The boats are very punctual. It was very pretty, and we enjoyed the trip. It's a good way to get around to the different parts of Amsterdam.

This is a very good way to see all the sights.

This was definitely a good idea. You get a good view of the canals, and get pretty close to all the main attractions.

Excellent value. We would have done another trip if time had permitted. I will recommend it to anyone coming over to Amsterdam. A lovely and relaxing way to see the sights. EXCELLENT!

It was very interesting, and you really can appreciate Amsterdam from this trip. I liked it very much, and I think it is really worth doing.

Walking Amsterdam is the best way to get a feel for the city, but the canal boat is an excellent supplement.

Gives you a great feel for Amsterdam without being in the 'tush' of things.

The early boats were fine, but as the day wore on, the boats were late and packed. At the end of the day, we ended up close enough to our hotel to walk instead of waiting for the boat that would have taken us right across the street from the hotel. We noticed when we got there that we beat the jam packed boat by ten minutes!

The lines are extra long; sometimes we had to wait for a second or even third boat. When traveling with children that can be problematic. We had to wait for almost 2 hours just to catch a canal bus, due to the long lines.

Bit of confusion on some of the terminals, there were other travellers in the same situation.

Although advertised to run every 30 minutes or so, after our first stop, we were told the return boat wouldn't arrive for one hour. We were then directed to walk across to another stop, which I could not find. Wound up walking to the location I wanted to go, and didn't use the boat again.

I only used it once. It's a nice idea, but I ended up walking to see as many sites as possible. The tram was actually the better way to go. Unfortunately the canal buses stop at 6pm.
