Just awesome. What a great guide and an unforgettable tour. It was romantic and funny all at the same time. He took us under the skinny kissing bridge, and I laid a kiss on my girl right there—perfect moment. Drinks and food were fabulous. Couldn’t have asked for a better evening. 9/16/26 at 7pm.

Canal cruising in Amsterdam

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining on our canal cruise. It was so much fun touring the canals and learning about the history and culture of Amsterdam. We enjoyed a great selection of refreshments and cheese platters. The boat fit out was lovely, it was a small group and the canal cruise was great value.

Wonderful way to see Amsterdam from the canal view!

We had a wonderful relaxing time on the canal tour. Our guide was so patient and fun to chat with, she also shared lots of fun facts about Amsterdam. The weather was questionable so our tour was a very small group but that made it all the better and the beautiful pink sunset was the best way to end the evening! The checkin and pickup location was excellent. We also enjoyed the unlimited drinks along with umbrellas and blankets (and a toilet) if needed.

King Day Cruise

This was an excellent cruise with our Norwegian pilot, unfortunately with all the loud music on the streets, I couldn't hear his name. Kings Day is a crazy celebration but we had a unique front row seat to the celebration. The cruise takes you thru many of the narrow canals of Amsterdam and past old churches, beautiful homes and interesting architecture. I highly recommend this tour!

My husband and I took a 45 minute private canal cruise with our skipper Rocco. We were welcomed onboard with an array of beverages, snacks and a blanket to cuddle up in. Our skipper was very knowledgeable and shared stories of the canals history as we passed landmarks. He also took lovely pictures for us. My only regret was not doing the full 90 minute cruise so I recommend planning the extra time to do so.

Just do it … great way to get some history and entertainment with wit…. Roger is the man

Great experience, very informative and witty thanks to Roger the guide. Wanted it to be 3 hours it was that relaxing and entertaining. Thanks go to Jeremy as well the captain who made you feel the boat was floating on air. BTW the dock is one of the little docks ones across the road from Café Karpershoek…watch for the crew boarders in orange.
