Reviews
Cleo
Very informative tour and friendly captain and staff. We got there on the nick of time but the lady staff was very friendly and assured us we can relax a bit and take the next one coming in the next 15 minutes. 5 stars! 😊
Veronica
Just a chill cruise around the canals mingling with the other attendees while sharing bud n beers. You’re not getting schooled about everything you’re passing and history etc, but I’m sure if you asked the hosts they’d share whatever knowledge they could. They were freakishly precise with when the rain would start/stop lol It was a fun relaxed time.
Susanne
The guide Justus is German and has lived in Amsterdam for 5 years. He can tell you a lot about the city's history and knows some good insider tips for restaurants.
Katia
The snack box was not appreciated, there were too many/too many specific snacks for everyone to like, perhaps a chocolate bar and classic crisps would have been more appreciated. But the ride was very nice!! It really deserves a lot
Eddie
Captain was very nice, sharing great stories about the city, staff was nice. Great to share a few beers and pizza with family cruising this lovely city.
Adriana
Our guide was great :) it could be a bit longer
Eduard
The canal cruise in Amsterdam was an unforgettable experience that I recommend to everyone. The quaint buildings and bridges along the canals were stunning and our captain was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Particularly impressive was the member of staff Martin who made our experience even better by impressing us with his knowledge and friendliness. Complimentary drinks on board also added to the pleasant atmosphere. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Amsterdam.
Vicenç
Highly recommended experience, correct food, the rest of 10!!!
Michelle
Great experience the guides were super friendly and funny !
Rebecca
Super friendly staff, pizza was nice, could have done with the option of sauces to go with it. The staff were attentive, plenty of drink available, although make sure you ask otherwise you may go without a top up. The ice cream was a nice touch. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for more of a chilled vibe, rather than a guided tour!
CHRISTINE
It's always very interesting to tour the city with the hop on hop off bus. It allows you to have a broad vision of the city and its extent. In addition, the comments allow you to learn about the history of the city. Absolutely do on the first day so you know what you're going to do next.
Angela
A very enjoyable boat trip through the Amsterdam canals. Nice dinner, nice music and top crew. This was the perfect choice for celebrating a 50th birthday. More than satisfied.
Melissa
We had the trip with Joshua, super nice! We were very very satisfied.
Luca
The trip was very pleasant and both the skipper and our guide were great, you could tell that they knew their way around well and they both also had a sense of humor. The route was good and there were enough drinks on board. Unfortunately, when it rains you can't see so well through the tarpaulin, but it was still interesting. When the sun is shining, the tour is definitely perfect.
Ute
Tour in the evening was nice, a little more explanations and information or links would have been nice.
Samantha
The museum is fantastic and has an amazing collection -sadly they do not have Start Night or the Night Cafe but they have so many others and a great narrative to follow as you go through the museum. The canal ride was nice and we appreciated the rest after so much sightseeing.
Bill
Great little boat trip, perfect if you want to smoke and chill taking in the cities sites, best to do it when it’s dark, also get free drinks and blankets.
Amber
A Great trip! A beautiful boat with great hosts! Very easy to find and everyone was kind and welcoming to us on board. A great skipper and our host made beautiful drinks that were incredible value for money! Lots of great information was given with Some memorable moments! Would go back In a heartbeat!
Aisling
Amazing guide amazing bar woman it was all over fantastic had a great time one of the highlights of our trip
Joshua
The activity itself was very nice, especially as Amsterdam was lit up well at night. The cheese and wine was plentiful and nice. Unfortunately, the tour was 20 minutes late departing and no explanation was given for the delays. It states to arrive 15 minutes early, so we were stood outside in the cold for 35 minutes waiting to board the boat, making us unhappy about the service before it started. The operators could have recognised that it was cold and offered everybody the opportunity to go into the ticket office whilst they prepared the boat, but this was not considered.
Gareth
The canal cruise was interesting and showed some good areas of Amsterdam. Only draw back was the smelly fumes out the back of the boat but that is to be expected. Loved the ice bar! Many people criticising and saying it was a waste of money but I thought it was a fantastic experience and my wife is now obsessed with the nougat and pistachio liqueur.
Michele
The boat cruise was good, nothing beyond that. The highlight for me was the unlimited wine and cheese, though it was clear that they were not of the highest quality. Despite this, I would still recommend it as the activity becomes more enjoyable with a drink in hand. The best part of the tour was undoubtedly our guide. Their enthusiasm was contagious and truly made our experience memorable. I doubt the tour would have been as enjoyable with a less engaging guide. I wouldn’t recommend the tour if you have other plans or things to do in Amsterdam, but if you're inclined to try it, this company is reputable, and the service was incredible. It's recommended for those looking to enjoy a relaxed cruise with some wine and cheese.
Thomas
