We enjoyed our evening cruise. We were able to catch the sunset and see some of the beautifully lit canals in the evening. Our boat driver provided some extra commentary which was great. Very fun! The boat was enclosed and warm, but you could open the windows to get some great photos. Would definitely recommend this boat ride.

Very nice cruise, very cosy and comfortable inside with comfortable sitting and table for each group/family, everything to be seen was clearly in sight. 1 hour indeed. The only thing, we did not pass in front of Anna Frank house.

I highly recommend taking this cruise. The views are fascinating, and with the guided commentary, it’s simply fantastic. The ship is clean and comfortable, and the staff are very friendly.

Super Captain! Nice and interesting stories about Amsterdam, everything in English with optional audio in every language via WLAN on the phone. English was however perfect for me.

The captain quickly found a solution on a single canal being closed by offering a detour while acting as a guide explaining the newer sites. Easy to book and good price.

    Finding the boat was no problem. An hour on Amsterdam’s canals is plenty of time. It’s great to see Amsterdam from a different perspective and to get a unique view of certain sights. A guide is available on the boat in many languages. The translation is there and works, but personally I think it’s lacking. Between the points the narrator discusses, the captain adds interesting stories in English that I think should be included in the translation. Overall, it’s a nice tour that I would recommend.

    A nice tour through Amsterdam’s city center. The boat is comfortable and passes by several beautiful spots. You’ll definitely get to see plenty of the canal-side houses. One downside is that the audio guide with information and fun facts is entirely in American English, which makes all the Dutch names sound very strange and unclear.
