Bike tour was great. Canal Tour was so-so

4.00We had a great day biking around Amsterdam and taking the canal cruise. I give the bike part 5 stars, our guide Clare was great and so funny. She tailored the tour for our needs. The canal tour is what has lowered the rating. I found the guide not very informative and he didn’t tell us a lot about what we were saying, he told us to look up stuff on the internet later.
Tour was great in spite of the weather!

4.00Clara was a great, knowledgeable and funny guide who tactfully navigated us on about 10 miles of Amsterdam streets and paths through torrential downpours and 30 mile an hour winds.
Great guide with Richard....

4.00Great guide with Richard. Bikes could have been more comfortable and various choices. Best way to see the city. Be aware of surroundings.
Ok but no real Dutch insights or enthusiasm

3.00We toured Amsterdam by bike. We were a group of 8 so pretty easy for the guide. The whole business and guide was Spanish which was a bit disappointing when you look for local insights about Dutch customs. The information we got were pretty basics. There was a lack of enthusiasm or deep experience from the whole experience. We asked a lot of questions but after a while it got a bit annoying to always ask. Nothing personal but I went on many other guided tours (much cheaper ones too) and this one was my least pleasant
Excellent bike Tour of Amsterdam
