CoupleVerified bookingAug 20255/5Lawrence and the best Frysian captain were are perfect hosts in a beatiful luxurious bought yesterday in SAIL Amsterdam. What an amazing amount of beatiful big sailing boats and myriads small and big boats as well. Our captain navigated us very carefully among all of them. While Lawrence was giving info on the boats but also history tips over AMS, with a tone of humour. We enjoyed the drinks on board and the great company of the other passagers as well. We will for sure recomend the crew!!!!👏👏👏👏👏MM.c.m. Schouten
GroupVerified bookingAug 20254/5Huge fun experience to sail past all the ships. Only the check-in was a drama. You get a time, arrive on time only to have to wait an hour before you could board at the reserved time. A huge queue as a result. And no explanation. I had the idea that the staff didn't have it under control either. No complaints about the care on board.RRudolf B
SoloVerified bookingAug 20254/5Good hosts and pleasant cruise had. However, I expected us to sail through the ice port, i.e. past the sailing ships. Still, had a lot of fun.MMarina K
