    Was a good boat tour for the cheap price. Wasn't an hour, was closer to 40 mins. Saw a decent amount of things. I am not sure we ever passed the Anne Frank house as advertised, and if we did the audio guide did not point it out like it did the other attractions.

    Canal experience was really good. Only suggestion to display start time of journey. So that we can plan to be stay on time. Instead of waiting for long time.

    Frank/Frankie/Harry potter was an excelent driver and tour guide. The meeting area was easy to find at the back of the station (on the water side) bus was speedy clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend booking.

    Everything was fine on the boat. In Amsterdam, however, I didn't like the fact that the cyclists all seemed to ride quite recklessly through the crowds. You always have to expect to be knocked down everywhere except on the water. It's really stressful, especially with children. Once in Amsterdam is enough!

    Nice tour, commentary in English, Dutch and German. Covered boats with an open space at the back. Not too crowded. Nice way of seeing a different perspective on Amsterdam.
