What are people saying about Amsterdam

Steven_D, Jun 2026

Mikee is the best.

This was an excellent tour. Mikee was very informative and knowledgeable about the whole area. She explained a lot about the history of the area and of the buildings. There was time to explore on our own as well as explanations led by her. Overall I have zero complaints and would definitely recommend taking this tour. It is a full 3.5 hours with 30 minutes travel each way. 2.5 hours in the town was the perfect amount.

Great Food Tour!

Barni was a terrific guide - he introduced us to amazing food, taught us a lot of history about Amsterdam and showed us historical sites as well! It’s so much more than simply a food tour! Barni engaged with everyone on the tour and happily encouraged everyone to try all the food! My one tip is to tell you to come hungry! The portions you get are not small!

Enjoy your travels

As a first timer visiting Amsterdam i highly recommend this activity. It gives us a chance to see Holland/Amsterdam in another perspective. The villages are very picturesque, dreamy and charming. Please buy cheese and clogs to take home in your country. Helps support local business.

Amsterdam All-Inclusive 90-Minutes Canal Cruise by Captain Jack

Kevin_N, Jun 2026

Great Sights and Wine & Cheese for Breakfast is lovely!

I thoroughly enjoyed the Amsterdam All-Inclusive 90-Minute Canal Cruise with Captain Jack. Our captain, Paul, was waiting at the meeting point right on time and even generously delayed departure by an extra 15 minutes for passengers who unfortunately never showed up. Throughout the cruise, Paul provided an informative and engaging commentary on the history of Amsterdam’s famous canals, sharing interesting facts and local insights that made the experience much more than just a boat ride. He was happy to answer questions, clearly knew his subject well, and interacted with passengers in a friendly and welcoming manner. Most importantly, Paul made everyone feel safe and comfortable on board. His patience, kindness, and professionalism were evident throughout the tour. As a side note, if your schedule allows, consider booking an earlier morning departure. We were told that canal traffic can become quite congested later in the day, and a quieter morning cruise would likely make for an even more relaxing experience. If you’re looking for a comfortable way to see Amsterdam from the water while learning about the city’s fascinating history, this cruise is an excellent choice.

Be prepared to be on your feet for over 2 hours. My guide was fantastic about finding us places to sit while he shared info & stories but that may not be the case all the time. Yoshi was fabulous! He imparted a great deal of information with sensitivity and compassion. I learned a great deal and would highly recommend this tour!

Grant_H, Jun 2026

Can't stop thinking about it

Christian was incredible. We've taken a lot of bike tours in our travels and they've all been interesting and educational. This one was simply breathtaking. We took it the day before flying out from our 2.5 week European vacation, and it's all we can think about. Highly recommended.

Kevin_K, Jun 2026

Great tour for true Amsterdam Culture!

Highly recommend, request Elias as your driver, he's a great guide and person. Tour is excellent to visit true Amsterdam culture, seeing cliffs made, visiting the historic windmills, and then Volendam which is a great true fishing town (recommend eating at 35, then grab stoopwaffels for later!).

The taste of Amsterdam...

The taste of Amsterdam was a wonderful start to my visit to Amsterdam. Provided an opportunity to visit several sites in Amsterdam. Experience a nice variety of cuisine - my favorite was the herring both in taste and how it impacted the history of Amsterdam. Todd provided an informative overview of food and history. Also enjoyed the international background of the others on the tour.

The Rijks Museum is incredible! I have no idea how you could see everything in just 1 day! Our tour guide was incredible! I can’t remember her name because I’m terrible with names. She had such a command of the details concerning the artwork! I wouldn’t have known where to begin. I highly recommend this tour!

Amsterdam Small-Group Canal Cruise Including Snacks and Drinks

Great way to see the city while relaxing

Captain Erik was friendly, funny and informative. This was my first time in Amsterdam, and I enjoyed seeing the city from the water. Delicious snacks and beverages were provided as well. We took this tour the same day we landed after a long red-eye, so it worked well to keep us awake and entertained.

Excellent service while onboard.

Boat captain/owner was excellent in his explanations of the canal system and things we were seeing. He was most helpful when we asked for assistance at end in getting a taxi/UBER ride back to our cruise ship made necessary by my cell phone running out of power. We are grateful.

Amazing!

We book the cruise only one hour before it started, and they didn’t overcharge us for being last-minute. Our guide was Nunzio, and we had an amazing time with him, listening to all his anecdotes and having the opportunity to see Amsterdam from a completely different point of view. Definitely recommended!
