Reviews
Dog friendly staff!
cla_lo_9, 27-10-2022
I was there with my family and my little dog and the staff was amazing! They were very friendly with all of us and very much prepared about the history of the city, I had a great time spending part of my trip to Amsterdam with them! They also gave us drinks whenever we needed and always asked if we were enjoying the ride, I would totally recommend their service to anyone who wants to relax and know more about the history of this beautiful city! Best cruise ever
Amsterdam Canal Cruise
Epimentel01, 25-10-2022
I am glad I did the canal cruise. It gave me an over view of the city and found interesting places, tips and insights. The boat skipper was knowledgeable, professional and fun!
Amazing experience
Jenny_L, 12-10-2022
The guides on the boat Oscar and Firla were very informative and made the experience very enjoyable plus travelling through the canals of Amsterdam was very picturesque.
Relaxing, Friendly, Informative
Manda-7, 30-10-2022
We were so glad that we bypassed the larger boats that populate the canal network and instead chose BoatAmsterdam. We got a smaller, open boat with a personable and knowledgeable guide for company and a complementary drink. This hour-long trip, which encompasses many of the city's highlights, is highly recommended.
Lovely ride, needed a bit more narrative!
MPH3356, 17-10-2022
The ride was lovely, the 2 skippers were very nice, the beer/wine were cold and unlimited, the narrative was light due to the “hostesses” called in sick that day so the skippers had to conduct the tour, it was hood but we would have liked more narrative and history about the Amsterdam.
