Boat · 1 h 30 · The 400-year-old canal ring of the centre, in an open boat with a volunteer guide. €14.50 adults, €10 children.

Few visitors know that The Hague has canals: a ring more than 400 years old around the centre, almost intact. De Ooievaart, a city foundation, tours them in open boats with a volunteer guide who tells the story of the city from the water. The trip lasts an hour and a half and leaves from Bierkade 19, ten minutes on foot from Den Haag Centraal and Hollands Spoor.
Prices and season
Adults pay €14.50 and children €10. Arrive a quarter of an hour before departure. In 2026 there are works along the route, which may change and take a little longer. From June to October there is also a boat that goes to Delft in the morning and returns at midday. Dogs are not allowed.
