Lovely trip and beautiful lights - We had a lovely time on this cruise. The tour guide was great and the lights amazing. Small boat but they put all of the windows up so we had a clear view

Amsterdam light festival canal cruise - After a slightly unorganized start, the cruise was fab. Our hosts and captain Max.B and Daan were lots of fun and very informative.

A nice evening - A nice evening in Amsterdam. The light show is interesting and the staff were lovely, but the windows were small and a bit dirty and you’re fairly packed in with other people for the cost of the tour.

The tour guide was very... - The tour guide was very informative and the drinks and all was fun but the boat itself was very bad. The place was so cramped up and the seats were opposite to windows, so instead of seeing outside we are seeing other people drinking 😕

Not worth the time or money. If you do, insist on a boat with an all glass roof so you can see outside. - Unfortunately there weren’t many memorable moments. The onboard team was friendly and very attentive. There was a steady flow of drinks. There were many silent moments in between the location of the art installations. It was difficult to see some of the installations especially the hanging ones as there were no windows on the top of the boat. The regular canal cruise was so much better and so much more informative. Even in similar weather and in the evening we could see outside. Very disappointed. Tour company really appears to have been too greedy with this one with wrong choice of boat. The onboard team unfortunately wasn’t able to make up for the experience either. Too much quiet time and no energy onboard. You’re better off taking a regular night canal cruise and walking the streets to see the installations by yourself. You will certainly have much better views and not waste your money.

Dull and disappointing light trip - Our experience of this was very disappointing. Although the boat itself felt solid and professionally skippered, the tour was sadly lacking. The event was hosted and dominated by a gentleman called Flo, who spent the majority of the time flirting with American female passengers. It seemed like his personal floating chat up tour!! ... Idiot.! ... That spoiled the experience and we are not sure we saw more than 10 installations... we may have missed some because he was too busy acquiring phone numbers.
