Exceptional Amsterdam Cruise - Compliments and appreciation to Willem, owner, for the very warm welcome, and graciously accommodating our needs. Also, sincere gratitude for the amazing crew, Melanie and Clayton,. The boat was beautifully crafted and comfortable. The snacks were a lovely assortment of cheese, charcuterie, crackers, and grapes. Fantastic selection of Artisan beers and premium wines. Clayton, exceptional guide and personality, was a wealth of historical, architectural, and practical information. He made our cruise so fun and interesting. Melanie excellently navigated the boat through the most intricate passageways and narrow canals. The two hour experience was so memorable and truly a highlight.

Perfect canal tour! - Highly recommend! Lovely boat with a cheerful captain and knowledgeable guide. Yummy plate of snacks and the wine and beer flowed freely throughout the 2 hours! If you’re looking for a tour that highlights all the must sees of Amsterdam this may not be the one you’re looking for but if you want a fun, relaxing ride and general information about Amsterdam, this was a great cruise!

Excellent trip - Fantastic experience our skipper Stein and guide Clayton were brilliant hosts. They gave us great insight into the history of Amsterdam in a fun way. Both were brilliant and fun to be around, this was a lovely way to see the city and was a great experience. Much better than a canal barge pay the extra cash to do this tour it was very worth it.
