Not being a fully glass top boat made it a little more challenging to see everything, but overall a good tour for the value.

This was a great experience, friendly, knowledgeable guides and a never ending supply of wine! We booked our experience at 6.30pm out of convenience but ended up with the most beautiful sunset cruise! Thank you.

The tour was wonderful! Our guides, Sofia and her BFF, were fantastic! Plenty of wine and cheese to keep is going for the duration of the tour. Would highly recommend to others and would do it again ourselves next time we visit!

Eye candy not listed but given for free. We love Jenne and Joel. If you see this know we’re all thinking of you. My friend Jess said it was the best day of her life and I have to agree. €10 extra for unlimited cheese and wine was worth it. We all hope to return one day.

Great hour spent on the cruise. The guide was excellent at keeping a large group entertained while topping up our glasses. I was impressed with how she managed that. Cheese was good too! Would definitely recommend to others.

This was a great cruise. The crew were amazing. They were very friendly and funny. There was an endless supply of cheese and drinks (alcoholic & non-alcoholic). I highly recommend this cruise!

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.

Was a nice boat ride. However the audio part of the door wasnt aligned with where we were on the canals so got confusing and had already gone past some of the places before it had told us about it

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.

The cruise was good value for money. Probably not as great a view as a roofless boat but the weather was cold so this worked for us.

The canal tour itself was fine. We were a little annoyed that the audio guide and the captain explained things at the same time. You couldn't hear both at the same time. The audio guide didn't really fit the tour either. Sometimes things were explained that you didn't see at all because you had already passed by or they came much later than announced or we had to take a different route because of the heavy traffic. We can't recommend the tour in rain or drizzle. The windows had to stay closed and the drops made it pretty difficult to see out. Next time we would like to do a canal tour in good weather and in one of the older canal boats.

A must do in Amsterdam, you will to get almost everywhere in the city, with guided audio and a captain who also a guide too. Easy to use, access and good value too

Amazing! Probably the most entertaining experience we had in Amsterdam! Our guides Kyan and Zofia were great! (We even got a free shot for answering a question right). It’s not the first cruise I have been to in Amsterdam but it was definitely the best. So if you are looking to discover Amsterdam whilst having fun with friendly people + a delicious drink, this is the tour to book!

Amazing!! I went with my partner and we found an extremely cozy place at the end of the boat where we lied down for the whole hour and got served with any (and unlimited) drinks we wanted. The 2 guides were very friendly and also told us lots of interesting infos about Amsterdam. It was absolutely worth the money.

Denise

We really loved the trip! By changing from sunset to night, we were shown a completely different picture of Amsterdam. Unfortunately, the audio guide was like any other, only including a few sights. The impressions of the city were still beautiful and memorable. You have the option to stay seated in the closed area or go to the back into the open area. The driver and other staff were very nice. Although we had already taken another canal cruise, we really enjoyed this cruise.

Carolyn H.

We did make a tour at the city and sometimes the guide talked about some fun facts but most of the time we had the information coming from the walls with a pre recorded audio with headsets making us able to choose which language to hear from. It was awesome, the back of the boat have a panoramic view and it's great to take pictures and apreciate the landscape.

It was a lovely evening cruise. Only downside is they don’t have enough seating. We got there 5 minutes before we were due to depart (flight was delayed so had to race there!). We sat outside which was nice, better than inside I’d say. But there just simply wasn’t enough seating for the amount of tickets they sell. My advice, get there early and sit on the back of the boat outside, beautiful views. If you sit inside you don’t have a table to yourself you sit with others.

Kayshel

The duration as perfect. Got to see and learn so much more than I would have on foot. Perfect time to do it right before sunset so you get the city at daylight and the night lights. Enclosed so not cold like other boats looked but had an outside area you could go to for photos or to sit I'd you preferred.

The location of the sights needs to be described better (e.g. left, right, front). It was too warm on the boat and there was a lack of fresh air. Drinks offer would have been nice

Richard O.

The activity itself was brilliant! Highly recommended if you’re going away with the Mrs. Or a good crack with the Lads.! However they are healthy when it comes to wine pouring but stingy on the cheese side of things, I’d highly recommend smuggling your own cheese and bread on board! But all round good activity

Patricia B.

The Cheese and Wine Canal Cruise was a great experience! Our guide was equally hilarious and informative. We took this tour towards the end of our trip and I’m so glad we did! There are so many sights we missed while walking and biking. Seeing the historic buildings from the canals and learning about each canal house from our guide was a great way to end our wonderful time in Amsterdam! Also, the wine and cheese were spectacular! The service was fantastic. 10/10 recommend!

Eddie G.

We chose this particular cruise from the myriad of choices for the following reasons: - the boat had a smaller capacity, resulting in a quiet and tranquil experience. - food and drink quantities were generous but I would not recommend this cruise to people who are looking for an all-you-can-drink rowdy party boat. - the boat was covered so poor weather (ie rain) would not result in cancellation - flexibility of drink options. beer was offered in addition to wine (one of our party does not like wine) The cruise met our expectations. The captain and his crew were great!

Shani-Lee

about 1 month ago
Was an amazing experience! We only gave it a 4/5 as there were some rude people who continued to speak over the guide, even though she did ask them to quiet down, so we missed some information. I suggest a canal cruise option without commentary to be added for those who want to talk, enjoy some wine and cheese, without learning the history of Amsterdam. The guide, nevertheless of the rude people, did a great job discussing the significance of different sites. Delicious cheese platter and great wine.

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.

The tour was a last minute booking after we lost pur flight. It was our 25 year anniversary and I wanted to treat my wife to something nice. This was amazing. Beautiful, romantic, Anna and Alexa, our tour waitresses were amazing. They were friendly, informative, even gave us a bottle of wine as a present for our anniversary. The tour itself, was relaxing, enjoyable, beautiful. The Canals of the Netherlands are such a trip down a part of history that we don’t get to experience often. What a beautiful city. Thank you for making this tour so good.

- excellent & knowledgeable guide - small jetty for easy access to the boat was fantastic, as I always struggle to get in and out boats - perfect boat for a sunny hot day in the middle of a heat wave: canvas roof with rolled out openings let fresh air in while providing the needed shadow - fitted a small group of 10 people with ease - great food and all kinds of cold drinks. in short: great experience!

The guide was very nice. But we would have liked more information. All in all, the tour was okay, but nothing to write home about. It's also difficult when the tour title and description say that drinks are included, but you have to choose (and pay for) another option to get them. Several passengers were surprised by this. We chose this slightly more expensive tour because of the drinks. Next time, we'll choose a provider with an audio guide.

The boat trip is fine and one gets to see Amsterdam from the water. We did not like the experience from this company. The guide was probably new and didn't know much. Just explained a couple of spots. i have had better ones.

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.

Absolutely brilliant, and relaxing, tour. Most of the time was spent relaxing and enjoying the views, company of friends, and atmosphere of it all. The few tour guide anecdotes Lu told were informative and funny. Bo the driver has some exceptional driving abilities fitting the boat down the narrow canals. The only issue we had was finding the location to meet. It is exactly where the app says, and google maps, it’s exactly on the pointer location but there are no signs and the boat doesn’t arrive until after you are supposed to be there, so we were unsure if we were in the correct location. All in all it was a very worthwhile experience, great price, atmosphere, and hosts.

Very good tour, incredible landscape, comfortable transportation. The only problem is the website to follow the route with the guide: the audio kept stopping. Furthermore, I bought a headset on site, but the headset didn't work. So I really recommend taking the headset you already use on your cell phone, maybe it will work.

The tour is amazing and you enjoy a stunning view while smoking. I think it's a MUST if you traveled to Amsterdam for the 420 culture. The guide was cool and explained us some highlights and facts about the city, architecture, museums... However, I wouldn't recommend it solo because the other people is not very friendly to talk with strangers, or maybe I had bad luck

A special shoutout to our guide Ashleigh who was so friendly and was the perfect guide for our first visit, with super interesting information about the city. She also provided some of her personal recommendations of places in the city to visit! Booking the unlimited drinks was also very worth it, Ashleigh kept us topped up the entire hour. Definitely recommend!

Very nice canal trip, of course depending on the weather it was dry for us. We left early in the evening so we were back by dusk. The guide told a lot about the history and life in Amsterdam, well and understandably in English with a few jokes. If it is too cold there are blankets and drinks are sufficient if you choose this option. Recommendation goes out.

You have to expect something like that... The trip is still highly recommended. Amsterdam is a dream, especially at night. 😀

We enjoyed the cruise on the canals of Amsterdam but thought the seating arrangements were a bit chaotic The commentary was difficult to hear as we sailed through the different areas of the city with the amount of people talking The food was good but would advise that the plates should have been warmed prior to serving We had the fish option and were also given plenty of wine during the cruise The staff were pleasant on what seemed a difficult job seating people which could have been solved if people had been allocated specific seats prior to boarding We would like to make a special mention to Lucy who was very helpful and pleasant

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.

A wonderful, romantic dinner. We ate very well and drank unlimited good CHARDONNAY wine. The crew on board took great care. We shared our table with another couple so a little less intimate but we had the place next to the windows and were able to admire the view. We have very good memories of it. We recommend 100%

There was a lot of processing at the beginning, but it was very nice on the boat. Relatively loud atmosphere, but you quickly forget that. Very tasty food and great wine. The service staff was very attentive and quick. Great impressions at night.

I booked it spontaneously, for my husband and my mother in law. We had so much fun and it passed by way too quickly. Sanja was our guide and made the tour very fun! Anytime again!!

I booked this canal cruise as part of a 9 person stag trip from Scotland. I was booking a number of activities at the same time and I managed to overlook that this was a German cruise. As 9 non German speaking Scottish tourists I can honestly say we had the best time. Although we missed most of what the tour guide Marta was telling the group, both she and the other guests made us feel very welcome, we all had a good laugh together about my booking mishap and the sights were amazing. Was undoubtedly the best hour of our weekend and it will be talked about for months if not years to come. Highly recommend.

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.

We booked our canal tour for the day we arrived in Amsterdam (Sunday), and it was the perfect way to start our holiday! The staff were very friendly and attentive, and also gave us lots of information and history throughout the tour. They made sure to offer to take pictures for all of us on the cruise, and when it started raining towards the end of the cruise, they handed out umbrellas for everyone. We really enjoyed our tour, and will be booking again when we return to Amsterdam in the near future

We had such a great experience on the Bulldog Boat Cruise! From the start, the team were incredibly kind and hospitable – we got a little lost on the way, and they kindly waited for us, which we really appreciated. Even for those who missed the boat, they generously offered a spot on the next cruise so no one was left out. The staff shared interesting facts about the city and its history, but what really stood out was their sense of humour – the commentary was both informative and genuinely funny, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cruise that’s not only scenic but also personal, engaging, and full of character. Thank you to the Bulldog team for such a memorable experience!

Overall good experience. The captain and the staff on board were very nice and friendly. The historical information provided by the commander is interesting. The possibility of using the audio guide directly from your smartphone in the desired language is positive. Journey of approximately one hour with the possibility of ending the tour at the central station instead of at the boarding point. The only sore point was the weather situation, we took the tour in the rain, but indoors and in the heat.

The meeting point is on the side where the AdamTower is, so behind the train station you take the free ferry (which runs every 3 minutes) and then you have about a 2-minute walk. Check-in was quick and easy, the free audio guide was also good, the app still had to be downloaded but the skipper provided help with this. The trip itself was great and informative. Clear recommendation!!

Boat clean. Audio guide didn't work for 3 people in our group, so no operating error. Since we speak English and the captain articulated well, that was ok. But that's not the point - not everyone can speak English. It also requires a cell phone, which is not mentioned anywhere. Audio guide doesn't mean that you have to constantly hold your cell phone to your ear and your arm becomes paralyzed. We started with headphones. In addition, the labeling could be better. Hop on hop off is not the same as canal cruising. Luckily we were in the correct queue, although it wasn't immediately obvious.

The crew was energetic and so informative. The snacks were a lovely addition to a beautiful tour. It was far superior than the prerecorded boat tours that start from Amsterdam Central because 1. The crews the stories and information had such a personal touch 2. The boat was so comfortable you could really enjoy the sights no matter where you sat. 3. The crew. I cannot say enough good things that I have to mention them twice because they are the VIPSs they cared that we had a great experience. Thanks Capatin Cat and Ro!!

He helped us to make sense of the history and geography, very interesting. Showed us all the pubs and restaurants to go to. This is by far the best canal cruise in the city. We had cheese, wine, beer ,soft drinks, sweets, crackers, there was so much to serve everyone plenty. Thank you Mouse . We loved your energy.

The canal cruise with Captain Cat was great! She was fun and engaging, giving lots of history and details about what we were seeing. It was a small group of about 20, in a beautiful enclosed boat from 1910. There were plenty of drinks (soda, iced tea, water, juice, beer and wine) and I ate my fill of snacks (cheese and crackers, cookies, and Dutch candies). I thought it was so fun, relaxing, and one of my favorite parts of my trip. I saw so many canal cruises happening with different companies in Amsterdam, but all of the people looked so bored on all those other boats! They were crammed in on hard benches, listening to an audio guide through headphones and no one I saw was smiling. But with Captain Jack Cruises, it felt like being welcomed into a floating living room for an hour and a half 🙂 I definitely recommend!

Definitely recommend if you’re looking for more of a chilled vibe, rather than a guided tour!

I liked the canal cruise, even though the focus was more on the food and drink, but that's exactly what I liked about this tour. The pizza was from New York Pizza, unfortunately it was already cold when you got it. The drinks were always refilled and you also had the choice between 3 different types of wine. The guide was nice and talked live about the things you saw.

I have done this before in 2023 and was so fun. This time, service was sooo slow for pizza and drinks. We asked for rose wine and twice got white wine which wasnt very tasty. Pizzas this time had not much flavour and were cold by time got served. Previous time had none of these issues. May of been a bad day.
