  • We have visited last summer, it was nice trip and one must do it if they are in Amsterdam. Such an amazing tour around the Amsterdam’s canals with boat tour cruise. They take as almost everywhere the highlighted places to see in Amsterdam. They have audio guide in different languages that you can choose. Very nice boat crew! You will have different experience if u travel in the day time and if u travel in the night. we booked in the evening so we were very lucky to see the city in daylight and in the night along with the sunset. it was perfect weather when we visited there. only parking issue, we have to be lucky to get parking near by the cruse. its worth paying for the cruse.
  • Such an amazing tour around the Amsterdam’s canals with this boat tour cruise🥰 The cruise showed us around the highlighted places to see in Amsterdam. Multiple languages were available to understand the guide. Very nice boat crew! I recommend. Ps.: sorry for low pictures quality, it was raining and we had to keep the windows closed😅
  • I highly recommend taking one of these at night. It can be a little chilly, but as long as you dress appropriately you will be fine and comfortable. I caught one close to the RL district and it took us all throughout the canals of Amsterdam. I paid the extra for drinks on the cruise and I will say it's definitely worth it. The drinks are self serve, so you definitely get your money's worth, if not more. So I would definitely recommend paying the extra for drinks.
  • Decent Canal Cruise. Amsterdam is a beautiful city but I do feel if they had a live tour guide it would have been much more engaging than the prerecorded messages. We looked at many interesting places though and it felt thorough despite only being on the 75minute tour.
  • It is a must do. We arranged to take the boat on January at 17:00 and I do believe it was the perfect time. Enough light in the beginning of the route and a bit dark after 30-40min to see the lights in the canals! Do reserve online to avoid extra charges
