This monastery stood at the height of the later Keizersgracht outside the Regulierspoort.

5.00We just had a lovely tour with Ramco and Marta who were the perfect balance of being informative but also bringing humour and fun to the tour. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for an intro to the city.
So much fun… even in the rain.

5.00Marta and skipper were amazing
Tour, staff, and boat were great; inebriated groups were not.

2.00The tour itself was pretty great. The staff were kind and it was a nice way to end a busy day in Amsterdam. However, I would NOT recommend the unlimited drinks option. It seemed some groups just used the experience to drink as much as possible and thus were quite boisterous. Our guide often struggled to talk over the noisy, inebriated groups resulting in confusion, mishearing, or completely missing the Amsterdam facts that she had. I'm really enjoying learning the stories of these cities as we have nothing this old back home. The staff, boat, and service was great. It was truly just the other guests that made it less fun.
Amazing!!

5.00From the point of deciding to use Flagship to the point of disembarking, the experience has been excellent. First, I needed to ask some questions about routes/pick ups etc so that it would fit with our day plan. The team could not have been more helpful - prompt, accurate and friendly. Then I made an error with my booking - my fault - but they fixed it for me with no trouble at all and with no nasty 'change fees'. They also made sure I knew how to get my large party booked onto the boat through their system. So far, great experience and service. The cruise itself was as you would expect - a tour of the canals, key points of interest etc, but what made it for us was Milan, who was the host for the cruise. 20year old economics student, who basically treated us like we were in his home. He made us feel welcome, he was witty and pithy, nothing was too much trouble and we had an absolute blast as a result. Brilliant hosting, great tour and superb value for money all round. Highly recommended, well done Flagship - we would definitely book with you again!
