The night tour of Amsterdam by boat was truly spectacular. The guide on the boat gave a comprehensive explanation of the history and present of Amsterdam I would recommend using a microphone as the guide could not be heard very well at the back of the boat where we were seated. The boat was closed, not open as it said on the website where we booked the tour. I would definitely recommend a night tour.

This walking tour in Amsterdam was the absolute highlight of my vacation in Niederland. We walked through the less touristy parts of the city and was taken through inside alleys - quiet and authentic. Everything is well organized from the boat hopp on hopp off to the public transport.

Fun experience. Tour with a few people at sunset. An alternative tour of the canals from the previous tour taken several years ago with another company starting from Amsterdam Centraal. Young staff and fun in explanations, much better than the tours with a registered guide (previous experience). It must be said that perhaps it would have been better to have had a little more attention in the highlights to be photographed (example the canal with 7 bridges).

    The day I had a boat tour was the first day of Sail Amsterdam 2025 and it was very impressive. Our guide was charming and all the staff were excellent. It was a brilliant experience.
