FABULOUS! - We had an amazing experience on our cruise on the canals of Amsterdam. Nobby and Margo were fabulous hosts and tour guides. We had a short visit to the city and this cruise allowed us to see so much in a short time. We took a cruise in the evening so we saw part of the city in daylight and part in the dark...incredible!

😊😊😊😊👍👍👍 - Had a great time on a cruise around the city of Amsterdam. I previously used this boat company last year and really enjoyed so decided to book with them again. Charlotte & Dominiqe were great hosts and had wide knowledge on the city and its history. Thank you 😊

Great Way to See Amsterdam - There are many canal boat options to choose from in Amsterdam. We chose this one as it gave us the opportunity to buy beer onboard. There is an all-included version, but my wife does not drink beer so this worked out better. Our guides Dex and Charlie were very friendly, both were particularly knowledgeable about the sights we saw. Highly recommend this canal boat tour.

Great overview of central amsterdam - We enjoyed a nice and insightful 70min boat ride thanks to our guides Kaja and Justin- they pointed out some interesting facts and told some funny stories about the city. All in all a great experience, we paid 15€ per adult, beer and soft drinks were available for purchase (~2-3€)!

Fantastic Voyage - Koen and Khadir were an amazing captain and guide. We learned a lot about Amsterdam on the tour, and they were very kind and enthusiastic. Beautiful scenery, and they pointed out the best sights. We loved the unlimited free drinks, the can crusher, and the fact there was a bathroom on the boat.

100% recommend, really great experience and great value for money ! - I went on a 70 minute cruise (which delightfully ended up lasting 90 minutes!) on Monday 29th evening. Blankets, cushions, drinks and a clean toilet were all provided which displayed an excellent level of service. I unfortunately cannot remember the name of the sailor and lady team member who were on board, but they were extremely lovely and helpful throughout the whole journey. Great selection of drinks including coke, coffee and beer ! Perfect for all visits i.e. couples and families, I was in a couple. I would highly recommend this canal cruise service, I would even go as far to say it may be the best value for money cruise in Amsterdam! Will definitely use again when I return !

No communication - I got to the meeting point and there was no one there. I paid money to get to the meeting point as I was staying far away, and I didn’t even get to do the cruise. I tried contacting the tour operator via the provided number, and no one answered. Waiting for a refund.
