A small group size ensures an personal experience and plenty of time for questions.

Very good cruise. Brian was fantastic is sharing about the city and canals. We had wine and cheese and crackers. They were great. We all had a great time. Couldn’t have asked for any more. Would highly recommend this tour. Worth much more than we paid.

This was honestly the best tour I've ever been on! The boat was very nice and comfortable and Brian was a wonderful guide; friendly, informative, super knowledgeable, and very passionate about Amsterdam. We learned the history of the city along with personal anecdotes Brian added in. The best way to see Amsterdam, highly recommend!
