Nice to be on the canals.

Heather_C, Jul 2024
Unpleasant check in staff, very busy location. Basic recorded information. Pleasant time on water. Best captain of all canal cruises. Loved Haarlem overall. Nice to see windmills.

Watered down cruise!

Getting off. It was difficult to understand the person who was speaking, it was boring monotone difficult to understand his accent & Im a veteran ESL teacher and often the things he mentioned we had passed or they were just not visible.

Lovely boat trip .
