Wonderful hour long boat ride from right outside Anne Frank’s house. An electric boat, so extremely peaceful. Headphones included with audio guide if wanted! Perfect way to relax after spending busy day exploring Amsterdam

Captain Louie did a great job of welcoming us and giving us other tidbits of pieces of information along our tour. He also had a very good sense of humor and made everybody feel welcomed. I would highly recommend this city tour. There are restrooms at the location where you check in. However, you do need a credit card to use the restroom. They charge a little over a dollar to use the restroom.

It was a very nice evening and an hour was more than enough. However, it was very tight and crowded.
