This trip was delightful. Our guides (i am terrible with names and have forgotten theirs) were fantastic. They were charming, knowledgeable, and gave a great tour. They gave great advice about where to go after our tour (best Thai food in the city- yes please!) and I always love a boat driven by a female captain. The boat was smaller than many we passed so we got a personalized experience. The boat itself is not a “fancy” as some I’ve seen but it was very comfortable. The pancakes were unexpectedly delicious. I can’t recommend this enough.
Definitely worth it

This canal trip was wonderful!! The dutch pancakes were amazing, a nice breakfast portion cooked fresh with butter and icing sugar and a choice of drink. The guide Chafelli was very knowledgeable and friendly. I booked this with my partner and we ended up being the only two who had booked for that day so it was a lovely intimate experience on a comfy boat, with a rain cover. We passed other larger cruises, and felt that we were definitely glad we went for a smaller boat where we were able to chat back and forth and ask any questions to the guide. We had already wandered along the canals, but it was definitely different to experience it from the water and learn about the history of Amsterdam
Just book it you won’t regret it

Great canal ride. The guide arrived on time at the designated location. There were only 2 couples booked today, so it was like a private tour. The boat was clean and well equipped for the rain we were supposed to get. Drinks were included and the small sampling of pancakes were absolutely amazing. Mostly we enjoyed the low Keynes’s of the trip, as well as the tour guides knowledge of the city it was a water tour as well. Highly recommend!
Great tour, highly recommend.

I bet you did not know about this one. Even my relatives staying in Amsterdam had no clue of this cruise. It's an absolute joy . The Pancakes were surprisingly excellent and with a choice of toppings. The staff was welcoming and courteous.
