This is a wonderful experience to have in Amsterdam! A beautiful old boat with a lovely atmosphere, crisp white linen, candles and flowers. The team were especially friendly, engaging and very attentive. We were looked after so well. The food was outstanding. There were a variety of choices, it was beautifully presented and tasted very good indeed. Overall a fabulous experience for my mum’s 81st birthday! Thank you to the team!

Superb evening. Fabulous food, great service and lovely scenery as we cruised along the canals. Highly recommended
I was surprised this turned out to be the highlight of my visit to Amsterdam! I was a bit worried because I often get motion sickness but thankfully the water was smooth. Even more amazing than that was the food! The food was absolutely amazing. I wish they would leave business cards of the restaurant that catered the food so I could have visited again!
Smaller boat with a more intimate experience. Friendly crew. Very good food. Recommended to fellow travellers.
Very romantic and beautiful experience, wonderful attention to service and a beautiful evening sailing the canals, dinner was ok.
The boat ride and food were great. We were told that the tour operator informed you that the embarkation location had changed and Viator did not inform me. I contacted the tour operator and they came for us.
Beautiful boat. Stephen, the captain, was friendly, as was Sam, the server/bartender. The food was delicious, absolutely delicious. Do not pass this up!
This was the best canal cruise we had. It was romantic the food was wonderful. White tablecloths beautiful silver and crystal. Wine, drinks and beer included. The boat is beautiful, 100 years old and in great shape. Overall I highly recommend this cruise
What a great way to experience Amsterdam! The food was a 10/10 ! The food came
from a local restaurant, and the Chef came over to explain the dishes! I would highly recommend this experience!! I thought this would also be a tour or someone would explain some of the sights , and that wasn’t the case but even still, the experience was great!
Loved the whole experience. Would recommend it to anyone wanting to celebrate a special occasion or for any reason.
Intimate, lovely crew and servers. The food was wonderful and exceeded expectations! highly recommend after a long day of walking- the cruise was beautiful and relaxing!
Relaxing evening with a nice canal cruise and dinner. The food was excellent and the staff was helpful. Nice for a romantic night out. The vessel seats about 24 ppl so it's an intimate gathering.
Great overall experience. Scenery was amazing on the canals, especially at night with the lights of the city. Worth the trip itself. Server was knowledgeable and very friendly. She went out of her way to meet our needs. Food and presentation were very nice, but were not outstanding. Attractive in appearance, but didn’t appeal to our tastes.
Food was excellent! Friendly crew! Beautiful evening! The night was perfect and we all had so much fun.
It was lovely experience. The food was good, views were beautiful, vibe was amazing with the music. The crew were excellent.
This is a fabulous evening with excellent food and service. The cruise is well organized and the ship is beautiful.
This was a really good time to spend a couple of hours exploring the Amsterdam canals and waterways and the food supplied during the experience was absolutely fantastic!
Fantastic canal dinner cruise service and food was the best………………………………………………….,,,,,,,,,,…,.,,,,,,,,,,
Really enjoyable cruise with excellent hosting and food. A very nice way to see the canals and enjoy a nice time with loved ones.
Elegant and relaxing dinner cruise. The staff was great. They were very attentive and the food was great! I highly recommend this dinner cruise.
Boat was exceptional, fresh flowers, amazing food and hosts were wonderful. Highly recommend! We were blown away!
The Canal Dinner Cruise did not show up at the meeting point that was advertised. Unfortunately I can’t rate this trip because I wasn’t picked up.
The boats are just the right size - not too small not too large for a relaxing experience. The food is prepared by a restaurant and the cruise stops to get the food. In our case, the food was prepared by the owner of the restaurant and was excellent, far surpassing our expectations.
A very nice way to have a relaxing canal cruise with excellent dinner and service. Definitely recommend it.
It was amazing thru and thru on time and professional knew about the area enough to help guide us new people to the area
The dinner cruise was excellent, the food was superb, the service from Kirsten was first class and the skipper gave enough commentary to point out the highlights but not in an intrusive way. Unfortunately, because we booked late our booking was not transferred from Viator to the company to the boat so we were not on the guest list. There was then a tense wait while it was sorted and we were left standing on the quayside while the other guests were drinking complementary sparkling wine inside, despite there being a vacant table and no other guests had arrived. In the end it was all sorted but we were left disappointed with either Viator or the company (never got a credible explanation) but we were certainly not disappointed with the actual event.
It was such a lovely experience really nice staff and gorgeous restaurant food was served! Highly recommend
A bit of confusion about meeting point started our trip off a bit shakily, but cruise captain soon picked us up and all was 5* after that. Very lovely from tablecloths to service and 3 course gourmet food . Food was picked up efficiently from a restaurant along the way, once for main course and once for dessert. Classy trip. Would highly recommend for a couple.
Great way to see the harbor and the canals of Amsterdam. Boat staff was very friendly.
Drinks are expensive. You have to buy a large bottle of water—very pricey. One small glass of Coke was 4.50. Wish they would skip “free” welcome drink which is non -alcoholic or alcoholic bubbly. No other option on the free drink.
Salad was delicious. We had the beef entree selection. Meat had lots of grizzle and was hard to chew. Potatoes and vegetables were tasty.
A nice way to spend an evening on the water.
Not much information given while taken this tour. Mostly just stayed near the restaurant that supplies the food
Beautifully relaxing evening accompanied by delicious food!
Great and personable service.
Would highly recommend.
