Berend and Ties were the best! We learned so much about Amsterdam, all told with great humor and very interesting stories. Our tour was at 5:30, but we got stuck in traffic. Not to worry, Ties was very flexible in changing our booking to a later time, which relieved us of a huge amount of stress. It started raining as we began the tour. But Berend and Ties were well prepared with umbrellas for everyone. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to experience Amsterdam’s canals in a very special way. Thank you for a truly memorable experience!

The driver & guide were both great- very friendly & personable. We bought tickets ahead of time but the tour was not full, so it was very comfortable & nice to have a small group. We liked that the boat was open and small, compared to the large boats with tons of people. We both the unlimited beer/wine plus cheese option, but we could have skipped the cheese. There are lots of canal tour companies to choose from, and it was hard to determine which to book, and I am glad we picked this one. I would even go in the same tour again, it was interesting & a nice way to see the city & enjoy the weather.

Jimmy was informative on parts of the city we passed. Was sold as unlimited wine and cheese. We received a small bowl of cheese cubes between us that wasn’t refilled. We were told once onboard it was three wines per person, we only received two.
