    Clean and punctual boat. Friendly staff speaking different languages... but not French. At the start of the tour, headsets are provided and you can either use the boat's audioguide (including a French version) or use your own cell phone with a Qr code. The tour lasts an hour and a half and covers a good part of the city center. The landing stage is just opposite the heinecken museum. I recommend this tour. A version with lunch is also available.

    A very exciting and above all entertaining tour. And the cheapest one we have found. Our skipper was a real comedy talent. Anytime again :0)

    Everything was fine on the boat. In Amsterdam, however, I didn't like the fact that the cyclists all seemed to ride quite recklessly through the crowds. You always have to expect to be knocked down everywhere except on the water. It's really stressful, especially with children. Once in Amsterdam is enough!
