Wonderful stroll down the canal

Captain Bryan was absolutely fantastic and entertaining. He was ready for us outside of our hotel (W Amsterdam) which was great because we were literally in Amsterdam for 24 hours and the less walking the better. The boat was ready with wine and cheese plates. He gave us a lot of great information about Amsterdam, its history and culture. Our group loved it!!! would recommend! We went at sunset which was really romantic.

Extraordinary Private Canal Cruise

My fiancée and I had a thoroughly enjoyable time cruising the canals of Amsterdam with Captain Spronk! He has extraordinary knowledge about the history of Amsterdam. We loved that we cruised at a leisurely pace while having the delicious cheese, nuts, tomatoes, strawberries, chocolate and our choice of drink! The experience was well worth the price to have a lovely private cruise! We highly recommend cruising with Captain Spronk and we shall remember it with fondly as one of the highlights of our trip!!

Terrific Introduction to Amsterdam

This canal cruise was the first thing my family did upon arriving in Amsterdam, and it was one of the highlights of our visit. Captain Spronk was friendly and informative, and his historic boat was absolutely beautiful. I can't think of a better introduction to the city than sipping champagne while cruising the canals.
