A last minute booking and it was a great decision! The boat was warm and comfortable, plentiful drinks and our captain and host were funny, knowledgeable and interesting. It was a beautiful way to see the festival of lights and lean some history. Highly recommended!
Not a great experience! There was a power outage across Amsterdam for two or three hours before our trip. No trams were working during this period and the city came to a standstill. We couldn't even get back to our hotel, let alone get to the pick-up point for the canal cruise. One of our party (of eight) has mobility issues and we would have needed a taxi (or two) to get to the start point - but none were available. We tried to get in contact with the organisers but this was impossible. So we were unable to take part on the trip, we have no idea if it was good or bad (or if it even went ahead - a light show without electricity wouldn't have been much fun!). We have requested a refund but both the organiser and Tripadvisor have refused to engage on the subject - or shed any light on the situation. Not their finest hour!
Dear Gavin, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that the circumstances surrounding the power outage in Amsterdam affected your plans for the Boat Amsterdam canal cruise. We understand that the disruption earlier that day caused inconvenience throughout the city, especially when travelling with a larger group and a guest with mobility issues. However, according to the official updates, the power outage in Amsterdam had been fully resolved by approximately 4:00 PM, and telephone networks were operational again before the departure of your cruise. We would also like to clarify that no message or notification was received from your group prior to departure regarding your inability to attend the Amsterdam canal cruise. As your reserved seats remained held for your party of eight guests, these places could not be offered to other visitors. Had we received contact in advance, we would of course have gladly looked together with you for a possible solution or alternative arrangement. While we understand your disappointment, the cruise itself operated as scheduled that evening. We nevertheless appreciate your feedback and are sorry that your visit to Amsterdam did not go as planned.
Wonderful experience and staff highly recommended thank you don’t hesitate just book it. Something special about being on the water
Goose and Lex were the best hosts ever! So friendly and helping and made our experience so great. Lex was a phenomenal boat captain and Goose was great at being interactive and showing us around the city. 1000000/10 would recommend and do again! Was very worthwhile.
I did this with my 8 year old daughter. We both really enjoyed it! Luke the tour guide was fantastic! So funny and enthusiastic! Harry the captain was also a gent! Also thought our boat was a lot nicer than every other one! Large windows were great! And the option to go outside also a plus! Highly recommend!
Worth the cost for the ride and guide alone, add in the drinks which they make you feel welcome to have as many as you’d like.
The pickup point was both accurate and very obvious. All the staff were prompt and really friendly, as well as accommodating. The boat was heated and lit well so sunset was a great time to do it and not at all uncomfortable. Drinks and refills were free and there was a toilet on board.
Amazing trip with Harry and Luke! Thank you for the energy and the good vibes, we had a lovely tour of Amsterdam by night (and many drinks).
Great! Very interesting and beautiful Flo was are guide and he his so knowledgeable, nice and amazing
Great guides and comfort way of seeing the city, light festival made it even better. Nice and cosy even though it was freezing outside, often asked if you would like a drink too. Great experience, def worth doing when in Amsterdam
