure.

Discover Amsterdam’s famous canals in a completely new way — by pedaling your own water bicycle while helping to keep the city clean!

This unique Water Bicycle Canal Cruise with Plastic Fishing lets you rent a pedal-powered water bike for a fun, self-guided journey through Amsterdam’s UNESCO-listed waterways. Armed with a net and bucket, you’ll collect floating plastic and waste as you explore, turning your sightseeing ride into a mini sustainability mission.

Perfect for couples, friends, and families, this experience blends leisure, adventure, and eco-action. You’ll see the city’s canals, bridges, and historic architecture from a new perspective — all while giving back to the environment.

Return your catch at the dock and snap a photo with your “eco haul” — proof of your positive impact on Amsterdam’s canals.
