Cruise like a local Amsterdam —Small-group, Big adventure!

We had Captain Dave himself for the trip, and he was an excellent guide. Very charismatic, and highly knowledgable on Amsterdam (he grew up not far from where the cruise starts). He gave us lots of information on the history of Amsterdam, showed us historical maps for reference, and took us to several viewpoints to show us how things used to be and how they have changed. Very intimate and personal experience that was a far cry from the other tour outfits we saw- highly recommend!

captain daves ride was a great inroduction to amsterdam friendly and knowledgeable his personality was great as was his knowledge of history

Our guide was Roman, he’s was great. He asked what we preferred to see, gave us information about the history of Amsterdam. I highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic afternoon cruising the canals. Capt Gus was great. Thanks for a memorable trip and lots of local knowledge.

Captain Dave was a terrific guide—sharing stories about the history of Amsterdam, engaging information about sites, personal anecdotes about growing up there, and gave us a choice of 3 different tours—the group chose one other tours didn’t offer. And a beautiful boat, lovely. Really worth the money.

Captain Anna led or 90 minute tour ans made it extremely interesting, fun, fact-filled and a unique way to see the various canals and the buildings that line them in the historic city center.

Great tour. Drinks included and they bring you where they want to go compared to a pre-planned route. Just book it now!

Beautiful boat with gorgeous views! Skipper Gus was awesome! He was funny and filled with information and made sure everyone was having a great time. Would highly recommend!

Excellent way to see the sights.
‘Captain Anna’ was brilliant and explained everywhere very well.
The size of group was just right too.
Definitely will use them again when we next visit.

This was a bit of a disappointment. The captain, Anna, was nice and personable with excellent English; however, the quality of the audio microphone and/or receiver(s) was definitely lacking. My unit, as well as my husband’s, kept cutting out making it very difficult to understand what was being said by the captain. Also, while the boat was beautiful to look at and has an interesting history, in reality it does not offer the visibility of the larger many glassed windows tour boats or the smaller open boats. We were in the aft section behind a bulkhead so our forward view was obstructed. Also, we did not see several of the sites that were advertised or if we did, I did not know it because of the audio problems … for example, the Red Light District, the Zoo, the Narrow Bridge were all sites that I looked forward to seeing and did not. We did see the Ann Frank house and the Tiny House. However since the audio was so poor, I did not realize that we were coming up on the Ann Frank house until after we had passed it. Since the tickets for this excursion were over twice as much as other popular options, I would not recommend it.

The cruise was so much fun - personal attention, beverages and snacks and great information on the canals of Amsterdam, history and the personality of our guide was great. Not to mention the historic nature of the boat.

Excellent and I so appreciated Roman. He was a superb guide and captain. He was knowledgeable, personable and engaging.

This was a great tour & Roman was an amazing captain and host! Definitely recommend this tour. The history of the boat alone makes it worth it! Smaller group which was so nice compared to the big tours that become impersonal

Roman was the captain of this most beautiful boat. There were only 9 of us on board. It was very comfortable. You could sit outside or inside with lap blankets if necessary. Roman had drawings, maps and many points of interest along the 1 1/2-hour tour. We were also offered our choice of chardonnay, rose, and red wine. There was also a selection of local beers, soft drinks and water. The boat has an electric motor so it was very quiet. I would highly recommend this canal cruise!

Roman was our captain and wasso welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. We were very comfortable and the boat being slightly smaller meant we went down the smaller canals also. Unlimited drinks, nibbles and fun! Highly recommended

Captain Dave was great! Would highly recommend for the personal touch in seeing Amsterdam from a different perspective. Captain Dave was gracious, hospitable, and provided great local color to our trip!

Had a lovely cruise on 18th September 2023, we had Captain Anna rather than Dave who was our guide, she was very personable and informative.

Went round the Prinsengracht and back, took around 90 minutes. It was very nice and relaxed, a good way to see some of the sights - we went under the Magere, past the Westerkerk, Anne Frank's house, and one of Amsterdam's smallest houses! Very much recommend this company for a small group tour (there were only 12 people on the boat as it's a very small boat including us). We also learned the history of Amsterdam and how they dammed the river, as well as why some of the buildings are sinking and the steps taken to address this.

Very much recommend booking this boat tour.
