Amsterdam Canal Cruise - We have done many Canal cruises over the years in Amsterdam. This was one of the best. Saw places we have never seen, the captain was informative and good snacks. We would definitely do it again and will send our friends.

Fabulous experience- very relaxing way to spend an afternoon. - Fabulous canal cruise experience this afternoon. The captain imparted his extensive knowledge of the canals bringing to life the history of Amsterdam.Due to the size of the boat he is able to navigate into the smaller canals in the old part of the city. He provided a large selection of drinks and Dutch snacks. Highly recommend this wonderful 2hr cruise, more of a boutique experience.

This is the canal cruise to book! - Sebi is the perfect host to take you through the deep history of Amsterdam's canals, effortlessly ensuring you have the most comfortable experience with local snacks and beverages while taking in the impressive fews from his boat, Giuliana. After completing our journey, we could absolutely see why there was a repeat guest in our group; the atmosphere that Sebi and his team have created is truly unforgettable, and was the perfect start to our short holiday in Holland. Our 2.5-year old daughter was well accommodated for as well, which was greatly appreciated after a long evening of travel prior to our embarkment. Thank you again Sebi for a wonderful memory for us all!

Best Canal Tour….Ever! - We very much enjoyed our tour with Sebi on 8/21/24. This excursion was perfect! Sebi’s boat is small and supports an intimate experience and a chance to experience small canals in the very center of Amsterdam. He has a great personality and knows so much about this beautiful city. Thanks again for a great afternoon.

Unforgettable boat trip – an absolute highlight! - Our experience with the boat trip was simply sensational! From the first minute everything was perfectly organized. What was really great was that despite my handicap in my knee, I was immediately and completely uncomplicatedly helped in/out. The boat itself was in perfect condition, clean and comfortable. It was obvious that a lot of emphasis is placed on maintenance and care. The route of the ride offered beautiful views of Amsterdam. Also a highlight was the catering on board. The small food and drinks offered were of the highest quality and were lovingly prepared. Particularly noteworthy was the professionalism and friendliness of Sebi. The captain was extremely nice and very helpful when boarding, which made the start of our trip particularly enjoyable. He has created a very pleasant, relaxed and warm atmosphere. You immediately noticed that he is passionate about the cause and that he cares about offering his guests an unforgettable experience. Overall, this boat trip was an absolute highlight and an experience I can highly recommend to anyone. It was a perfect mix of relaxation and information. Many thanks to the entire team for this wonderful time – we will definitely come back!
