Cloud Boat Smoke-Friendly Canal Cruise (small group)

Excellent chilled boat trip. The boys were very informative and answered our questions (they probably hear the same everyday) with enthusiasm and love. Good job boys. My friend and I are both 60+ so we were the oldest on the boat but welcomed so warmly felt at ease straight away. My friend doesn't smoke but absolutely loved the trip. Thank you and hope to come back in 2026 same month as its my birthday on the 7th. You better still be running your trips.

Onno and Jose were amazing and entertaining. It was raining when we initially started (we really wanted to get on the flower and we weren’t disappointed) and they were accommodating - made sure we were dry and safe. We went as a group of 5, so it was perfect. We experienced rain and shine - which added to the beautiful charm of the city. We will do this again! Thank you to our gracious hosts. Love Amsterdam- this was a highlight of our trip.

My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful boat tour with this company, and we had an enormous amount of fun. We also received so many great tips from the staff, and we really want to give special thanks to Matis and Kostis. They gave us an incredible tour and did an outstanding job. We couldn’t be happier with the experience, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone!

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

We took the flowerboat together with guides Victoria and Bader, they were extremely nice, friendly and entertaining!! For 5€ more you can get two drinks on board, which was definitely worth it. The city was incredible and the boat was one of the cutest attractions on the canal! I would 10/10 recommend :)

The tour was awesome. Shotout to Joshua, that told us the story and places of Amsterdam, eventhough the clouds were dominating our thoughts. A very friendly and exclusively funny way of telling us about the city. All the respect and success. Thank you for the experience.
