Wonderful boat trip made under the guidance of skipper Michel. This man is a jewel. Wonderful stories you hear from a true connoisseur of this city. Safe through all those beautiful canals. It was really enjoyable. Thank you, Michel.

Jasmine and Lode were amazing! We booked the tour last minute and had an amazing time. Jasmine was so insightful and knew how to answer all of our questions. She also took the time to suggest some great restaurants for dinner. Would 100% recommend :)

We are a family of 5 and we missed the 2:40pm booking because we got lost going to Amstel 51. We eventually arrived at 3:40pm and I asked Jasmin if it was possible to go on the 4pm tour. To my surprise she said it was no problem at all. So we got on the boat and we thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Jasmin and Michel were very informative and funny. (Michel was the captain.) The tea, coffee, water and soft drinks were free. It was an amazing experience and we are so grateful to Michel and Jasmin for accommodating us on the later tour. I recommend this experience for anyone that is interested. 5 stars to the crew!! Thank you so much for a pleasant tour! 👍😊

A small but nice tour. The small group size makes it more personal. The heated seats are very pleasant, especially on fresher days. The food is also top!
