This was our 3rd trip to Amsterdam and the best canal boat trip ever. The explanations were excellent. Our grandsons had a grand time, too.

Easy to locate, accepted voucher no problem. Trip was worth taking and on-board tourist information was interesting.

The canal trip was very good and informative without being too long-winded in all 4 languages. There were no long lines or waiting times and pre-purchasing our tickets through your website saved both money and time. This trip is definitely a must do when visiting in Amsterdam!

It's an absolute must to take the canal tour early in your stay in Amsterdam. No doubt about it.

We enjoyed this, however, we did it the first day we were in Amsterdam and we were both so tired from jet lag, so I'm afraid we didn't get as much enjoyment as we had hoped. The other small criticism was that it would have been nice to have an earphone system so we could just have listened to the commentary in English rather than switching back and forth.

It was nice to be able to cruise leisurely around Amsterdam, taking in some of the sights. The timing of our trip just before sunset gave us the best of day and night. Our captain was very friendly, the audio guide was great although a little tedious listening through 4 languages.

I went with my husband and my teenage daughter on this cruise. We had a lot of fun and it didn't seem too long or too short! It's a great way to see the major sites and get a little bit of history.

Great tour. Saw several attractions and it gave me the lay of the land. I was better able to go back and find places at a later time.

Easy to find where the trip goes from! Smooth ride, we sat in the back so can't comment on the commentary. Well worth the money!

There are a number of cruise boat companies offering different types of cruises in Amsterdam. Depending on your preference and the dates and length of your stay, I would suggest taking at least one. This was only an overnight stop this trip, so I opted for just a general tour to give my companion an overview of the city. You can generally buy tickets for these cruises right at the pier except for some of the dinner and specialty cruises as there are cruises departing constantly. I prefer to prepay, however, as it is more convenient for me.

I found this to be a perfect beginning to a wonderful trip in Amsterdam. It's beautiful in the evening when all the bridges are lit. I definitely suggest doing this on your first day of arrival, because it's relaxing and enjoyable.
