I loved our guide Sabrina. She was very nice and funny and explained everything very well. The driver Ilja did a great job as well and sailed us trough the canals of Amsterdam. All in all a great experience for a trip to Amsterdam! Will definitely recommend to others! The company itself is great aswell. With WhatsApp service and fast and kind answers! 10/10

Excellent experience, the only downside was the inconvenience of having to wait an hour because the boat on our schedule did not pass. But then Noah, the tour guide, was very courteous and to apologize, in agreement with the company, we were offered unlimited drinks. All in all it was a good experience.

We have done a few canal cruises i Amsterdam over the last years and they are mostly very good....but the ones with Flagship are great. This time Esra was our host and it was great fun. Lots of fun facts and stories. We strongly recommend Flagships, and will ride with you next time
