5 things to do in Amsterdam with Amsterdam Activity Guide
Looking for the best things to do in Amsterdam with a group? Forget the museum queues and the audio tours. If you’re rolling in with 10+ people — a stag do, hen party, birthday weekend, corporate trip — your shortlist looks completely different to the solo-tourist version. Here are the five things to do in Amsterdam that actually deliver for groups.
1. Get on a Private Canal Boat
The non-negotiable opener for any group weekend in Amsterdam. A private canal boat for 1.5 hours, unlimited drinks, your music, your people. Our Booze Boat is the classic from EUR 45 per person. Want food on board? Add the Pizza Boat or BBQ Boat.
2. Do a Themed Bar Crawl with a Host
Don’t try to wing nightlife with a big group. Get a host. The Dominatrix Bar Crawl (EUR 39.95 pp) hits 3 bars in 2 hours with shots, dares, and one of the most memorable group leaders in the city. For surreal energy, try the Oempa Loempa Bar Crawl instead.
3. Take a Workshop That Doubles as a Pre-Party
Workshops are the underrated group activity. They give your day structure, they’re drink-friendly, and they pull half-hungover groups back into the energy. The Twerk Workshop and Burlesque Workshop are both EUR 29.95 pp. For grown-up groups, the Whiskey Tasting or Gin Tasting Workshop is unbeatable.
4. Burn Energy Outside the City
Big groups need a daytime adrenaline activity. Quad Riding through the Dutch countryside (EUR 49.50 pp) is the best-value option. For full chaos, the Wipe Out Obstacle Course is a 3-hour, 7-obstacle course inspired by the TV show — about an hour from the city centre.
5. Finish with a Show or Dinner Experience
End the night somewhere that wraps food or entertainment into one fixed-price experience — fewer logistics, more story. The Stripclub Experience packages start at EUR 94.95 pp and handle entry, drinks and a dedicated moment for the bachelor.
