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!

The boat was almost empty and because of that the cruise had more of a charm. My favorite part was the Herengracht. And that’s why i loved the cruise.

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.

Spend 60 to 90 minutes cruising through Amsterdam’s iconic canals, taking in landmarks such as the Anne Frank House and Skinny Bridge along the way.

Hop on at Centraal Station, Anne Frank House, or Rijksmuseum—three well-known, centrally located boarding points perfect for flexible sightseeing.

Stay cozy and dry on a glass-top roof boat while enjoying sweeping views of Amsterdam’s picturesque canals and famous landmarks from every seat.

Enjoy informative commentary in your language, thanks to a multilingual audio guide, making the canal cruise accessible and informative for all visitors.

Upgrade for live English commentary with cultural insights. If it gets chilly, heated seats and warm blankets keep you comfortable throughout.

The advantage went straight to the people sitting by the windows .people who were aisle sitter like me were not able to see most of the buildings and bridges announced by the boat broadcast or by the Captain. Next time I will book an open boat canal tour. Really very disappointing experience.
