- F9RJalexn0 contributionsWould totally do it againIt was a fun trip and we learned so much about Amsterdam while cruising and sipping on the nice rose. They have umbrellas so it was not too sunny but mostly we were in the shade of the trees and buildings around.Written July 24, 2024

- G9301PSjoshuas0 contributionsWell worth the moneyReally happy with this experience. The guide was super friendly and knowledgeable. It lasted around an hour maybe slightly longer and was well worth the moneyWritten July 23, 2024
- krP2599TB0 contributionsDid not greet/acknowledge customersSo the girl running the Captian Jacks tour beside us was hustling and I wish I’d have booked that one. My bad that I didn’t clue in onboard bar didn’t means includes the drink but they were very reasonable at $5eu each . The tour itself was ok (female) …I think we got off to a bad start because the old man driving the boat went over to a group of young girls and invited them in the boat at exactly 9pm. The rest of us just stood there and he didn’t acknowledge any of us! The captain jacks girl came back over and explained the rest of us could board. Gee. Thanks captain. We all paid but the older of us might have been inclined to tip..nobody did. And certainly not the nice young girls from Ireland who got primo sitting.Written July 22, 2024
- Daydream426775748590 contributionsGreat TourHad to go on a canal tour for me and my friends first time in amsterdam. The charter captain was named felix and was incredibly friendly, informative and polite, aswell as our other tour guide on the boat. The tour was incredibly nice and showed great parts of amsterdam with context behind certain locations.Written July 22, 2024

- 37carlync0 contributionsJust okayThe tour guide and boat captain insisted on reprimanding our group to keep quiet throughout the tour, they weren’t even speaking or giving any information about the surroundsWritten July 21, 2024

- Suiryu6660 contributionsSanne & Jules Are GoldWe went on a flagship cruise which was included in a deal to visit the Heineken museum. The canal tour was first class and the guides Sanne & Jules were very interesting and informative. We would never have learned the history and culture if not for the talented guides. Thank you so much!Written July 20, 2024
- 574joycem0 contributionsGreat evening ride on the Amsterdam CanalsOne hour cruise was excellent. We left at 9:15 and even when we came back an hour later, it still wasn’t really dark. But there were lights on the canal bridges and other buildings. Live guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. Something for guests to consider is “ find the location” dock well before loading time. Also we picked a restaurant we thought was close to the dock and we were way off. GPS went nuts trying to get us to the Canal Cruise Dock. Find the location, then pick a restaurant. Also if you want to call an UBER— cars can’t come to the dock, so we had to walk to Barbizon Hotel where our driver could pick us up. So an Uber can’t deliver you directly to the Canal Cruise or pick you up there either. Many venues in Amsterdam are like this which is good to know if you have limited mobility. Plenty of alcohol for purchaseWritten July 20, 2024

This would have probably been much more fun as a couple or with a friend, but I had hoped to get an open air tour through the canals with commentary and this wasn’t that. The boat was nice, a little cheese and wine made it better. The hosts were lovely. My disappointment was being in an enclosed space to “see” the canals from that vantage point. The commentary was basic. More of a party boat. Not for those interested in history, architecture, or actually seeing much.
That said, I can not emphasize enough that the host worked hard to make everyone, including me, feel welcome.

The guides were very nice, funny and knowledgeable. It was a little difficult finding the correct place to meet the boat, and there were more people on the tour than I would’ve hoped for, but it was a fun experience.

We were only in Amsterdam for the evening and the cruise was a great way to see the city and learn some history at the same time. Our tour guides were friendly, fun, and knowledgeable. Definitely worth the cost of the ticket. I would do this cruise again the next time I’m in Amsterdam!

Very nice way of seeing Amsterdam. Some say it is the only way to see Amsterdam. Canal sightseeing in Amsterdam is not a recommendation, it is a must do, if it is the first time.

The tour was postponed an hour due to the weather, but they informed us about that an hour before start.
It was a cosy and informative trip which we enjoyed a lot. Can be recommended.

This was an excellent cruise. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our 10 yo liked the cheese and we enjoyed the drinks. It was very informative and funny. This is something not to miss.
Pro-tip: book directly through their website to save a few euros. Also, if you book earlier in the day, they offer discounted rates.

I'm thinking about booking a cruise on Thursday, 9/8. It's predicted it will be raining. Does the boat have a covered roof in case it rains?
