Really the best way to see Amsterdam...on the water with a local!

5.00This was not disappointing to say the least. We were able to take in so much about the city but also had a wonderful guide who was a college student that had such great knowledge about things but also a humor and candor that was quite entertaining in our inquisitive quest to understand our different cultures. The boat was comfortable and even dropped us off right in front of our hotel. It was nice to get out of the chaos on the streets and just enjoy the city in a different light. We were only two couples but this would be a great tour for any party up to 12.
