The best canal tour in Amsterdam. The evening canal cruise with Captain Dave was outstanding!Captain Dave was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer our questions about Amsterdam. He also provided recommendations on where to eat and visit while we were in Amsterdam. Dave was also very fun and humorous, which made the canal tour even more enjoyable. The tour boat was awesome! It's a classic boat that has been converted to electric power so it was very quiet and had no fuel or exhaust smell. It was one of the only tour boats we found that actually had a restroom on board. The boat was heated, had large windows that didn't obstruct the view but kept you warm, and also slid down so it was felt like the open air boats when the weather cooperated. There is also an outdoor area with seating and a table which was nice and private. They also provided alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and snacks for no cost. My girlfriend and I were both really impressed with Dave and the canal tour, and plan to return later this month for the evening light tour.

Best Option in Amsterdam For Canal Cruises I highly recommend Captain Dave for Canal Cruises. What sets him apart from all the other canal cruise options is that he has a very unique boat and he is very engaging, interesting, and entertaining as a guide. This was our favorite of many tours in Amsterdam.

Cruising the Amsterdam canals. Simply amazing. Our boat captain, Tony, was very informative on everything Amsterdam, and interacted with all of us board seamlessly. The small boat makes the trip personal. Coffee, orange juice, smoothie, or even alcohol was available, along with a small snack. I would easily do another trip if I had time. No hesitation in recommending these guys. Thank you Tony.

Hopped on the early morning cruise and wow…what a great way to see the sights! The coffee, juices, tea and sugar bread were a special touch! Thanks again!

Captain Dave was great. Excellent and entertaining narrative of the canals and their history. Beautiful and very comfortable boat. Great value and would highly recommend.

Best way to see the sunrise over the sleepy canals of Amsterdam. Absolutely lovely boat and captain with many interesting stories and gorgeous morning views of the just waking city. What a wonderful way to start our day's adventures.

Best tour and guide and amazing start to my Amsterdam trip The best start to my few days in amsterdam. Lovely boat and only the 9 of us so a good size group. There was plenty of fresh drinks and sweet bread on offer and the captain was really knowledgable and friendly. The canal trip lasted 1.5hrs and was lovely to go through the canals on the ex-royal boat. We saw a few of the other bigger company boats which looked too big to fit in the canals we went through and looked un-friendly in comparison.Would definitely do a canal tour through Captain Dave again when I bring family and friends to amsterdam. Highly recommend doing this on your trip to Amsterdam!

This is a must-do experience for all first time visitors to Amsterdam! Even though it was cloudy during my trip, the sights from the canal were still magnificent, and the storytelling was top notch. We appreciated all the drinks and snacks provided to us as well. Next time I visit, I’m definitely doing this again!

Amazing experience and learnt so much too Fantastic morning cruise in a beautiful boat whilst being given really interesting information about the history of Amsterdam Also had some amazing ‘bread’ that was incredible and not like anything we had eaten before but apparently Dave collects this each week so that his clients can enjoy during the tiller cruises Overall would highly recommend and well worth 90 minutes of your time whilst visiting Amsterdam

Excellent morning tour Hassan was entertaining and knowledgeable. The tour was our favorite activity while visiting Amsterdam. Would highly recommend!

Brought our two littles (5 and 3) and we all enjoyed! It was definitely more for an adult crowd, so children struggled to sit through the talking portion, but our captain did a nice job incorporating them. Drinks and snacks were great and we learned a lot!

Wonderful private tour with a fun and knowledgeable skipper! Our 2 hours private tour with the beautiful "Jonckvrouw" (Saturday November 2nd, 2024) was more than complete by the fun and knowledgeable skipper Hassan. He sailed us (6 adults and 2 young teens) through the Amsterdam canals with ease and no question remained unanswered. Highest recommendations!!

Best canal cruise Best canal tour ! Very entertaining and informative ! Super nice and excellent captain (captain young )! Sugarbread was awesome ! Everyone should do this tour

Dave was nice and very funny, very real, the tour was very informative, the food was good 🙂 everything went smoothly and the whole experience of cruising Amsterdam canals in the early morning is precious. Recommended.

Best boat tour ever Thanks for a great tour on a wonderful boat together with the perfect captain. This 100 year old boat is absolutely amazing and we have got so many information from our captain.

Highly recommended Canal Boat Tour I read about this canal boat tour before booking and I have to say it lived up to the blog I had read. It was a great time with great people and our guide Hassan was amazing. He was friendly, entertaining, and took the time to explain the history behind Amsterdam and gave some nice recommendations. If you are thinking about doing a canal boat tour, pick this one!

Our tour guide Hassan was incredible! His charismatic and playful energy, vast knowledge of Amsterdam, and we'll stocked drinks made this tour unforgettable. The boat was comfortable and warm, the sights were great. Highly suggest an evening tour to see some beautiful lights.

Excellent tour of Amsterdam on the canals - great mix of history with a very personable and hilarious host. Excellent value for the fantastic boat, drinks, and snacks. Hassan you knocked it out of the park - thank you for a great evening canal tour!

A Great Way To Spend The Morning! Spending the morning on peaceful canals with a knowledgeable and entertaining guide in a gorgeous historical boat is a perfect way to start an Amsterdam holiday! Five-star experience!

Captain Roman went out of his way to accommodate us which went a long way to make our trip exceptional. He was masterful in navigating the canals, all the while providing us with entertaining stories along the way. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to tour the canals.

Such a great way to see the canals of Amsterdam! It’s worth the extra money to go on a small tour. Roman was a wonderful guide and a very skilled captain. Highly recommend.

The BEST boat tour in Amsterdam! Our captain for the tour was Hussain who was so friendly. He came and found us on the other side of the street as we had arrived early and were just sitting and waiting. This meant we got chance to chat to him and find out a little about the boat’s amazing history! The boat itself was beautifully furnished and had a large covered area (with windows that came down) and a small outside area at the back.There were 11 people on our trip which made it feel intimate. It also meant we didn’t have to listen to a commentary through headphones or not be able to hear it at all like on some of the larger boats. Out tour lasted 90 min and absolutely flew by. On board there were a range of drinks and some sugar bread which was nice. Captain Hussain had a great personality and told so many stories about the area and its history. We were also given some recommendations for lunch/dinner. Thank you so much for a fab time!

Great experience Small group trip on the canals, with lots of information and history imparted from the Captain. The small groups made asking questions easy

If you’re looking at booking a boat trip, don’t hesitate to book this one! Hassan was a fantastic host, gave us lots of history and interesting facts through his excellent storytelling.
Being on the 6pm cruise, we had the privilege of starting in the light and finishing in the dark, seeing the beautiful sunset sky.
Hassan had high energy and it meant that everyone had a great time and we made new friends. These are experiences that are definitely more unique to these more personable boat trips that the large operators. Thank you so much!

Great river tour The entire experience was great! The vessel is well maintained and comfortable. We enjoyed the food and beverages that were provided. The captain was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly. We really enjoyed it!

Loved our time with Capt Hassan, highlight of our time in Amsterdam. If you’re looking for a canal cruise in Amsterdam, book this now! So much better than the “sad” customers on the large boats listening to a recording. Hassan made us feel welcome, had great stories, and was engaging throughout. Thanks again!!

Very tranquil boat ride. I recommend going as the sun is setting. The captain was very lively and informative. Interacted well with his guest. We laughed, smile and were in aww by the uniqueness he presented to us of Amsterdam Thanks again for the awesome experience!

Had such a wonderful morning boat ride with Hassan. Top bloke, super charming, friendly, knowledgeable, resourceful and very good with remembering names. We were only 5 so it was such a personalized tour. Would do it again and again.

Cannot recommend enough!!! The tour was an amazing/relaxing way to see to sightsee and learn more about Amsterdam. Our tour guide Roman was super friendly and a great storyteller! The boat was very comfortable, and the refreshments/snacks were lovely as well.
Highly recommend to anyone visiting Amsterdam!!

Really enjoyable tour with Jan - comfortable boat and lots of great stories about Amsterdam, its history and the Netherlands today. Really highly recommended.

A lovely personalised cruise - forget the big ugly commercial ventures and do this one. A great cruise, this is the one to pick if you are looking for a unique experience, friendly and great local knowledge and great story telling. A beautiful and comfortable boat, everything was done to ensure a great experience for everyone. Great morning tea as well. They even went above and beyond to ensure a few late passangers didn't miss the trip.

Varm velkomst og sådan en fin og intim båd. Super god og vidende kaptajn og han var meget imødekommende overfor spørgsmål. Kan kun varmt anbefale denne tur🤩
