Recommended: Amsterdam Light Festival with Rederij Paping - What a nice experience to experience the Amsterdam Light festival with Rederij Paping. We had booked a private 90-minute tour for our team. Everything was well organised: from the first communication moment to the end of the tour. Skipper Deep was extremely well informed about all the objects we sailed past. Highly recommended!

Christmas Light Cruise - There were several tour options to choose from, and we picked right!!. The lights were beautiful, but the Captain and working our way through the canals was FABULOUS. We were a family of six, and the Capt. was so accommodating with my parents (in their 70's) and family members with hip and knee issues, getting in and out of the boat -he took such good care of everyone. He made sure we got the pictures we needed/wanted. The Capt. was knowledgeable, answered all of our off the wall questions; simply put... he took care of us and made sure this trip was go home and talk-about worthy. I highly recommend this tour.

Fabulous - A family of four, kids aged 13 and 11, and we all loved this cruise. We took the tour on Christmas Eve and it was one of the highlights of our holiday. Great snacks and drinks and our guide was friendly, chatty and knowledgeable. This personal touch made it so much better than the other cruises. Thanks for a fabulous time.

A great way to experience the city - We very much enjoyed these 2 hours. It was a small boat cruise with a friendly atmosphere (unlike other boats we passed by along the way that were packed) and drinks & snacks on board and a very interesting skipper. We learned so much!

Canal cruise at night - A canal cruise of Amsterdam is a must. Doing it at night with the lights of the city was outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, the snacks and the heated seats. A great trip!
