I was really unwell for this experience so unfortunately couldn't enjoy the wonderful treats, however my friend enjoyed them. The tea was unlimited and we were offered bubbly. The host and captain were so friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely take this experience again.

It was pleasant. The sandwiches were tasty as were the treats. A great chance to see the country. The tables were nicely decorated.

One of the favorite things we did in Amsterdam. Captain was very friendly, personable, and food was fabulous.

The food was scrumptious but we were hoping for some history of the netherlands. Our waitress asked what we'd like to see and we said everything, but then nothing was explained to us. The boat was nice but we had to look through the plastic part of the windows which made it hard to see things clearly and we couldn't get any good pictures.

Sandra and the Skipper made sure I was enjoying myself. A wonderful, peaceful cruise on the canals. The high tea was spectacular.

What a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Amsterdam!! Gorgeous boat ride through the beautiful canals of Amsterdam. Captain and crew were fantastic. Afternoon tea was delicious and generous. Highly recommend! I will definitely do this again! I've already recommended it to several friends, as well as my hotel staff.

Excellent lunch for high tea
Smooth ride
The one thing to take the review to the next level would be if there was a commentary on what we were seeing. Points of attraction, history of the canals, something about the house boats etc.

Our trip with Martin was great! Very funny and informative. We were with one other couple on a smaller intimate boat.

I had a great experience on this cruise with high tea. First of all, the captain was very nice. He really seem like he enjoyed his job. The cruise was about an hour and a half and it took us on three different rings around the canal system in Amsterdam, along with the part of the Amstel river. The tea and cakes and sandwiches were all very good. I really enjoyed that. It was a smaller boat and not crowded at all.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Dear Jerome, thank you for your kind review. We will forwards the compliments to the crew. best regards, Erik
