If you decide to explore Amsterdam by boat, I recommend Flagship, they are very friendly and our ride with them was full of interesting information about the city and lots of laughs and jokes. The price was affordable and amounted to €20 for one hour of driving, drinks are not included in the price. #amsterdam #holland #netherlands #boat #canals #travel #ideas

Amsterdam was originally founded in the 12th century as a fishing village. The village derived its name from the Amstel River and the dam that was built in 1220 to avoid the floods from the ZuiderZee (South Sea) entering the inlands. Over time Amstellodamus evolved into Amsterdam.
