What are people saying about Amsterdam

Andrew_M, Jul 2026

The Best Anne Frank Tour in Amsterdam

Absolutely amazing tour. Kees, our tour guide, was fantastic and provided us with a nice surprise family connection half way through the tour. Kees made for an unforgettable experience and really showcased the cultural significance of such a dark time in life. The VR experience at the end was worth every penny, as you got to see the house as it was in the 1940s with all furniture in place and got to experience the attic which is off limits during the in person house tour. 10/10, would absolutely recommend.

Morning Canal Cruise Amsterdam in Small-Group

Brad_J, Jul 2026

Best canal cruise in the city!

Highly recommend taking the 8am morning cruise, as the canals are far less busy, and there is a sense of tranquility in the city before many people are up. The Captain Dave boat is one of the nicer boats on the canal; smaller and more personal than those large ones that look unappealing. And the furnishings on the boat are charming. Our guide was very informative, if perhaps lacking a touch of charisma or humour. But we learned a lot about the city and the canals, and the views from the water are spectacular. Overall, we highly recommend taking this cruise over others.

Bruges Day Trip from Amsterdam

Charles_F, Jul 2026

Well worth the time for this trip.

Others have said that you spend more time getting to and from Amsterdam, and that part is true. You have a nice clean air conditioned bus to nap or watch the countryside from while in transit. Once you get to Bruges, you are taken back in time to a wonderful and beautiful city. There is a lot to see and you’ll get amazing pictures. Take your time finding a nice restaurant for lunch. Some of them on them main tourist areas are just average. Use some of your bus time to locate a good spot. The tour guides are really good. Be prepared that your bus trip may be given in English and in Spanish. Don’t panic, Your tour in Bruges will be English for English speakers. Someone else will guide the Bruges trip in Spanish for Spanish speakers. Our trip was sunny and hot. The guide says most tours have some rain. Be prepared and check the weather for appropriate clothing and rain gear.

Amsterdam City Top Highlights Guided Bike Tour

Charlotte_P, Jun 2026

Do this upon arrival in Amsterdam

We took this tour with our guide, Luna, who was great! My only regret is that we did not do this sooner. It is my second trip to Amsterdam and had I ridden a bike here earlier, I would have had a better appreciation of the protocols. Otherwise, iit was my favorite experience in Amerstam (yes, better than Ann Frank!).

Relaxed Cruising the Canals

Captain Don and bartender Lemone were very knowledgeable and humorous in their narration of the tour. The umbrellas provided much needed relief from the 94 degree heat of the day. Drinks were provided and refills regularly checked on. Lots of fun and highly recommend unless rain is threatening.

Amsterdam The Original Pizza Cruise with Unlimited Drinks

Rebecca_C, Nov 2025

Pizza boat trip

easy to find , got aboard and was asked which pizza we would like and had about 5 options, alcohol was included this consisted of wine or beer but soft drinks also included, nuts was also on the table To nibble on , staff on the boat was very friendly. We had a lovely evening the pizza was lovely but I would say , more information/history should be given as a lot of the trip itself the guide was not talking through which was a shame , canals looked beautiful at night and we are glad we done the trip
