Fantastic experience - Nice small boat with heated seats, blankets and lovely mulled wine, perfect for a cold winters day. Captain was excellent, very informative. The small boat made for a nice personal experience.

Perfect dog friendly cruise! - Fabulous trip around Amsterdam! Even in light drizzle we were comfortable with heated seats, snuggly blankets and mulled wine! Our guide was lovely, he answered our questions and was very engaged but didn’t drone on. Essentially for us, we were allowed to bring our small dog along. A perfect length trip to see some sights and learn something of Amsterdam past and present!

Fantastic tour of Amsterdam Light Festival - There are so many companies to choose from! If you prefer smaller groups, maximum of 12, this is absolutely the company for you. Jamie was brilliant!! Friendly, knowledgeable about every light, the history of Amsterdam but not overpowering. Very comfortable boat, with blankets, heated seats, gluhwein, soft drinks, all included in the price. There is a reason for his 5 star rating - absolutely faultless tour in every way - highly recommend!

Great tour, amazing captain - We randomly picked Amsterdam Boat Adventures for the Christmas light tour and we were so lucky to get Joao as a captain. His enthusiasm was infectious and knowledge was admirable, great experience all round! Extra points for the seated heats & gluhwein

Excellent Evening - We had reserved a group canal cruise for the Festival of Lights. However, no one else booked so we ended up having a private canal cruise. Our guide was waiting on us when we arrived. He was friendly and gave us a description of the interpretation of each artist's piece as we cruised by it

Simply the Hammer - Absolutely impressive and Joan was a super skipper. Anyone who wants to experience the city from the water on a tour far from the mass tourist boats should not miss this tour. Top boat, Mega friendly skipper with many nice anecdotes about Amsterdam. Anyone who books something else is to blame for themselves 😉 Thanks Joan disease unforgettable tour Stephan
