Nice comfy boat going through the old part of the city near the red light district not the inner canals near the city Centre. Crew were great and explained all about the city.

We enjoyed our evening Amsterdam canal cruise. The crew were well informed historically, sharing fascinating tidbits of how Amsterdam came to be in a humorous way. Plenty of libations. Gorgeous route sneaking our way through the water by evening light. Go for it- you will like this cruise.

Dear Tammy,
What a wonderful review—thank you for taking the time to share your experience!
We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your evening cruise through Amsterdam's canals. There's something truly special about seeing the city in the evening light, and we're glad our crew's mix of history, local stories, and humour helped make the experience even more memorable.

Friendly, knowledgeable team; kids enjoyed sitting in the front and we all had a great time. Smaller group size was nice.

Our tour guide was wonderful! He was very knowledgeable about the city and answered all our questions.

We went during December so we were only 4 people in our session. It felt very private. Our guide Thomas was very knowledgable and the captain was also nice. Because it's winter the boat was covered with clear windows so you can see the view from every seat without being too cold. If you have some free time during your stay in Amsterdam, def recommend

Our guide was super, and the boat driver very chatty and funny, the grup on the boat was small so it was rather private, we all got along very well and the trip was totally worth the money. Absolutely loved it!
