The time should allow for dark-of-night light effects so people could capture night photographs in the last leg before departure.

Well worth booking through Viator. The booking was smooth and went with no hiccups. The evening was nice - the boat decorated with candlelight and flowers. The host was very knowledgeable and funny. Well worth it.

This proved to be a very pleasant evening, the menu was excellent and was as good as you would expect in a good class restaurant. Our only concern was the slightly unorganized manner in which we queued and then were asked to board the boat. I would recommend this to all first time visitors to Amsterdam.

It would have been nice to have some commentary on the cruise.

To start with, nobody had any idea what was going on, the trip was to start with some wine in the Lounge. The only person in there was more interested in the two workers she was talking to, hence no wine; not even a hello. The temperature was about two degrees, and we froze waiting for them to figure out who, what, and where. The cruise started late and the crew was less than friendly. If I had the chance to do it again I would try another company.

Would have liked a little narrative on where we were and what we were seeing.

It was a very pleasant evening. The service and wine quality were good, but the food was poor.

The crew was professional and the boat trip took us to interesting places in Amsterdam. However, the food was not impressive.

Was nice to experience the canals of Amsterdam but value for money could've been improved by providing food of a better standard and bottles of wine on the table rather than having to wait on top-ups.

When we arrived at the dock, no-one seemed to have a clue what was going on and we were left in the VIP lounge which I would actually more accurately describe as a portakabin.
However, the major problem was that I had paid extra guaranteeing us a table for two and when we eventually got on the boat it was heavily overbooked and we were asked to share a table with another couple, on Valentines Day, or come back tomorrow. I was really annoyed but after some discussion, the other couple got their money back and the river cruise was actually really nice, even though the food was cold!
The cruise itself is interesting with nice commentary. However, the dinner was very poor. The waiters were unexperienced and did only speak in sentences of 1 word, 'wine', and the main course was cold. This really was a pity, else it would definitely rate higher in our opinion.

Nearly missed the cruise despite being 45 minutes early. Not one member of staff announced that the cruise was embarking and as a result we were not asked regarding our preference on the menu. Crew were very friendly which went some way to make up for the initial disorganization.

Food was only OK, all was pre-heated. Staff very nice. A little expensive for what we got.
