Organized by Roeicentrum, gay and lesbian rowers (and their straight friends) are invited to join a special rowing tour through the center of Amsterdam. Participants will have an opportunity to see the areas and landmarks that played a role in the Amsterdam LGBT emancipation during the last century. Of course, rowers will also have a chance to see some of the many of the areas that Amsterdam can offer to its visitors. 
Every tour will be presented in a relaxed manner so that you can enjoy the sights and sounds of Amsterdam but of course rowers will also have an opportunity to work on their rowing technique! Rowers will put to the water in classic European, wide beam C-boats. Participants can choose if they want to choose sweep or sculling rowing technique.
Two different tours will be offered: one for experienced rowers and one for novices and new-to-rowing folk. All tours are guided and coxed by an instructor from the Roeicentrum rowing centre.
Tickets for the rowing tour cost 25 euros and can be purchased here.
->BIG NOTE! When you click on the above link to register and pay for the rowing tour, the text on the page says tours, as in multiple tours. It would appear that tours will be offered every day from 28 – 31 July and on Thursday, 04 August. Look for the green blocks on the scheduling calendar. To select the August date, just click on the right arrow of the scheduling calendar. We have highlighted 04 August for this event because that is the best day to be on the canals and enjoy Amsterdam Gay Pride before the big canal parade on Saturday.
