We had a great time seeing Amsterdam from a different perspective after walking the city all day. The captain, and captain-in-training, were very friendly and offered the right amount of conversation, insights about the city history, and service that made the evening very enjoyable. The food was very good, just the right amount and pacing to enjoy conversation and the sights. I highly recommend this activity for anyone visiting the city.

Amazing and Unforgettable

This boat ride was an amazing ride and to top it off Joost was a fantastic host & captain. It’s hard to describe with words how enjoyable he made the dinner + cruise such an unforgettable experience. I learned so much about Amsterdam culture in those two hours then in my entire trip, and the food was tasty and lovely as well. Thank you Boat Boys & Joost for an unforgettable experience! -Joshua

Unforgettable Romantic Experience in Amsterdam!

We had an absolutely amazing night! The boat was beautiful, offering the perfect setting for a romantic evening. Mark, our skipper, was incredible – so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely great to chat with. He really made the experience feel personal and relaxed. Seeing Amsterdam from the water was mesmerizing. The views were stunning, and it gave us a whole new appreciation for the city’s charm and beauty. This was hands down the best romantic date experience we’ve had in Amsterdam – intimate, unique, and truly memorable. We can’t recommend it enough! To top it all off, the food from the restaurant was outstanding – cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious.

Overpriced and average. Saved in part by guide.

Our captain and tour guide, Sven, was very knowledgeable and engaging. He was the best part of the tour. The food was average. The tour was overpriced.

Operator response

Good day Dean, thank you so much for your valuable feedback. We have spoken to Sven and just like our other captains, we always check with guests if they like the food and we did not hear any complaints about it during the tour. Otherwise we always try to fix it right at the spot and let the restaurant prepare a different dish. Unfortunately, we didnt get the chance during the tour to do so. We have reached out to you separately to offer you a compensation and you are more then welcome to get in touch with us regarding this matter. Regarding the pricing, please keep in mind you have booked via a third party platform, which leads to higher prices and you have booked an all inclusive offer which includes red wine, white wines, prosecco beers and sodas. We are sorry to hear it didnt fulfill your expectations but we hope you get the quality you deserve on your next Amsterdam trip.

Great experience!

Quick and easy contact via Whatsapp. Boat was great, nice captain who knew a lot of nice things about the city and the artworks in the Amsterdam Light Festival. I was with my girlfriend and they had made sure the setting on the boat was super romantic, with nice soft background music and candlelight. Definitely recommended!

Operator response

Hartelijk dank voor uw geweldige beoordeling! We zijn blij te horen dat u het contact via WhatsApp snel en gemakkelijk vond. Het is fantastisch dat u en uw vriendin genoten hebben van de romantische setting op de boot, compleet met sfeervolle muziek en kaarslicht. Onze kapitein is inderdaad gepassioneerd over de stad en het Amsterdam Light Festival, en we zijn verheugd dat hij zijn kennis met u heeft kunnen delen. We waarderen uw aanbeveling enorm en hopen u in de toekomst weer te mogen verwelkomen voor een andere onvergetelijke ervaring!

Great Trip!!!

The trip was amazing, what a great, intimate way to see the city!!! The boat (Ritz) is a beautiful old classic that is in pristine condition. Our guide Jost was very informative and friendly. I will definitely be coming back and would definitely recommend adding it to your list of things to do in Amsterdam.
