I visited the Johan Cruyff Stadium with my 11-year-old grandson, who is crazy about soccer. He was very impressed! The tour is solid, the stadium is very well maintained, and the documentation with lots of photos is very informative. Afterwards, we naturally bought a Johan Cruyff soccer outfit in the well-stocked fan shop.

A fantastic tour. You see all sorts of things, such as the locker room, press room, etc. A real highlight is getting to sit in Ajax's dugout. There is a staff member there taking a nice photo, a great souvenir of the stadium tour. Finally, you see all the trophies Ajax has won, which is very impressive. In short, we had a great time.

In one word, it was amazing—what an experience. I loved everything, but the locker room was definitely the best part. A fantastic experience.

The visit to the Johan Cruijff ArenA stadium was interesting. It was cool to get a look inside the players' locker rooms. Standing right by the pitch surrounded by the towering stands is impressive. What must it be like when it's completely packed with fans! The canal cruise itself was nice; in an hour's time you get a good impression of the area around the canals. The commentary—a recorded tape exclusively in English—didn't add any value, which is a shame, because it was unintelligible. On top of that, for anyone who doesn't understand English, it was a letdown. The captain said a few words himself, exclusively in Dutch, and was also difficult to understand. In my opinion, this was annoying for the German- and English-speakers on board too. Room for improvement.
