Harko and Jorge were great guides, they made it interesting and entertaining and shared a lot of information about Amsterdam, the grachten, buildings and history. The boat was cozy and beautiful, it was a perfect trip!

We had a fun a group of Irish friends join the canal cruise, kept it lively and entertaining! It rained for most of our trip. We were thankfully provided umbrellas and the unlimited beverages package kept up morale. Unfortunately, we didn't receive much context for where we went and the umbrellas blocked much of the view (because driver needed to see). Still such a different experience and if you have good weather during your trip to Amsterdam we highly recommend!!

Had an amazing time on the Amsterdam canal boat trip! The views were absolutely stunning, especially with the historic buildings reflecting on the water. The guide shared really interesting stories along the way. It was the perfect way to experience the city from a different perspective.

This tour was fantastic! I’ve done it a few times already, but this one was truly the best so far. Our guides, Luke and Laurence, were amazing – so much fun and full of great energy. We had a wonderful time and learned so many interesting things along the way.

Jack was incredible! Friendly, funny, knowledgeable and a perfect host. And someones stayed on the phone with us for fifteen minutes to guide to the pier when we were confused. We had a great time.
