I loved everything! All the employees were so helpful and sure made the experience better!! All the rooms were super fun with different themes to explore. Also, the macha and hot chocolate we got from the cafe were phenomenal, a bit sweet for our tast but nothing short from amazing. It's definitely a must see if one is visiting Amsterdam.

Thanks to the captain, the canal tour was very informative and fun. We had a great time. Unfortunately it was a bit rainy, but we stayed dry thanks to the glass roof. We learned a lot and got some tips for our stay in Amsterdam.
