Some confusion on the pier. Cspt was very nice with the others. Nice safe ride. Great views. They even had a jazz band to listen with booze for sale.

When we arrived at the place we were told on the booking form we were advised that the covered canal cruise wasn't running but we were accepted on the open canal boat instead which was enjoyable. The skipper was lovely and told us some interesting information about Amsterdam and pointed out some important landmarks.
If that boat had been full I am not sure what would have happened. Also I would like to know why we were able to book on the tour if it wasn't running!

Dear Melanie,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed the open canal cruise and that the skipper provided interesting insights about Amsterdam.
We sincerely apologize for the confusion regarding your booking for the covered boat. In some cases, due to weather conditions or operational adjustments, we may need to switch to an open boat at the last moment. We understand this can be inconvenient, and we appreciate your flexibility.
We’re glad you were able to join the tour and enjoy the experience. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us at eline@kinboat.com or by phone at 020 – 261 34 66.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!

We booked cruise on 28th of April which is next day of Kings day. My group and I waited 45min on the location given to us but boat and staff didn’t turned up.
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced on the 28th of April. We fully understand how frustrating it must have been to wait for 45 minutes without the boat or staff arriving. This is certainly not the standard of service we strive to provide, especially after a busy day like King's Day.
We would like to resolve this matter and understand exactly what went wrong. Please contact us directly at eline@kinboat.com or via phone at 020 – 261 34 66 so that we can investigate the issue further and offer you a suitable solution.
Once again, we deeply regret the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. We are committed to making things right and hope to restore your trust in our service.
