Not so great of a cruise

Sandra_W, Jul 2025
Meeting point was incorrect. Showed my online viator ticket to three different employees. Was told where to go and what line to stand in. After 25 mins I found out we were in the wrong line for the one hour canal cruise and not the pizza cruise. Pizza had very little sauce or pepperoni. Service was slow and we had to ask for drinks in 94 degree weather. Captain was great.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Sandra, Thank you for your honest review. We're sorry for the confusion at boarding and the service delay. We'll follow up with our team to improve coordination and refreshment delivery. Glad to hear the captain made a good impression! Kind regards

Meeting place was...

Teresa_T, Jul 2025
Meeting place was incorrect on ticket. Asked where to go told go to orange flags several blocks away. Showed ticket at orange building. Told go to next building and go downstairs. Noticed other people had different tours. We got out of line and asked. Told to go upstairs to get a table assignment and wait there. Once on board at our table we had a bucket of drinks all warm. We didn’t care for any of the selection in our bucket. We were finally able to order something different. The new drinks were very warm. So we ordered water. Pizzas was not warm.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Teresa, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're sorry for the confusion at check-in and the issues with drink temperature. We’re reviewing service and signage to improve the experience. We appreciate your patience. Kind regards

This review is about Viator not the tour, as we was unable to go on the pizza cruise due to the fact Viator took our money and didn’t send over the reservation to lovers cruise. We arrived at the meeting point , and the company did not have our booking. They were unable to accommodate us because they were fully booked. Lovers cafe did everything to help us but unfortunately we were not able to participate on the cruise. They advised us that we were fully entitled to a full a refund from Viator and to contact them directly. Since retuning home I have messaged Viator, and been ignored and also requested a refund explaining everything, for it to be rejected. Viator please refund our money as soon as possible. We had this booked for 4 months and were left extremely disappointed.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Dear Ruth, We are so sorry that you had this experience and we are happy to read that our colleagues from Lovers were able to help you :) In regards to your refund, we kindly ask you to contact Viator customer support directly at customer.care@viator.com so they can assist you further. Have a lovely day kind regards, Lovers Canal Cruises

Viator messed up my booking so one star

Melanie_D, Mar 2025
I booked this for me and my boyfriend and when we arrived at the lovers boat cruise place they told us Viator hadn’t properly given the information to them and only put trough a 1 person booking even tho I payed for 2. This is Viator a fault not the lover cruise company they were very helpfull and gave us a different cruise for free (ofcourse it meant no meal tho sadly) so the 1 star is meant for Viator not lovers cruise they were great

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Took my money with no service rendered

Amanda_M, Mar 2025
Wasn’t able to go on tour they only had one seat left when I tried to order a different pizza for a friend I got an email the day of saying they cancelled our reservation. They didn’t give me a refund for the first reservation though. Terrible option menu you should be able to order different pizzas for group reservations that option wasn’t available…

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Dear Guest, We are so sorry that you could not join our Pizza Cruise. We kindly ask you to contact Viator customer support directly at customer.care@viator.com so our colleagues can help you further. Have a lovely day kind regards, Pizza Cruise in Amsterdam

Excellent Cruise…

Devang_D, Dec 2024
Excellent Cruise. Excellent champagne and pizzas. Experience Was very enjoyable. Would surely recommend using the tour.

did not meet expectations

Deborah_D, Nov 2024
This trip was not what we expected. There was very little information shared- majority of trip the tour guide was silent, only pointing out a few buildings. The pizza was cold. Servers were attentive which was good. it was difficult to see anything through the glass. we were very dissapointed in this experience.

Enjoyable night tour

Marilyn_H, Nov 2024
Lovely experience, really enjoyed it on our first night in Amsterdam. The host and driver were very friendly and attentive.

5 -Star Tour!

Irina_S, Oct 2024
We are doing this for the third time. During the trip you enjoy the magical views of Amsterdam, a pleasant warm atmosphere, delicious food, funny comments from the captain. Cozy interior inside the boat and the toilet is clean. You really want to come back here again.

Best tour we did

Lloyd_F, Oct 2024
This was by far our favourite thing we did in Amsterdam! This cruise is amazing, unlimited booze, hot pizza and cold ice cream and the boat isnt too crowded. Trust me - this tour is a must!

Excellent cruise

Allan_Y, Sep 2024
Excellent cruise. Crew and staff were very friendly and helpful. Captain steering the boat and providing commentary was very skillful and knowledgeable. Good food and drinks.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Dear Allan, Thank you so much for this amazing review. We are so happy that our staff made the experience even more enjoyable for you. The food we provide is catered by professionals, for we aim at offering you the best! Have a wonderful day. Kind Regards, Lovers Canal Cruises.

Relaxing and informative

Sylvia_P, Aug 2024
Everything about the cruise is excellent, having food and drinks to enjoy makes it more special. I've done this cruise every time I come to Amsterdam.

Fun and fabulous!

Carolyn_G, Jul 2024
It was a lovely and fun way to experience Amsterdam's canals. The food and drink were great. A fantastic evening trip!

Beautiful view and boat

Anniken_S, Jul 2024
The trip was very nice. I had an amazing time on the boat with good company and good view. The gudie and the waiters wore nice. You can drink as much as you would like, that’s awesome! The boat was quiet and chill to ride. The pizza and icecream tasted good to.

Great trip for a great price!

Scott_H, Jun 2024
The captain was very entertaining, the pizza was delicious, and the beer was cold. What more could you ask for!

Very enjoyable

Olive_D, Jun 2024
The staff were lovely and plenty of drinks !! the pizza’s were not great but we had amazing weather and the whole experience more than made up for it ⭐️

Pizza for you

Coleen_J, Jun 2024
This was a very relaxing canal ride. If you are expecting to learn anything about the city it does not happen on this cruise. It’s just a ride through the canals. The pizza was good and so was the wine. Would recommend if just want something to eat and watch the sites.

Canal cruise

Mc8991, Jun 2024
Canal ride was great, pizza was cold and not very good. Service was good! Amsterdam has lots of history and a great place to visit.

Ok but very disappointing pizza and slow service

Kath_H, Jun 2024
Seeing all the buildings. The pizza was very cold and we wanted a drink top up whilst eating but there were not enough staff to serve drinks and pizza.

Memorable Experience

Sheri_M, May 2024
Memorable experience, great pizza the staff were really friendly and there was a good selection of wine. Also staff offer to take your photo which we thought was a nice touch.

Would not recommend.

Niamh_L, Apr 2024
The trip started with 3 drinks on a table booked for 5 - 2 beers and one Coke. For 2 adults and 3 kids that was not going to cut it. The waiting staff were very reluctant to give us Cokes for the 2 other kids. My husband basically had to get them himself. The pizza was cold and frankly awful. I booked this tour based on previous reviews that said the live commentary was great. This trip had an audio commentary that we had to ask for the headphones for half way though when it became apparent that none were going to be forthcoming. There was no water or soap in the toilet. On an average cruise lasting the same amount of time this might not be an issue but on one with children (ours were not the only ones) also serving food and drink this is not acceptable. I have made many trips to Amsterdam and done other canal cruises and this is the first time I have felt exploited as a tourist. My husband did speak to one of the ticket reps after but was basically just told to send an email to head office. 0/10 would not recommend.

Nice to see the sights at night

SJoy_G, Apr 2024
Very comfy boat with good viewing. Price was very affordable. Staff were polite and did their best to feed people on a boat. Drinks provided were great. Pizza was a let down as it was a touch short on toppings. Difficult to understand the commentary.

Nice canal cruise

Lucy_O, Apr 2024
Lovely cruise with pizza, ice cream & drinks. The boat could have been better organised with working toilets and sufficient glassware & cutlery. Would recommend

March cruise J&D - satisfied!

Jelica_C, Mar 2024
Everything was organized as mentioned in the itinerary. Boat driver was friendly, young people that were serving pizza, drinks and ice-cream were very pleasant and fast. There was enough drink for everyone (alcohol and non-alcoholic drinks). The weather in Amsterdam, in March, is risky.. since it could be a lot of rain, but our trip was very lucky with the weather, too.

Great

kat_m, Mar 2024
Great unlimited drinks for everyone. Chilled vibe and a little pizza. Good value for money. Soft drink, water yer wine and beer.

Great experience!

Beth_F, Mar 2024
Great pilot, crew, and service!! We would definitely recommend this riverboat ride! It's a great way to see the houses along the canal.

Enjoyable evening

Michael_C, Mar 2024
