It was a great and fun experience for our family. The host was funny and informative. Favorite part was the cruise and the big splash entering the water!

It was a great experience to be in an amfibi-vehicle. 1/2 hour as a bus through the streets of Rotterdam, 1/2 hour as a boat through the harbour. Especially the man who was the tour-guide (Ger?) made that it was something that me and my 3 friends will never forget. 2 points of attention: - the windows in the back are covered with stickers, so there is a bad view there, - we were standing still for several minutes because of the traffic-lights.

The experience was great, weather wasn't the best but the tour guide cracked some good jokes and we got the right ambience inside the bus, went around the city harbor (4 stars, I wish that part would have been a bit deeper into the city) and then we splashed into the water, floating like a boat, what a great ride!

A very enjoyable and entertaining bus/boat tour. The best outing I've had in years. If you're going to Rotterdam or the surrounding area, this is a must-do.

It was a wonderful trip, with a wonderful guide who had a great sense of humor; we heard lots of interesting facts about the city’s history from him. The captain did a fantastic job driving the bus—both on land and on water.

Ride an amphibious vehicle that shifts from city streets into the water, combining a one-hour route with live narration for a view of the city.

Hear the story of the city from a guide who speaks English and Dutch, with an audio system on board that offers commentary in several other languages.

Glide past quays, bridges, and waterfront districts, so you can watch docks, tall buildings, and city life unfold on the water around you.
