Impromptu but was really nice!! - Great experience and storytelling with Sam and Richie. They were pleasant and particularly warm towards our kids. We had a birthday lady on our cruise, and they took time to celebrate her.

- Excellent walk POR the canals DE Amsterdam. It was beautiful to see the city from the perspective of the boat, especially with a local guide like Floris, who was giving us interesting information, with sympathy and sense of humor. Highly recommended.

Best boat cruise in Amsterdam - We spent a few night in Amsterdam and took a few boat cruises with different comapnies, which are an amazing way to see the city. This cruise was without doubt the best. Our guide deejay (or DJ) was so entertaining and informative, he clearly enjoys what he does. I would recommend Boatamsterdam.com. If you're visiting Amsterdam you must do at least one boat cruise (I would advise one per day...take it easy for an hour), and if you're only going to do it once do it with boatamsterdam.com
