The tour was really lovely, the tour guide was very nice and gave us lots of tips and information about Amsterdam, what food places to go to as well. There was so much alcohol on the boat and also soft drinks. It was a really lovely experience for our first night in Amsterdam. Would 100% recommend.

It was an amazing time had a blast and the crew and other people were a vibe. Good value for money with the drinks. Worth it if you are in Amsterdam. Great way to see the city.

The Captain and host were very friendly and kind. The information was very interesting but they also made it fun. We had a wonderful time and would strongly recommend this trip. I am a wheelchair user and access to the boat from the Red Light District was easy and everyone very helpful.

It was super fun the guys that were in the boat the skipper and guide were incredibly funny and kind. I went by myself and they made it such a welcoming experience. Plus the facts and info was good. All around I enjoyed it and I’m going again with friends so they can experience it.

This was the best boat tour I have ever been on in my entire life. The host and skipper were incredibly kind and blessed us with an amazing amount of information. They were beyond fantastic and are beyond over qualified!
