We thoroughly enjoyed our one hour Utrecht canal tour. It was a perfect sunny Autumn afternoon...Utrecht couldn't have looked more beautiful. Our guide Mick was so warm and welcoming, with a great sense of humour and excellent knowledge of the history of this city. This tour was the perfect way to explore this different neighbourhoods around the canal. We are very pleased to give this tour our highest recommendation!

We had the boat to ourselves and were able to chat at length with our guide. Such a smooth, quiet, peaceful, and educational boat tour. The price was more than adequate. Sun or rain, I guarantee you'll enjoy this experience

This young man was very knowledgeable about Utrecht and was able to give us a lot of information. He was very friendly and accommodating. I would plan a tour with you again anytime.

An incredible tour with an excellent guide. We took the tour in the late afternoon; it started right on time at 4:00 p.m. We had a wonderful time as the guide told us about the city, its canals, and local customs. I’d recommend it in a heartbeat—it was worth every penny.

Very good boat driver, talked about historic things, he could have talked louder though it was sometimes hard to hear. Our 7 year old son got to drive the boat that was fun

Food is not included, so plan any snacks before or after your time on the boat.
