Combo: NEMO Science Museum Tickets + Amsterdam Canal Cruise

About this experience

NEMO Science Museum and Amsterdam Canal Cruise Combo Tickets This combination ticket gives you fast-track entry to Amsterdam's award-winning NEMO Science Museum plus a scenic canal cruise through the city's UNESCO World Heritage waterways. The striking ship-shaped NEMO building houses five floors of hands-on science exhibits, interactive experiments, and live demonstrations that entertain visitors of all ages. You'll skip the main entrance queue and dive straight into over 100 exhibits where you can generate electricity, conduct chemistry experiments, and watch the popular chain reaction show. Your canal cruise departs near Centraal Station aboard a glass-covered boat with audio commentary in 19 languages. As you glide past elegant 17th-century canal houses and beneath historic bridges, you'll spot landmarks like the Anne Frank House, Westerkerk, and the famous Skinny Bridge. The flexibility to visit both attractions on the same day or spread them across your trip makes this combo perfect for families and curious travellers who want to experience Amsterdam from different perspectives.
