Tour was great. Our host was great - funny and personable. There is a big step down into the boat but they are helpful. Great way to see the city. However, it is much cheaper to just book when you get there at the dock, there are three companies and departures every 15 mins with cheese and drinks 20 euros cheaper than booking through they your guide (their markup).

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.

The staff is very friendly and pleasant, I think the wine and cheese tour should be on the other boat with cushions, if you are paying more $ for a wine and cheese experience.

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

A great way to see the canals, with wine and cheese. Our guide was very entertaining and informative. We had a great time. Highly recommended!

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 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.

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.

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

Our boat trip with Captain Dimitrov, Stijn, and Willem was pure joy from start to finish! I haven’t laughed this much in years - honestly, I’m counting it as my daily ab workout. These three aren’t just great sailors, they’re top-class entertainers who definitely deserve a raise. We’ll be back for sure… partly for the views, but mostly for the jokes!

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

Danny D.

Guide was very funny. It was great learning about all the history of Amsterdam. Definitely recommend doing this. This was the second time I’ve been to Amsterdam and the second time I’ve done a tour with this same company. Definitely recommend.

Lilli

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.

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.

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

Monika

Good value for money. The boats are filled quickly, with no breaks in between, no long waiting times. No one has to stay on the quay and be "devastated" (quote from another review). The audio guide was appropriate (GPS-oriented) and the instructions from our "captain" were useful.

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.

Cannot recommend enough, if you dont do anything else when you’re in amsterdam, do this! Emily was so lovely and never left us with an empty glass.

Nanhi

Overall experience was great. The guide and hostess on the boat were fabulous and friendly. The boat itself is not very comfortable as the top covering is low and seats are high so your neck and back are quite cramped if it’s a rainy day (which is often in Amsterdam). It would probably be way more comfortable with the top open but on a cold wet day the top needs to be covered.

Lillian

Very nice cruise with a lovely host Maeve but was advised it was luxury and would be 8 to 10 people but was boat was full and and tight with approx 20 people or more on board but overall very informative tour and the unlimited drinks option was definitely worth it

great, but after a day of visiting, 8:30 p.m. is still early, you might say, but it's hard to stay awake 😂😂 we were exhausted but still made the most of this moment. The night is absolutely different from the day it's great

A beautiful evening, nice service, but an audio guide without any timing. The stories were without direction and without regard to whether what was being told was in the right place.

Richard G.

20 days ago
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.

Denise

25 days ago
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.

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!

Really romantic moment. Calm and cozy atmosphere. Good service. Correct quantity of wine but a little more cheese would have been welcome.

Ruth

There was an expert guided tour through the beautifully illuminated canals at night. You could also ask questions directly. The service staff was attentive and cheerful. The captain did great. It was wonderful and the cheese and three types of wine to choose from tasted wonderful. This tour is highly recommended :-) Keep it up! Greetings, Mr & Mrs Zurich ;-)

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!

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

It was a beautiful canal cruise, particularly impressive at night with all the lights all around. A little more cheese could have been served.

Joshua

19 days ago
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.

great, just great. There is no other way to describe it. The staff was very nice and friendly. The three different wines to choose from were very tasty. Definitely recommended for tourists visiting Amsterdam for the first time. Probably also for people who have been here several times before, but then you don't just see new things.

We enjoyed the cruise very much. Two hours felt far too short, as Captain Erik’s stories were so engaging that we hardly had enough time to take in the beautiful views of the canals. There was a nice selection of snacks and drinks, making it easy to relax. The small group size also created a warm and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended!!!

- 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 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.

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!

Their friendliness, humor, and engaging style were beyond anything I’ve experienced anywhere else. They shared so much interesting information in a fun way that truly elevated the whole trip to another level. Definitely five stars,

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.

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.

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!

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

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.

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 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!!

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 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!!

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 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.

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.

Easy to find departure point and the captain was very clear in her instructions before setting off on a great experience. Progress was smooth and clearly the person guiding the barge knew exactly what she was doing. Our only v slight criticism is that the pre-recorded audio guide via head phones was a bit brief. Otherwise a great experience.

The 60mins canal cruise was very pleasant. The skipper even dropped us off at the museum. The museum was excellent. We used the audio guide to find the 'highlights'. It was very informative, but we found it quite difficult to understand its directions around the museum. So we had to keep asking the very friendly staff.

Really good package, do the museum first as your time slot is for that rather than the boat. The boat leaves on the hour up until 6 pm so allow enough time to fit both in. Food and drinks not sold on the boat, so bring with you. Museum lunch was disappointing, small portions, a bit stale, overpriced but the actual museum was very interesting.

Even though we bought 9am tickets to the Museum, they still let us in an hour and a half later. It took us quite a bit of time to figure out the city transportation, but definitely worth it. The canal cruise was average. You sit very low in the boat and your view is limited. The windows were not clean and no refreshments. The captain was pretty good at supplementing the pre-recorded guide. Overall, very interesting, but I would go for a separate cruise. And get it early, as the dinner cruise I wanted sold out!

The museum is wonderful and although we had a tickets for 10-30, we arrived around 10-15 but there was no trouble getting in earlier. The system for the canal cruise was also fine being able to take the cruise at whatever time we wanted. All worked very well

Great for your money. If you don’t understand english it may be a little hard on the canal tour. there is an audio tour in several languages but our guide made several corrections and side comments in english that others were not privy to due to the language barrier. overall great tho
