You have to give this a try - The captain was very knowledgeable and brought a bit of humour to his chats on the canals and the history of Amsterdam

I liked looking to all... - I liked looking to all the homes and overall city view also learned about living on a house boat and how much it cost

Boat trip Printing really enjoyed! - Today we had a family outing and had a boat tour with the boat "DRUKWERK". In addition to Harry Slinger's spoken explanation, our captain gave a lot of nice extra information about the city. He spoke to us in a very pleasant manner.
This boat trip is highly recommended.

Brilliant trip through Amsterdam’s canals. - We had an amazing tour through the canals of Amsterdam. Our skipper, Simon, was brilliant! He was very knowledgeable and witty. He took the time to talk to his guests personally and explained everything in an interesting and detailed manner. The tour was great, and we can’t recommend Simon highly enough.

Around the channels - Absolutely worth doing, even if not all the visually impactful constructions are described in the audio guide. It is difficult to decide on the choice of shipping company due to the huge offer. We chose the longest cruise (75') at the lowest cost (€15.50). In the end, at least judging by the hundreds of reviews read, they are all the same

Good but...deceiving message for the not english speaking people - lovely tour for the ones who speak english....in the booking option there is the option to select the language you desire for the commentary and i booked for italian, but the commentary was done just in english so the people with me which were italian didn't understand anything so the message on the booking is deceiving and i wouldn't have booked this tour if I knew that italian language was actually not an option. So be aware and for me thumb down unfortunately.

It was pretty boring.... - It was pretty boring. Could hardly hear the captain speak and he dint speak much anyway. Most of the information was recordings and the speaker and volume was horrible. The boat itself made so much noise that we could hardly hear anything when the recordings was going on. My kids dozed off as it was so boring.

Nice personnel and boat, horrible audio - The personnel and the boat are good. The audio is useless. Two separate customers asked for the volume to be turned up and it was still not clearly heard. The narrative cycles through all the languages requested so that one may or more likely may not be seeing what is being talked about. That multi-language format also means there is not that much information
