It was a nice tranquil tour with audio infoation in two languages (Dutch and English). Unfortunately foe us there was a very loud extended family of 8 who talked LOUDLY throughout the ride, making it unpleasant for all the ofher passengers. I wish the driver had asked them to lower their voices at least. The covered option was nixe as there was a cold wind starting up.

Driver was pleasant and funny. Enjoyable way to pass just under an hour learn about the sights along that canal in Haarlem.

A good 50 minute tour of the canals. Our driver/guide was good although a little hard to understand the English.
