Very nice cruise, very cosy and comfortable inside with comfortable sitting and table for each group/family, everything to be seen was clearly in sight. 1 hour indeed. The only thing, we did not pass in front of Anna Frank house.

I highly recommend taking this cruise. The views are fascinating, and with the guided commentary, it’s simply fantastic. The ship is clean and comfortable, and the staff are very friendly.

A nice tour through Amsterdam’s city center. The boat is comfortable and passes by several beautiful spots. You’ll definitely get to see plenty of the canal-side houses. One downside is that the audio guide with information and fun facts is entirely in American English, which makes all the Dutch names sound very strange and unclear.

An absolutely unmissable experience! My favorite part was discovering Amsterdam's unique architecture from the water, especially at sunset. Passing under historic bridges offers a magical perspective that you can't get on foot. The commentary was very informative, combining historical and cultural anecdotes. It's a peaceful and romantic interlude that allows you to appreciate the charm of the UNESCO-listed canals in complete serenity. I highly recommend it.

Taking a canal cruise is an absolute must in Amsterdam. The heated boat had plenty of space and you could easily choose were to sit. The commentary was really informative and the sights we passed while cruising were very interesting. I highly recommend this company for your canal cruise experience in Amsterdam.
