Okay, doing a canal cruise is not really a thing that locals do. But those who haven't done it are missing out. Rederij Plas offers the cheapest trip in the city: A €9 circle of 1 hour, which takes you to the East and South part of the centre. Of course they also have other offers.

As a visitor of Amsterdam, a boat ride will definitely add something to your trip. You can see the city from a different side. It gives you great opportunities to get to know the city and you can capture the canal houses on picture from the best angle.
Take your lover on a semi-cheezy, but still very romantic dinner by candle light on a canal cruise.
