Our guide Anna was very informative with a great personality. Said straight away any questions pls ask. We paid slightly more for a beer or soft drink. I have done a cruise in the past and this was far better. Definitely recommend

The cruise was amazing! 🤩 John Paul, the guide and skipper, was super informative and funny, telling us stories about the contemporary and old Amsterdam. The choice of canals was thoughtful and varied, making us anticipate what was coming next. And finally the Eco Boats reps, William and Feli were very accommodating having us arrive late. Thank you all! We had a great time!
