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.

Such a fun and relaxing cruise-a great way to enjoy Amsterdam from the water. Alexia was a fantastic guide/bartender, and Fons was the best captain! He even gave our group a wonderful dinner recommendation for afterwards. I highly recommend this cruise!
