Perfect Birthday Cruise with the Best Skipper!

5.00We had the most wonderful experience with The Boat Boys in Amsterdam. It was just the three of us, celebrating my friend’s birthday, and everything about the trip felt special. Our skipper, Robertino, was absolutely fantastic - so warm, attentive, and professional. From the very start, he asked what kind of experience we’d like, and he struck the perfect balance between sharing insights and giving us space to enjoy the canals together. We adored the route he chose for us - a beautiful mix of iconic sights and quiet stretches that felt like our own private Amsterdam. What made it even more memorable was how kind he was to drop us off close to our next destination, which made the whole evening seamless. This was such a memorable way to celebrate, and I’m already looking forward to booking again later this year to share the experience with family. I can’t recommend Robertino and The Boat Boys enough!
Perfect way to see Amsterdam!

5.00My wife and I had a fantastic time on our tour with Scott. It was so nice to have the boat to ourselves. Yes, it's more expensive than taking a larger tour boat and yes it's worth it! Scott was really knowledgeable about the history of Amsterdam and the architecture.
Phenomenal family experience

5.00The booking process was quick and easy. The company responded right away with information of where to meet and add on options. The boat, Undine, was perfect for the six of us. Our captain/guide, Cedric (apology if I get the name wrong), was excellent. He shared many interesting facts and was able to answer all our questions. It was a great activity. We glad we chose this company
A fun boat ride for our family

4.00The view of the Amsterdam canal was amazing. The boat is very new cozy and clean. The appointment point is very easy to find . we can bring some snacks and drinks to the boat. No any problem was found during the trip. The only comment is the captain should explain more about Amsterdam as we are foreigners but his service is perfect . Everything is good. I recommended this brand.
Highly recommended!

5.00The guide was extremely pleasant and provided great information. We loved the historic boat and the feeling of being catered to. There was enough space for the eight of us to move around and be comfortable. A cozy, intimate and unique tour on a cold November afternoon.
