I had a wonderful experience on this canal cruise in Amsterdam. The tour was very enjoyable and a great way to see the city from a different perspective. I especially liked that it took us along the most iconic canals and that they provided headphones with an audio guide, as it made the tour much more interesting and easier to follow while we took in the most important sights. It was definitely a relaxing experience and highly recommended for anyone visiting Amsterdam.

An exciting and interesting cruise. The captain was very friendly and great at entertaining the passengers. The boat handled the water beautifully, and the route was long enough. You get to see some very picturesque views.

We enjoyed our evening cruise. We were able to catch the sunset and see some of the beautifully lit canals in the evening. Our boat driver provided some extra commentary which was great. Very fun! The boat was enclosed and warm, but you could open the windows to get some great photos. Would definitely recommend this boat ride.

It was King’s Day, but even so, the boat wasn’t too crowded; we were even able to board an earlier one than planned, and the commentary was in French, which made it very interesting for us and our granddaughters. It’s another way to explore Amsterdam. We really enjoyed it.

The skipper provided a lot more information than the audio guide, which didn't always work; the canal tour was nice, though I had expected it to take place entirely in the innermost canals

The most enjoyable thing about our cruise was the captain / guide / narrator. He added much to the canned audio narration, particularly his local knowledge and his sense of humor.
