Tolle Tour - It was a very nice tour. And the captain Jeroen was very nice and gave exciting information in addition to the audio guide. We had a lot of fun.

Best Canal Tour In Amsterdam - I just happened to see one of these boats about to leave so, on a whim, I jumped on. I loved every minute of this. The commentary was excellent. I learned so much about Amsterdam. The boat was really comfortable. It was a beautiful day so the roof was opened. Couldn't fault it. I didn't have any euros on me so, unfortunately I couldn't leave a trip for the skipper so hope this review makes up for that.

Lovely way to see the city - Great tour - really interesting way to learn about Amsterdam and the guide was very knowledgeable. Boat is electric too so it was quiet enough to hear what was being said. Would highly recommend

Lovely way to see the city and take a break from walking! - What a lovely way to spend 60-75 min (ish). After so much walking OVER the canals and through the city, it was a nice respite to enjoy a quiet boat tour of the canals. Our ship's captain was very funny and gave us a lot of info about the surroundings, and the boat was comfortable (covered in the winter cold!) so we were able to just sit and enjoy our surroundings.

Just OK. Having to... - Just OK. Having to translate everything to four languages really slowed things down. A lot of canned commentary as well.

Naja - Didn't meet our expectations. Not an audio guide, but loudspeaker announcement in several languages, as we also understand English and Dutch , quite annoying. Too bad about the time. Was also not 1h15' but exactly 1h.

Low point of our trip to Amsterdam... - What a disappointment! What was supposed to be one of the highlights of our visit to Amsterdam was a big disappointment. The weather was beautiful though. We expected a nice cruise with explanations from the skipper and anecdotes about the properties you sail past. None of that, just a standard tape with very short explanations, and that in 7 languages... We were clearly not the only ones who were disappointed, the bored faces of the other passengers spoke volumes.... A word of advice: find another cruise line for a cruise!

Unresponsive - Our flight got delayed and hiccup on transportation when we landed thus missed our boat cruise. I couldn't call as we're on air. I was able to chat with a representative when I got to Amsterdam but got cut off. When I tried again, there was no response. It is disappointing that no one would help nor at least be considerate for unforseen events. I couldn't reschedule as our time was very limited but it would have been comforting to be given credit, as this is not our first time using viator. It was a dissappointing experience.
