We compared several canal cruises in Amsterdam and honestly, some companies charge almost double for exactly the same experience. This cruise was by far the best value for money and ended up being our favorite. The boat was covered, which was great, and there was also a toilet on board. The cruise lasted about an hour and took us through the canals while providing interesting information about the city. The captain stopped at important landmarks, so there was plenty of time to enjoy the views and take photos. There was lots of space on board, and some seating areas even had tables, which made it feel a bit like sitting in a cozy restaurant while cruising through Amsterdam. It was self-catering, meaning you couldn't buy drinks on board, but that's also one of the reasons why the price was so reasonable. We paid only €15 per person, and online tickets were available for as little as €13. I highly recommend this cruise. One of the worst things when traveling is falling into tourist traps, but this company was friendly, honest, and offered an excellent experience at a fair price. The views were absolutely beautiful and it was one of the highlights of our trip.

I really enjoyed the canal cruise! What I appreciated the most was that there wasn’t an overload of information, so I could simply relax and enjoy the beautiful views of the city. I also noticed right away that the windows were perfectly clean, which made a huge difference. My first canal cruise experience was during the Light Festival with another company, and unfortunately the windows were so dirty that I could barely see anything outside. This time, the view was crystal clear, and it made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. I would definitely recommend this cruise to others!

Cruising the canals of Amsterdam was simply an incredible experience. Getting to know this historic and art-filled city is something we should all do at least once in our lives. Looking beyond the channels I could reflect on the importance of feeling this, being here and being able to know all this is something unforgettable for me. I will definitely come back more often, and I will do the same tour through the headout! Thank you very much.

Comfortable ride, enjoyed the sights. The length of the cruise was just right. We would have liked more commentary - we did get some information about what we passed, but there were several lulls in the commentary.. The commentary we did have was difficult to understand for part of our group seated closer to the back.

The show and the individual small rooms make the experience even more unique and amazing. How the show Switches from one painting to another was thrilling and always different. It was absolutely breathtaking. Can only say would do it again and again and again.

Amsterdam in a nutshell. The Heren and Prinsengracht rival each other in originality and beauty. A kiss at the Maagdenbrug. A majestic cruise ship! Strongholds of Dutch ingenuity: the Maritime Museum, the Conservatory, and the Public Library. Thank you, Captain.
