What an experience!

5.00What an incredible experience! Our guide was fantastic. He was friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the tour. We’ve done a number of canal cruises around the world, including several in Amsterdam, and this was by far the best experience we’ve had. The boat was comfortable, the atmosphere was great, and the insights into the city’s history and culture made the trip truly memorable. My wife and I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

False Advertising but Nice Crew

3.00This tour is described as having 2 types of cheese and passing several iconic monuments in the city. There was only 1 type of cheese and we did not visit many of the listed pass bys in the description of this tour. I was incredibly excited to see Anne Frank’s house, but this just didn’t happen. The staff on board were very nice though.
Fun Canal Cruise

5.00I have done many canal tours in Amsterdam, Copenhagen, and Harlem and this tour was a step above most. The guide was fun and personable and kept our wine glasses full. The cheese was yummy and the boat was a good combination of inside and outside (had nice cover from the sun). The only negative would be how loud the motor was, it interfered with our enjoyment of being on the canal. It would be nice if Amsterdam instituted the "only electric motors" requirement that Haarlem has. It makes a big difference. So until then, you will have to put up with a really loud motor.
I was hoping for more...
