5.00We had a wonderful guided canal boat tour of Central Amsterdam today. Our guide Benjamin was very knowledgeable about the history of the city. His relaxed and fun style made the whole experience very enjoyable and memorable. Out of all the different canal boat operators in Amsterdam, we’re so glad we chose Pure Boats, and Benjamin was our Skipper. We can highly recommend this company if you are in Amsterdam and looking for a boat tour. You will not be disappointed.
