Just a nice canal tour. - Nice, simple experience. Didn't really want to get involved with the food/drink options on the boats, This was just a nice open boat that seated about 10-12 people. Knowledgeable guide who explained most everything he was asked about. Pleasant way to see the city.

Super fun sailing with Ruud - What a nice tour we had with Ruud! He made us look at Amsterdam very differently and talked about the points along the way with pleasure and humour. Very different than on such a large impersonal cruise. Recommended!
