Highly Recommend! - Of all the ways to spend time in Amsterdam, I cannot recommend this 1 hour tour enough!!! My husband and I got the 2-Drinks Included Tier of tickets and had a Heineken on the canal. Jasmine's hospitality and knowledge of the city made our time in Amsterdam much, much better. We loved the tour!

Canal cruise Amsterdam - This was an open boat which I think would be better than closed in for taking photos. The crew were very knowledgeable and had a good amount of humour.

Meh👎 - We had a very nice boat trip, but there was absolutely zero "guiding". Boat seemed to be more about the free drinks than actually learning about the city.

No show - At the meeting place 15 minutes early. Waited until 15 minutes after. No boat showed up. Took my money without providing service. That's called stealing.
