Wonderful cruise through the Amsterdam lights. The crew were very kind and ensured that drinks were topped up multiple times throughout the time spent on the water. They were very knowledgeable and answered many questions

It was absolutely wonderful — both the light festival itself and the tour guides. Super friendly and personable! I would definitely do it again anytime.

This is our first visit to Amsterdam and this was a great way to see Amsterdam from the canals and learn a bit of history all while enjoying unlimited cocktails. Lex was our guide and he did a great job sharing the history and answering our questions. Seeing the illuminations was a bonus! Highly recommend.
