Adam by boat, lying in the sun with drinks and funny stories - It was a great experience to see Adam by boat. Lying in the sun on one of the amazing boots of flagships. The service of Lotte was great, nice drinks for a good price. The captain Jan told us funny stories about Adam, we had a good laugh. Definitely a recommendation and very nice experience! I think also great for families to see Adam without the rush on the streets!

Charly&Maureen - A canal cruise with these two was the biggest memory I’ve got in Amsterdam! Their notes are interesting like no other and they really knew how to have fun with us! I enjoyed this boat trip so much and I truly recommend this iconic duo! #savethehat

Not a Light Festival Tour if you can't see the Lights! - I was incredibly disappointed in this tour, it was a waste of time and money. We were packed onto a long saloon boat with close to 60 people when I specifically chose the tour that said "luxury" for a more intimate experience and the website said it would be around 30-40 max. While we were waiting in line for our time slot, we overhead the staff talking about how they were cancelling boats and not all would be going out at and after our time slot 21:30, rather they were combining everyone on to less boats. This made the seating and ride incredibly uncomfortable and hot, as we were cramped in and all of the plastic coverings and windows were closed, despite it being a nice winter night and it said to dress warm so I was bundled up. When we got on the boat, we were asked to walk to the back of the long saloon boat, the biggest one I saw on the water, which had a plastic covering over the sides instead of clear glass, like the front had. The plastic did not lift up, so the view of the light show was foggy and completely unseeable. At one point I even tried to unzip part of the plastic so that I could get some air and take a photo of some of the lights. The "snacks" they provided, which on the site showed a picture of a nice laid out charcuterie board, was a small plastic container with some Chexmix. It also said that it would be a 75 minute tour and it was exactly 60 minutes from when we got loaded onto the boat to when I got off. There was no stopping or slowing down to let us even try to get a glimpse of the lights. Complete waste of money and time. Find a better tour that has more transparency in how they operate, what the "snacks" will be, and how many people will be on. I will not be booking a tour through this company again.

Tour not cancelled despite rainy weather - The weather conditions were clearly not suitable for the event, hours before the time of the event, yet it was not cancelled. The plastic windows on the boat were completely fogged up for the entire duration of the canal cruise, so you could not see the light installations at all!
